Benne posted:A 42-14 coach is not on the hot seat, what are we doing here Agreed. LaFleur has an historic first three years record for a head coach. Whether that’s a fluke due to Rodgers is yet to be seen. But if GB fired LaFleur at the end of this season, he’d be instantly snatched up by someone else. Heck, some teams that weren’t going to fire their HC might for a chance at him.

Woozie66 posted:Shannys favorite QB he's ever coached is famously Kirk Cousins. I totally buy that he loved Mac, even if he changed his mind and went Lance. Look, you can say a lot about him but Kirk isn't jimmy g. kirk's downfall is he wants to do the play as executed exactly, and he won't make a play on his own, even though he's probably capable of it. jimmy's problem is the converse: he want to make a play on his own even though he's probably not capable of it even if the play as diagrammed is available.

Bad coaches don't go 39-10 with two NFCCG appearances in their first three seasons. And if you want to be lazy and claim that was all Aaron, I should remind you that the Packers went 7-9 and 6-9-1 in McCarthy's last two seasons there, and people thought Aaron was on the decline at the time. Surely LaFleur deserves some credit for getting two more MVP years out of his surly rear end?

Gonna agree mostly with benne. No way should green bay fire him, but I would be interested to see how he performs with rodgers being crap. If he can't adjust the offense to be more about the run game, then lol I'd not put much stock in him when Aaron hangs it up.

Aaron hitting the wall will give LaFleur some time to right the ship with Love at QB (possibly next year, maybe late this year?). Even if they have a losing season with Love at QB LaFleur is safe if the team (and Love) improves over the year.

Leperflesh posted:Shanahan undoubtedly has input into drafting and trading decisions but he is not in fact the general manager of the san francisco 49ers, and it is also extremely premature to judge him or actual general manager John Lynch for the Trey Lance draft pick. We all know what Jimmy G is right now and he is adequate when the rest of the team around him is healthy - he's not super mobile nor is he super accurate but he is capable and can operate the complex offense. Shanahan's play calling and offensive schemes are so good that they're being copied all over the league, and the team's defense (again when healthy) has been dominant. Until this season with the apparent collapse of the rams and (surprisingly only mediocre) weakness in Seattle, the NFC West has been regarded as a very tough division to play in, and that factors as well. Generally 9ers fans and local media are not exactly calling for shanahan's head. Even with injuries the 49ers are looking to put together at least a middling season with a decent shot at a playoff spot and if they miss the playoffs people are going to attribute it to injuries, not coaching. Health is a skill and so far trey Lance has missed 2 years due to injury. We absolutely can judge them for the pick because ultimately if he can't stay healthy he's not a viable quarterback. I mean he didn't play in 2020 due to COVId. Trey lance hasn't played a full season of football since 2019 like idk man I'm judging

I'm not sure I agree with you here, I think it might actually be easier to succeed without Rodgers than it is with a Rodgers who's just flatout cooked. Just because of the headaches and power struggles he brings to the equation. edit: I'm not saying that's he's definitely finished, but if he is, that could be worse than life after him.

I believe LaFleur always calls 2 plays: a run and a pass play, and allows Rodgers to choose once he sees the defence. Rodgers probably tilts too much to pass, particularly when trailing. And LaFleur can't publicly correct him. The running game is also severely hampered by the rookie WRs, because the blocking of the WRs is what opens up the huge lanes once the second level is reached. The rookies don't block so well. That is why an injured Lazard plagues the Packers so much. He is an excellent blocker. This year, however, I see no halftime adjustments. Also, if Rodgers has a thumb injury and can only play from the shotgun, come up with some else.

Aren't a bunch of key Lions defensive players still on IR or only just coming back? Not that their defense was any better today, but I recall it being mentioned as part of the reason they started the season so badly on defense.

the defense is totally lacking in talent in the back 7, they have the hardest schedule in the nfl, and most importantly who the gently caress is going to take the job? genuinely, who would take this lions job if you only get two years while being chained to QB goof and having zero talent to work with. i think even if they want to mix it up they need to give him 1 more year just to at least be able to offer a young team thats ready for a new qb (and can finally afford to get rid of Goff)

Lions get the top pick and pick the right QB. They're coming into a good spot for rookie. Then spend Rams pick and others on defense and spend money on that side of the ball.

Yeah, all the same voices who only watch Detroit through other teams' highlight clips and couldn't name more than three players on the roster. My first NFL game my dad took me to he told me to "root for Joey." Since then I've seen a lot of bad football, bad coaches, and half-assed rebuilds. Compared to all of those, I still like Campbell, I still like Holmes, and if they get a single game less than Patricia did I'm going to be apoplectic. Their predecessors left behind an absolute shell of a team, and better days are ahead. It's just gonna take a long-rear end time to get there, which is what everyone knew when this rebuild started.

Y'all also had an ownership change in that Patricia window, or a formal one with Sheila Ford taking over, and while the Fords have been loving dreadful owners on the whole Sheila at least seems to give a poo poo? Enough of a poo poo to throw out the old regime after only two years of Patriot Way rear end in a top hat Flavor, anyway. So there's a LOT of new parts on the Lions at basically every level.
