[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1076423, member: 17953"] I've always believed that a HC is the product of the knowledge and skills of those he surrounds himself with as assistants. Micro-managing a team does not work. It leads to disillusionment on the part of the assistants and stifles creativity. On Tucker Kraft? I'm going to gloat. I remember telling everyone how he was going to be better than Musgrave. He is. Everyone should see it now. If they don't, they aren't seeing what's playing out on the field. The kid is a blue-collar player who loves the game and plays with the intensity that it takes to be the best of the lot. Last night was an example as to why they better lock this kid up in a long-term contract "now" because he's going to be the most sought after TE in decades through free agency if they don't. He's a UFA after 2026. The Packer game plan was one that could have been straight out of the Rodgers playbook. Use the shorter routes to move the ball downfield and create gaps in the long game to take shots. It created openings for Watson which was great seeing. Doubs was constantly double teamed which meant there had to be single coverage on Watson and Kraft and it paid off. Even though Golden didn't do much out there his time on the field was valuable because he was drawing defenders out of the areas where Kraft ended up making his catches. Speed isn't good only for making catches, it's a great decoy as well and it showed it. Both Fitzpatrick and Musgrave showed their skills as blockers last night in the 12 packages. They were laying leather on some solid defenders like Watt. The Steelers didn't get one sack last night and only 5 QB hits which showed that the blocking schemes were working. Don't let the lower rushing and receiving figures for Jacobs last night concern you. Josh was playing injured from the start and was hit pretty hard and often in the early going and it took its toll. What everyone should be excited about is how Wilson showed how good he can be in a secondary role when called upon. In my opinion, he has a real shot at being the second horse in the backfield race. He's smart in reading his blocks and running off of them. I need time to evaluate the defense. There are a few things I need to review in depth. [/QUOTE]
