Yep. I agree. Coaching goes a long way to help a team and/or to hurt a team. Our issues stem on both sides of the ball. Add in keeping a punter who probably should not have been on the team yet the NFL. Fingers crossed for the Steelers this season.
I think Van is nothing more than a 4 WR type option . I think Wilson could possibly be a 2 but probably a third option.
Again, Van jefferson started every game the season the rams won the super bowl, including the super bowl
I know his past but that didn’t help him last year. I think expecting something these free agents didn’t show last season might be a stretch. I hope I am wrong here of course.
I would argue Brady made the offensive players around him look great far more than that asshat BB did.
Never forget!!!Intercepting or scrambling opposing teams calls helps a lot too!
I hope you're right about Jefferson, that is just high praise for the guy. There are numerous teams who's No. 2 would have a chance to be our WR1. I just don't know how many teams would take Jefferson as their WR2 and feel good about it.
He hasn't been that guy since. People are fooling themselves with him.
I agree to some degree but coaching matters. Cowher won a 1 superbowl out of 2 seasons with Ben. The other season Ben didn't lose a regular season game.
Cowher never had to deal with a franchise QB on a second contract and the cap implications of that. Tomlin had to almost his whole tenure, after the first two years. I think people really miss that difference and the lack of depth it causes.
Like KC with Mahomes now?
They are winning despite that. Imagine if they had more cap space. Tomlin got us back to the big dance again and depth was already starting to become an issue. KC has overcome obvious depth issues because Mahomes is crazy good. I love Ben but I think Mahomes is better.
Folks attribute that success to the coaching in KC, even as coordinators get jobs with other teams.......ya cannot be serious and blame Ben for only 2 SBs?
No one understands the troubles 6million dollars come with
Partially, certainly not entirely. Injuries and bad luck played a huge part as well. Some poor personnel choices and coaching all contributed to it. Also being in a time frame with Manning and Brady had a huge impact on it.
He didn't get the Super Bowl until the Cap was in place. Revenue sharing was more than enough to make up for stadium differences. Since Cowher retired before Bens got his big contracts we will never know for sure. Noll was pretty much done when he had to deal with free agency.
