I don’t have anything solid, but I think there is a lot that will come out about Tucker and some of the agreements that were made after is safely in the NFL and Dino is on his way. There’s a reason he kept playing hurt and no other RBs were getting run.

I think Schmidt is chafing in this offense with his blocking scheme. Honestly, I am wondering if Anae is trying to force an offense onto a team that simply does not have the personnel to execute. I think Johnson, McCloud, and Schmidt might all be chafing against Anae and Beck. Anae is known for being very difficult to work with.

The other thing to consider is that Dino is an offensive minded coach and this scheme is very far from his veer and shoot hurry up. Anae was practically forced on the team by ADJW, is it surprising there are problems?

Again, I’m not in the know and just reading between the lines. Injuries on offense have mostly been limited to Tucker and Schrader which hurts, but does not result in what we have been seeing on the field over the past 5.5 games. The OL returned all but Servais and dropped off a cliff. The WR room went from bad to non-exsistent. Tucker has been pedestrian outside a few moments even when healthy (he has been healthy at least the last three games).

I think there is an internal struggle for leadership of that offense and Dino is airing it a little. This is already bad and it feels like it’s just going to get worse.
