An NFL insider rips Pioli for letting quality players go
The following quotes are from NFL scouts, coaches and front-office personnel, speaking on the condition of anonymity:
• “When you are $20 million-$25 million under the cap, you can’t afford to let a homegrown guy like Brandon Carr get out of the building. Carl Peterson drafted him in the fifth round — (GM) Scott (Pioli) didn’t draft him. (Carr) is a bona fide starter and he is young and you let him get away on his first contract without getting anything in return? Go and pay him, especailly if he is so far under the cap. You are going to bring in Stanford Routt, who is getting diced by whoever he is lining up against and expect the same results? Routt can’t cover himself up at night. He is like that great mule everyone wants to ride. They could have had their two corners locked up for at least 4-5 years with (Brandon) Flowers and Carr. Instead, Carr is down in Dallas having a good season. Brian Waters had a great year in New England last year. How many good years (in Atlanta) has Tony Gonzalez had now? Enough said.” http://www.profootballweekly.com/201...op-cornerbacks |

Well yes that + no QB + an incompetent coaching staff = disaster

This team is being killed by terrible QB play, terrible coaching and turnovers in bunch by any player really. This defense without Berry played great for the second half of last year, playing the likes of Brady, Big Ben and Rodgers. I'm not concerned about the defense once the turnovers can stop and going forward the next few years. Now, get a QB and a HC who has a brain. |

Javier is a LIABILITY in pass coverage, no matter where he lines up. He's a decent special teamer...who we used a 2nd rd pick on...the we got in exchange for Tony G. Buddha wept.

Flowers is the only guy that might be able to play inside out of the 3 IMO. I wouldn't mind if we had started originally playing him inside on 3rd down like Ladarius Webb or Antoine Winfield or when teams move their #1's inside (Detroit does this with Calvin quite a bit). Now, this isn't something to experiment throughout the season typically, but since this season is lost, I would give it a shot.

Yup. Except for the game against NE last year.

There was a lack of depth on that team, too (remember what happened when Lewis was hurt and McGraw started at safety??) The coaching staff in 2010 was just better at playing to the team's strengths and being WAY more imaginative in terms of manufacturing points. This team now still has some real good top-end talent, with no roster depth, no coaching direction or a decent front-office.

Yeah, I forgot about that.
It must've been an aberration.

Clearly. Welker was either tired or Javier turned into Revis.

I tried to sugar coat them letting Carr go, but it was obviously dumb as hell. Team's YPA allowed has skyrocketed this year. Obviously the turnovers are directly leading to the blowouts and 1-7, but everything is just stacking up to be the perfect shit storm.

I honestly think RAC is too overwhelmed by being the HC on this sinking rat trap to be an effective DC; he's now just going through the motions as a DC, calling what may have worked last year. Don't get me started on Daboll and this offense...

Then, midnight struck, his chariot turned back into a pumpkin, and he went back to being Javier Arenas.
