People remember for 9 weeks we ran an average route depth of 9 yards right. Then Doug gets called out on it and we start running deeper routes and Lawrence goes 12 tds to 1 int, Lawrence gets an ankle injury and he goes back to bland play calling. We've had issues with getting playcalls in all year. We are 31st in wr screens top half in rb screens but we run WR screens all the time. Doug admitted the WR ran the wrong routes on the ints and that it was due to the WRs not getting the signals which begs the question why were those plays even allowed to be changed seeing as how the QB missed all week.

I'm tired of the players not plays BS that has deluded this team and fans into thinking it's always only on the players. Look at the Chiefs the WRs suck but so does the play calling without Eric Bieniemy. The Chiefs look like the Bears did under Naggy but with the benefit of having Mahomes.

You shouldn't have to explain this when its been mentioned a number of times.  Hes not smart enought to understand this.

I understand that people like you are incapable of assessing root cause and therefore lay blame in the wrong place. The coaching is good enough, the players in one particular group are bad. Doug Pederson is already the second best coach we've ever had and likely will be the best by the time he's done yet people are legit saying they can't have him deciding how this team is run. It's laughable. Maybe he does move on from his assistants this offseason and maybe not, but either way if the lines don't improve it won't change much on the field.
