you know ship he's got to know exactly what's going on so i don't love that aspect and then like to your point you know and you heard me say the play action passes the long developing passes when you don't protect in the middle of your offensive line that makes no sense but like people have gotten on cj stroud and this is where i think you're totally right to go like i watch film of cj stroud i don't go oh man i mean he's missing throws and plays everywhere
I look at it and go, shit, he's just surviving. Oh, crap, he got out of the way there. Oh, I mean, the guy was barely open or covered really well. Oh, he put it in a spot maybe where his guy could get it or nobody. Things haven't worked well institutionally there. I'm still a big believer in C.J. Stroud, no doubt about it.
And then, of course, they have the injuries of wide receiver, and none of that's been helpful as far as he's concerned this year.
But the lad throw, like, it's a six-yard hitch route. You can't throw the ball, like, three feet over his head there.
Like, lad's got, like, a 40-inch vertical. It's not like he's some unathletic, like, you know, idiot either.
It's not Quentin Johnson or some huge guy. Right. You want to put it right here and let him run and do that. And the first interception, like you said, right off the heels of a turnover. Right. To make that decision and try to fit that ball on the other side. That was bad. He played bad football and he was off his game. Certainly played his worst game of the year.
No. No, they did not.
I hear you. I hear you. No, I think Bo Nix is a different animal than Russell Wilson. I really like Bo Nix coming out. Now, listen, you made the comments earlier, right? And this is actually he popped in my head when you said this.
Exactly. Play calling tells you something, right? And there's something true to that. Certainly, I get that. But at Oregon, that's what they do a little bit. You see it even again this year. They like to throw screens and kind of control the game and use that as a part of their, almost their extension of their run game. I saw enough plays on film from Bo Nix last year in college.
You go, man, he could throw the ball down the field. I think he's got a better overall... feel in the pocket than Russell Wilson and is going to be able to play better from the pocket than Russell Wilson. Russell Wilson for years wouldn't throw the ball down the middle of the field and basically just drop back and wait to move and make something happen and make a backyard type throw, right?
There was very little or few and far between throws on rhythm. I think Bo Nix, you're going to see a guy that's got Drew Brees' surgicality in him, and then he's got, I think, even a more explosive arm than Drew Brees did in his prime, let alone, like you saw yesterday, he can run the damn ball pretty good too. So I'm a little higher on Bo Nix than you are.
I really like his talent, and I think he's the perfect guy for Sean Payton because Sean Payton's going to be able to put limitless offense on his shoulders, and he'll be able to run the offense still.
No, it was real quick. It's tough, too, because they don't run the ball real well. Right. They got Cortland Sutton, who's their one go to guy down there. But that's about it. So they'll get some receivers this offseason. Watch out for them in that standpoint. They won the year. I mean, the lowest salary cap number ever to go to the playoffs, rookie quarterback, you said it.
So I think there's a lot of positives there. And now they can go out in free agency and add to that roster and see where it goes from there.
Exactly, right.
I don't know if it was me you're thinking of, right? I'm trying... I think maybe where we got into a few weeks ago was the Chicago game. I'm trying to think of where I've said, hey, one of the things, and I thought... Detroit winning home field advantage was bigger for them than maybe most teams in the playoffs because of the way their defense is. It's so banged up.
They can get a little advantage with their crowd noise and all that to help out the defense. The other thing I questioned, and I think it was the Bear game, was just that, hey, Jared Goff outside in the elements has been an issue through his career. And he squashed that that day. But like, hey, with him specifically, you know where he's going to be. He's going to be in the pocket.
He doesn't get outside the pocket. He hangs in there. He's tough as hell. And the biggest thing with them, it's hard to catch on to anything they do because they The fucking OC, Ben Johnson, is the man. I think he's the best OC slash about-to-be head coach candidate since Shanahan and McVay. That's how awesome I think he is.
And he just gives you so much offense to where, like, if you overplay one area of their offense... you're going to get screwed somewhere else. He's going to crack the code on you somewhere else and start to destroy you. And that's what makes Detroit so dangerous is there's really not an aspect of their offense.
They can't do something at a high level, and that's why they're dangerous as hell, as you know.
