Quote:The pitchfork and torch crowd will label the above as excuse making. In reality, when you're trotting out as many rookies or 2nd year players as this team is, and you're putting these rookies in critical positions where experience really does matter, you're going to see exactly what you've pointed out above. Your points are spot on.

It doesn't negate the fact that there have been issues with play calling, but the failure of this team to get over the hump has much to do with this roster being even younger than it was last year at key positions. We're looking at a rookie QB who has started what? 8 games?

People wanted to get the rookie in there as quickly as possible, and even said that they would be fine with him struggling. That the experience is what was most important. Yet, suddenly they seem to be singing a different tune, either declaring Bortles a bust, or saying he should be benched.

Most here recognized that when you're starting 6 or 7 guys on offense, there were going to be growing pains. Especially when the bulk of your receiving corps was comprised of rookies. That is one a position where experience counts, and in most instances, rookies hit a wall in their development. We've gotten surprisingly good production from this group, but in the instance you referenced, Lee's lack of experience was exposed, and it cost us. Those types of things will get better with time.

Considering they've been getting plenty of time against the same scheme for the last month you'd think the coaches could explain to the players what needs to be done to beat it.

So is it players not having the physical ability to win against a now familiar scheme, or is it that the coaching is too inept to correct the players given a month seeing the other team play the same scheme?
