Marc Trestman Hired as Ravens OC

This signing by the Ravens should put the emphasis on fixing our secondary even more.

They talked about how good Trestman is supposed to be for qbs but he didn't seem to do much with Cutler. Cutler is not a great qb anyway but I hope we see Flacco putting up some Cutler-esque numbers. I agree though that they're gonna be a pass first team. Forte is one of the best backs in the game and Trestman didn't utilize him at all. So I don't think he will be big on running the ball. I bet Flacco is actually pretty glad about this.

 

His first year with cutler wasn't bad O stat wise... This year the whole damn team imploded. All in all it was probably a good hire but that doesn't matter... Us and the rats are always a toss up come game time. Hopefully his bad season carries over to our division foes, we shall see!

 

Forte set an NFL record for receptions

 

Yeah but they were still a pretty one dimensional offense. My buddy is a huge Bears fan and couldn't stand Trestman for the way he used or didn't properly use Forte.

 

ok, we must hate him now.

 

they lost kubiak and hired trestman .. let's see if this is an improvment

 

Kubiak was a better OC than Trestman, good thing he's gone.

 

forte ran the ball 266 times and caught 102 passes...... the fact that he only had 1036 yds. and a 3.9 ave. points more to the o-line then on a lack of, or improper use..
nothing an OC or rb can do in that situation..... but no one can say that forte wasn't used properly

 

I've actually talked to him about it and he said there would just be stretches where they would run it a lot and then there would be times where they would have games with only 8 attempts. I don't know if that's exactly right but I just had no reason to doubt it ya know? What's funny is about a year ago I told him that the Bear had a horrible o line and he was talking about how Cutler had became one of the least sacked qbs and I was like "but I've seen him get killed behind that line like crazy" and he said that they had fixed it. So who knows? LOL. I know I did see some games this year where Cutler was getting hit a lot and really I think he just gave up. I can't even imagine what he would feel like behind the lines Ben has been behind for years.

 

Yeah it's not like he's a Steelers fan. LOL. Most Bears fans I know are pretty knowledgeable though.
