There's just no replacing something like that.

If they traded for Kupp it would probably be a different story, but my TB buddy doesn't think they're even trying to get Kupp.

But Coen is extracting the best version of Baker in his scheme, and I think Baker will continue to be successful this season, on a lesser scale.

You just nailed it with Coen... Slowic is green in his position also, and he has not done C.J. any favors. He's basically kept trying to run the same offense with a banged up OL and missing his top WR's. What he needs to do is take a page out of the Chiefs playbook and become more run oriented and move to to short passing game. He has the RB's and he still has Dell, so if the opportunity presents itself, off of having a strong running game, he can take his deep shots. He'd also rest his defense, rather than getting into so many three and out situations. Not to mention he'd save his quarterback from taking hits by getting rid of the ball quicker. Just some of the stuff that we take for granted over here. We know our coaching staff is going to put us in the best position to win games. It may look boring, not as high flying as it used to look, but it's very effective.
