The Shanaplan Gets Accelerated

If we're focusing more on the offense (in this thread) I would say the most important dynamic right now is whether this group is developing an identity. Some argue Kyle's scheme will work when we get the right pieces, whenever it happens. I think waiting around to draft the right fit QB and WRs is absurd. Fit the scheme to the roster or get the eff out.

There is no need to "hope" John Beck is our franchise QB. If he fails, then Shanahan will leave him as the stopgap or backup until he finds his next Jay Cutler.

It's not Kyle's scheme that's necessarily a misfit, it's more the play selection syntax.

I need an explanation here...

It is Kyle's scheme and Kyle's offensive game planning and Kyle's play calling. Are you saying that Kyle devises a great game plan/scheme and then screws up his great scheme with mediocre play calling?

If that is the case then he is a lot worse than merely an incompetent boob who got his job only because his Daddy is the boss...

The scheme are the plays they have in their arsenal. Kyle's scheme is bad if plays are poorly designed regardless of the result. I doubt that is the case since every QB in his system has never had trouble going on pace for 4000 yards.

But Kyle seems to be uncomfortable in conforming to what Daddy wishes. He prefers passing over running, and when he tries to commit to the run, it's always a stretch variant and the syntax is often run-run-pass punt.
