Yep.
He wouldn't be coaching anymore if that didn't work
Yes, but unlike Najee he actually saw the holes. Najees lack of vision was his greatest weakness. Not his speed. The play calling for him was also not his friend, but he still failed to cutbacks. Sounds like I am dogging him, but I think despite his issues he was good back but not the right back for what we tried to do with him considering those shortcomings.
Different times. At the time, Harbaugh was considered on the hot seat. A desperate move that paid off, but one that is only made out of desperation.
I think the play calling for him was his biggest setback, along with playing behind a garbage line for most of his time in the burgh. His lack of vision was also a huge problem. I didn't have as big an issue with the lack of speed because he made up for it with power when he was on his game, which is what you expect more from a back with his size. I don't know if the Chargers is the right fit for him, but I do think that he could succeed as a starter in the right system.
Yep you might as well build the trenches and swing at QBs while picking the BPA of needs. Not only is it a good approach but this team really isn’t a player away, ditto Tomlin. So in this regard trading down and up in the draft is warranted if needed.
Yeah it's hard to to evaluate anything with this team or even get that excited anymore with Tomlin as Head Coach.
So we are back to what we were last season. That is if A-Aron signs. Vet SB winning qb with one legit WR. Teams will again stack the box. Hopefully as you and others believe our rookie RBs vision will be the difference when running against these stacked boxes. So what are we shooting for? Harris averaged 4 yards a carry. Are we looking for 4.5 or 5 yards a pop now for Johnson? Dare I say 5.5 yards a carry or even 6? Are we looking at 1500 yards for him? What are the expectations?
You know this: Our O will not change, it will be the same predictable offense it has been for 8 years, nothing has or will change with Clown-lin in charge.So we are back to what we were last season.

I know if we evolve our Offense a bit it could/would help.
I would love to see Johnson come in and beast out. I just believe it has to be more than his vision for it to happen. Our Offense has to change and evolve. And that is on Tomlin.
And that is where I have my doubts.
Hopefully I am wrong. I have been hoping for years now though.

Remember that ONE game when they threw to the middle of the field? That will be the extent of the "new plan." They will throw on a few 1st downs and then that will be it: It will be back to rushing every 1st and 2nd down, throwing short or incomplete on 3rd and punting. That's it. Enjoy. As we head into the playoffs (if we are that lucky), it will be Clown-lin's run every 1st and 2nd, incompletion on 3rd, punt on 4th play book, lose 5 straight. That's all we get til he's gone.
Yeah. I just don't know anymore. From Pickett year one to year two I thought Tomlin would expand the offense. Open it up a bit more. Nope. Enter Fields and Russ. Again. Optimistic that we would open up the offense a bit. Again....nope. Now Rudy and possibly A-Aron. I have zero belief that we change our offense. I am counting on myself being wrong. Odds are though ....I am right. Unfortunately.
I think we can all agree even as a third rounder if he came in here and averaged 3.9 ypc we would all be disappointed.So we are back to what we were last season. That is if A-Aron signs.

It's like "How often are we going to be proven 100% wrong?" It's now so ingrained there is no denying it anymore. Clown-lin is going to coach with pea-his-pants fear, end of story. There is nothing new forthcoming. He coaches in total fear, there ain't gonna be anything new heading our way. He coaches in total fear. Afraid of turnovers. He's a total wussy. It's what we have to deal with until Art and Clown-lin are gone.
Go play on the parkway
At least you are not sending him blindfolded
So basically you are still sayin' Lamar jackson will never make it...
