Well, moving on. It's hard for me to determine what the s**t is going on with our offense because it's always something new. Every week has been a completely different set of disasters. From missed blocking assignments, to RBs running through the wrong holes, to receiver drops, to purdy doing his best Jimmy impersonation. f**king strange year. If there was one piece of evidence that couldn't be blamed on anyone but the scheme it would be our YAC plummeting from first in the league to damn near 32nd. I can't think of a reason the defenders would be exactly at the catch point on every pass beyond them knowing our tendencies and placing themselves in the best position to limit our receivers YAC ability. The only other potential reason, which is more alarming than the Kyle theory, is that purdy regressed and isn't finding the appropriate YAC target.
edit: that also touches on your rhetorical question "is Kyle not scheming receivers open"
from that lens, we either have a purdy problem or a Kyle problem. I'd rather it be Kyle as I could justify him altering his playcalls to cover for injuries
I'm not going to sit here and blame kyle for not making PS players all pros.. maybe 1 or 2 guys can be a next man up type of deal like years past, but there can't be a next team up. The talent/execution level just isn't there, no team has starting caliber player as their 2nd/3rd stringers at every position. If you continue to get injured, it's tough to replace them.
Throw in all of the non-football issues of a player nearly shot to death, multiple Players and coach who had death in their immediate families, hold outs.. man you name it. it has been a crazy year.
it's going to take more than an off year of craziness for me to jump ship. s**t we have gone through this already and bounced back to the highest spot.. twice!
Edit: Kyle is still scheming guys open.. and it's the biggest detail of them all.
