Might slightly lower the coaching grade to a B-. I think McD needs to start showing more adjustments. The outside pitches in the running game and the WR screens in the passing game have not been working. I understand that we’re playing with backup guards and maybe we’re hesitant to run inside, but we were playing with backup guards against KC and still had our most success running inside.
I think we really need to come in with a fresh plan against the Jets D. They have too much speed and aggressiveness for us to rely on outside runs or slow-developing plays. I hope Berrios is back and we can utilize him on short, quick routes to pick up easy yards and keep us out of 3rd & longs. Same with Smythe and some short routes.
So much of this is dependent on our injury issues. We could really use Berrios, Hunt, Smythe, and Achane on Friday. I hope we get some positive updates later today.
