Considering how long RR has been in the NFL its amazing how inept he is with the media.
You're right, I am not even sure anybody complained as such, he said concerned, which may have meant they were concerned that at the present pace they would be too fatigued before week 1. But why they are approaching the head coach and not the coordinator is the question, some must think they are more important which is the worrying thing. But once again Ron made something into a big deal that didn't need to be

Just say some players complained, I told them tough shit.

Next question.

He should take notes from Bill Belichick.

The 2 responses below your initial one summed it up pretty well. Drafted OL that won't see the field and sub par FA signings. We don't bolster many starter quality OL on this team..... at all until they prove otherwise. IMO we are fucked on the OL and I hope they figure it out quick.

Know what's going to be fucking great?

Good coaches will want to come here now. This will be a destination job next season. We should have our pick of the litter next season if a change is needed.

Re: 2023 Commies training camp thread

Kind of strange to think someone could get all the way to the pros without being coached hard somewhere along the way. And from all accounts EB may coach hard, but he also will praise his players when it's deserved. And it's never anything personal.

Re: 2023 Commies training camp thread

Ben and Keim saying improvement in the Oline has been growing slowly over camp. Think it was Standig who said Cosmi has been decent and good at times.

While Im high on CY this season, I swear if a top LT becomes available who wants a new deal and trade would be an option. I’d swipe CY for him…

Not a huge news, but the contrary would have been quite worrying IMHO. So a good news of some sort I guess.

I hope so, but I’ve heard Sweat has been a baller in camp…dream scenario: pay sweat, trade CY and Leno for a young balling LT and sign to a long term deal.

Again I’m dreaming, I just think the team needs some balance

I agree there should be balance. I love the idea of having a dominant D-line of course, but it does seem to be at the expense of building stronger position groups elsewhere.

And yes, you're dreaming. No one trades away a young balling LT. You may get one in free agency like O Brown Jr this year though - but you have to be willing to pay up. My guess is financially and with the ownership change, we weren't even in the market for him.
