oh idk just sharing things i see
Same thing I’ve noticed all year - strength and footwork are issues. All of those were just straight bull rushes.

yeah he 22 years old so he has some work to do. hard to believe we made it that far with a rookie left tackle and Right guard.
Every time the offense struggles, people blame the O.C. And in the vast majority of the times, the O.C. was not a problem.
Such is the case here.

The more I think of it, the entire game was pretty much entirely Josh McDaniels' fault.
Defense? Great.
Maye? Great in the 4th quarter once they let him do his thing down the field. A couple of turnovers, but that wouldn't have hurt us if Maye was allowed to make plays early in the game. We would have put up a lot more than 13 points.
McDaniels needed to do more to help Campbell, and he was way too conservative for most of the game. Didn't allow Maye to get into any kind of rhythm.
Big L for McDaniels.

The most obvious things:
- Playing too straight up a lot, which led to problems with the bullrushing, as a lot of "strength" comes from being low man in the clinch. That will often happen with people on a gimpy leg
- Very definitely having a weight transference issue with his legs, which led to problems when defending rushes who were coming from space and distance
Bonus for the "T-Rex" people:
Campbell was getting beat on mostly plays that had nothing to do with arm length. And, on at least one play where arm length would be something to think about (swim move), he was clearly beaten because he was off balance due to the way he'd moved his legs, with the swim move just finishing him off.
Can’t believe Darnold said this.
im a Darnold fan now
Gonzo might be better in pure coverage, but they use Witherspoon all over the field and as an elite blitzer, like Rod Woodson and them in their day
he was making huge impactful plays all game
Gonzo had some great coverage, but unfortunately didn't come up with any big time plays when he had a couple opportunities
im sure this game is going to linger in some of their minds for awhile, thinking about what could have been
Maye was "doing his thing" in the 4th quarter because they were playing a soft shell defense and letting him take whatever he wanted underneath, knowing he didnt have enough time to come back and win it taking 5-10 yards at a time
was a huge L for mcdaniels as well no doubt.. some pretty fucking bizarre playcalling, as well as not adjusting to what the defense was doing or giving Campbell any assistance with chips, etc
Dozens of plays they probably wish they had back.. and unfortunately to win superbowls, you can have very few, if any, plays you wish you could take back in order to win a title
this team is snake bitten by gingers in the superbowl

Gingers are way overrepresented in the NFL.
