To me, this all revolves around the fact that, besides Ridley and Harrison beging added, our starting lineup is almost exactly like last year.  So what changed?  The execution.  To me, a coaching staff has a lot to do with how well a team executes things.

Last year we executed way better than we did so far this year.  What's changed?  Ridley and Harrison?  That's why the entire offense has collapsed?  Obviously not.  But, if you were to tell me that Pederson handed over the majority of the offensive decision making to Press Taylor, then it becomes obvious why we've started so sloppy.

You don't KNOW the second sentence, you're making an assumption.. Why can't you just accept that the players aren't playing well? Taylor isn't coaching defense or Teams and they played like crap yesterday. Why are you so obsessed with this guy? It seems weirdly personal to you.

Woah, so you think that Press Taylor was running the offense last year?  LOL.  OK.  Well, I think you're wrong.  The entire Jagaurs fanbase I guess was assuming Pederson was running the offense last year:  https://www.bigcatcountry.com/2023/6/4/2...contenders

Why am I obsessed with why we suck so bad this year?  Is it personal to me?  Yeah, I guess you're right it is personal.  I hate having to watch a garbage product on Sundays...  It's absolutely annoying to me.  So yeah, I guess I take that personally.  In so much that I don't like wasting a Sunday watching garbage,  and from thinking about why we're so garbage, I've come to a specific conclusion based on the the facts.

Our starters on Offense have changed very little from last year.  And yet this offense looks completely different than what it looked like last year in terms of plays ran as well as execution.  The one main change is that at the start of the season, Pederson said that Press will be calling plays.  Last year the play calling and execution does not look anything like it does this year.  I've come to a conclusion, based on how little the personelle has changed, it's very likely that Press Taylor now running the offense is the reason for the offense being run so poorly.

I mean, I don't think that my conclusion is so radical.  To be honest, it seems the only logical conclusion.

Edit: Ian Rappapprt confirmed that Pederson was the play caller last year, https://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/articles/...2_37229119
Come on, don't be that guy that tries to be contrarian for the sake of it. It's obvious that Pederson was 100% in control of the offense last year. This year looks completely different.
