Yeah, there are some real questions about the offensive coaching staff that need to be asked. The attention to detail issues are happening every single week.

And we keep hearing "well if we stop shooting ourselves in the foot and start executing, we'll be fine..."

But we're 3/4 of the way through the season and if anything these issues are getting worse.

I get on my kids about using the passive voice when they !@#$ something up. "Daddy my car broke. My room got messy. My sister got hit."

No, fellas - YOU broke the car. You made your room a mess. You hit your sister. These things didn't just happen - you did them.

There's a lot of passive voice being used w/r/t the offense. "The execution wasn't crisp" or "Key mistakes cost us" or "The timing/communication was off..."

Somewhere in this exchange they need to stop with the passive voice. And it doesn't have to be publicly but I question how much of it is happening privately when we're still seeing so much of it. It can't keep being "The timing was off" - no, it needs to be "Skyy rolled his route again and threw the timing off - he's not playing as many snaps next week". Or "the mistakes killed us" becomes "Toney had his head up his ass and didn't manage to line up correctly - have a seat, champ..."

No more passive voice. No more 'the mistakes happened' - now it needs to become 'X,Y,Z made the mistakes - here are the consequences...'
