I have a sneaking suspicion that GRob was being spoken to directly in that clip.

It was likely the entire offense I'd say. Mistakes aren't always just flags. The entire team had an uncanny ability of never being at the right place at the right time

So much cringe. Is that what happens during these so called "halftime adjustments"? You would think they would actually point out the top two or three issues and try to rectify that. Since they only have about 15 minutes, probably make the most of that time instead of jumping around swearing like insane monkeys.

But kudos for the song choice.

The offense did Todd no favors last year and he clearly got sick of it. I hope he comes out with his hair on fire this year so he can shut up everyone calling him a bust, one-hit wonder, etc.

I find it very hard to imagine that offensive coaching staff being capable of making half time adjustments. I expect any instructions from Fisher, Boras et al had about as much substance as Gurley's rant.

It must be frustrating to know you're repeatedly going to get hit within a heartbeat of receiving the hand off.

Exactly. Every halftime was the same thing, appealing to guys to man up and mash vs getting into the how's and why's they were being out-gameplanned. This is why effort was always there, but it didn't matter.

Everyone was disregarding him, and Boras. One ear out the other. New era lock your body and listen up.

Well, all things considered, it is nice to see someone taking a risk to light a fire....Gurley at least had the guts and relationship to attempt that...he won't need to this season.

Yeah.
I'm sure he followed that up with missing the few holes that were there.
All that "man up" I assume Boras was spewing is bullshit and not coaching.

That's what generally happens when you prioritize freak athleticism over intelligence in the draft.

I hope at the end of the day Gurley isn't soley in the "freak athleticism" column, cause the dude don't sound to smart in that tirade

You can only put the blame on Donnel and GRon just so far

Bennie....Bennie.....

(I'll still take #99 and Tree in the freak category all day long though)

Yep and freak athleticism DOES NOT mean you will ever be able to coach them up into being football players.

You should draft football players first and put them next to another football player and see what happens.

You end up with a team of football players rather than a bunch of pie-in-the-sky upside "maybes".
