I'm sure they worked on it, but it is still kind of a mystery why they've played this dumb this many games into the season. A bunch of the busted plays are away from Gilmore too, so you can't hang everything on the new guy. Though the 2014 team with Revis gave up 33 to the Dolphins and 41 to the Chiefs.
Like I said, it was implied Gilmore was the issue.
You can't agree to disagree that someone said something different than what they said. We can agree you are wrong.
It was a bad call.
No. we are discussing what was said. You don't like what was said so you created an alternate meaning out of thin air.We are disagreeing what the implication was, which is a subjective opinion. I believe they pointed out Gilmore as the weak link without explicitly stating it to be so. You don't. Hence the disagreement.
So when you get a hands to the face call you should tell the coaching staff to not call any more plays when you jam a receiver?I agree it was a bad call but after the first one he should have never had his hand anywhere his face so as not to give the refs a chance to call it.

It doesn't work that way. You jam the chest area and the player is trying to avoid the jam and the hands slide up.You can jam other places besides the face.
then you need to work on your technique, to get better at avoiding that. that's the battle, Gilmore lost it.It doesn't work that way. You jam the chest area and the player is trying to avoid the jam and the hands slide up.

Not to trample in your point but this is one of my frustrations. OL and DL win and lose battles in every play. It's probably 50/50 more or less.Good pod.
They hit on most of the issues.
One thing not talked about enough are the lines. Both are getting pushed around and move off their spots.
Plus according to the intelligent, astute, all-knowing Bill's fans, Gilmore is lazy and dumb as a box of rocks.

So everyone gets pushed around and moved off their spots because that is what the other guy is trying to do and he gets paid too.
When you win no one notices how often this happens and ignore it when you lose suddenly no one notices how often but point out the instances.
In a 40-7 win 100s of "bad plays" are made by individual players on the winning team.
I just wish people (not speaking to you just in general) would recognize this.
Someone posted a clip of branch bejng blocked on one okay and basically said see he isn't himself.
He was blocked like that many times last year too. Everyone is.
Right. A good analysis of OL/DL play is insightful but 95% of the commentary is made based up a play of two.I get what you're saying.
Generally offensive linemen don't "win" but rather survive a play but pass pro doesn't have to be passive.
I guess what I'm talking about is the consistency at which our lines are being moved. It's real and has been a problem every game this season.
Football comes down to Line play. QB, OL/DL are miles more important than the rest of the positions and its not close. WR, LB etc are all interchangeable to a point save for all time greats that have changed the game.
