Thought it was, but you and me must just be high and wondered into the wrong thread, because everyone else including mods are just talking about nonsense.....

Heck, people talk about Mike Shanahan as a "WCO" guy because of his time in SF, and define his Denver Broncos' offenses as "WCO," yet the main thing they loved to do was run to set up the bootleg.

Yeah, people who define systems are talking about "verbiage," but that's stupid, and that's the whole point. They're not the same systems. Not in any meaningful way.

What the Patriots run today is pure football-killing nonsense. That's why they take scrap heap players and go to the conference championship game every year, if not the Super Bowl.

His whole passing game was designed to be an extension of the run game. Sure there would be games where they established the run, but Walsh passed to get the lead and then concentrate on running the ball in the second half of games on a worn down defense. Coincidently, the years where they ran more than passed was the championship years (every Super Bowl Walsh team had more runs than passes).

Also, now bootlegging your QB means you're not a WCO? Did you even watch, the Montana era Walsh teams? No QB moved more than Joe on designed pass plays.

The point is, athletics should not come down to freak'n brain power. This isn't chess.
lol, football is chess, any sports that includes a head to head battle, does demand some brain power due to the necessity to build a strategy and one has to implement smart tactical changes as well.
if you want to win in the NFL, or the champions league, athletic ability alone won't bring you nowhere. and sports at the highest level was never just about athletics. perhaps you should look up the definition of a successful sportsman.

Kyle Shanahan on Jimmy Garoppolo: "I can't promise that he'll play this year."

Why would you put him behind Tomlinson-Kil(QB)gore and Fu(cksup)co?

Don't buy it for a second.

Kyle is ready to win.

He will play against the Giants. Worse case scenario after the bye week.

"We didn't bring him here to save our season" ~ Kyle

Obviously lol. And you left out the rest of the statement which provides context.

Some of you are really reading too much into this coach speak.

Coach will start him when he is obviously a better option to start than CJ, which will likely be in time for the Giants game. After the Bye week at the latest.

It will be obvious he is light years ahead of CJ by the end of the week. Every player on the roster will realize it.

Im really not sure why some question this. There is no way they are just gonna ride CJ out the rest of the year.

When one player is a phenomenal talent, as Johnson was, and the other is not, as Hogan is not (wouldn't start for any other team in football), and the guy without the talent is the guy who succeeds, simply because he understands the system, there's a problem.

Being a talented receiver doesn't just mean, "ran a fast 40-time." Otherwise, Usain Bolt would be an incredibly talented receiver if he decided to play football.

Chad Johnson was incredibly quick, could separate on the dime, and had phenomenal hands and acrobatic ability/ball skills. Hogan has none of those things going for him. All he has is knowing the system.

When he was 23, not when he was 33.

Exactly, is Chad played his whole prime with Brady his stats would probably be about the same. If Hogan was playing with Kitna he probably wouldn't be looking as good as he is now. If he played with Palmer he'd still look pretty good.
We will win this week so the fan base can stfu and celebrate a lil and hopefully Shanny lies to us and says hell be ready to start soon when he really he wants to tank and be full go for OTAs

Which is why I won't be surprised to see Kyle change his mind about starting/playing him Sunday.

Who is saying hogan is a better wr then Chad? That's silly, he was into his 11th seaon when he went to NE. He didn't have his crazy athletic ability anymore and wasn't smart enough to understand the system plain and simple.... Stop acting like hogan is some unauthentic WR, he's more than fast for his size and one of the things that he actually is very very good at is getting separation and route running.

Jerry rice was never the biggest/fastest WR, but dude had crazy work eithic...but I guess you hated him too, him and Montana ruined the game with their work ethic and smarts....bill belichick is basically Walsh and is smarter than everyone else with schemes but he sucks based on what you're saying

Jerry Rice broke tackles and left people in the dust. Jerry Rice smoked people deep. Jerry Rice separated from man coverage with route running. Merely understanding the system didn't do this for him. He did the work with his incredible talent.

Jerry Rice would have started for every other team in football.

The Patriots, on the other hand, take journeyman scrap heap, feature it, and go to conference championship games and Super Bowls with it.

Chris Hogan couldn't even start on the Bills. He is not a good starting NFL receiver. But the Patriots could get him 100+ catches for 1200 yards if they wanted to.

Sounds ideal doe no? Who knows AZ can be planning their own low key tank... Arians probs retires so might as well try to hand them off a top 3-5 pick while he calls it quits.

Yea, could happen, but i think they give it to CJ this week. I expect CJ to see the majority of 1st team reps this week. Jimmy will get all the work starting next week and likely start against the Giants.

A 4th round rookie project from Iowa is not going to keep Jimmy G on the bench lol, and anyone who is saying "jimmy probably saying he wont play behind this oline" are full of s**t and obviously dont know jack s**t about Jimmy.

I promise you, Jimmy came in day one and took over this locker room as if it has always been his.

At this point the tank is less valuable than assessing Jimmy the rest of the season and letting him get his feet wet as a 49er. Time to start building for next season on the chemistry front.

I would be fine with winning a couple games if it means Jimmy G looks like a FQB, and the team looks happy and rallys behind him.

That is much more important to me than potentially dropping a couple of draft spots.

That's really not how it actually was, though. I mean, every team will be more conservative late in the game with the lead, but Walsh wasn't especially pass-happy early in games.

No, what I am saying is that the Broncos clearly did far more running to set up the pass when Shanahan was there. They famously would kill people with the run in their zone blocking scheme, and then when teams were thinking run, out comes the bootleg from Elway or Plummer. That's the opposite of "passing to set up the run."
