first, a win is a win no matter how it comes. That being said, there are many trends I keep seeing and wish coaching would correct.
1. Lazar needs to prepare RT with better blitz plays. It's not that difficult to design a few plays and wrinkles to prevent RT from getting crushed. ie, use a 2 TE set, and the TE that does NOT see a rush or a blitz, step forward a yard or 2 to clearly open space where the LB's have blitzed from and turn around and catch a pass. This is blitz prevention 101, and a play I learned back in Jr High. Another is to swing your RB outside, again he may or not get the first down but the offense won't lose 10 yards! This is a Patriots staple.
2. Can't this team find a speedy, playmaker to handle returns? And not Landry! Again, this is football101.
3. Teach the LB's proper pass coverage. TE's and crossing patterns.
4. The RB swing pass on non blitzing downs shouldn't be run more than once or twice a game. NOT 10+
5. What happened to the TE's on this team? Seam routes and cross patterns are killers in the NFL, but for some reason this team has forgotten about the TE's.
Last one, this team has some players with ZERO football IQ and it's keeping the team from achieving success. Stupid, stupid plays. Attempting to catch a kickoff 6 yards deep and run it out. Not catching a punt at the 10, calling a long to develop deep passing play from your own 1 yard line. Talking trash and flicking the football at opposing players,
