Pontius Pilate posted:Think this happened to some coach in the 80s, but I’m completely blanking on who and what team. It was mentioned in articles about how Reich was the fastest HC firing besides this guy who was fired after two preseason games iirc (I prolly don’t) George Allen with the Rams in 1978. He lasted all of those two preseason games and got sacked.

And the only other first year head coach fired faster than Reich was Pete McCulley for the 1978 49ers, who only lasted 9 games.

For the record, I don't think Herbert's injury changes the Staley situation. We'll just point to last year's Cardinals where Kingsbury's fate was sealed long before Kyler got hurt. New update coming this week!

Can we talk about how insane a coaching job Payton and Daboll have been doing? garbage rosters for both and insanely bad injury luck for Daboll and they're both putting together some solid win streaks here at the end of the season. I know Daboll's not perfect but I'd absolutely take that dude as Bucs HC. His ability to make any QB look semi-competent is truly staggering.

I don't think the Broncos have lined up a tight end under center in a short yardage situation this year, so that automatically makes Payton a coach of the year candidate.

I thought it was silly Daboll was ever mentioned as being in danger, but his seat immediately went back to room temperature when the Giants won one game with Tommy DeVito, let alone three. Daniel Jones is the only person on the Giants in the hot seat right now (what an all-time terrible contract that was).

If Jeudy could catch the ball reliably the offense would look a lot better. He's good at getting open, but I have a feeling we'll be drafting another WR next year.

It's either "he needs more weapons" "he needs a better coach" or "he needs a defense" and it never ends. I'm in recovery and can assure you that he'll never actually win poo poo. I wish he would, he's a good human being to my knowledge but he just doesn't have whatever the gently caress intangibles he needs to be anything other than an aggressively mediocre QB.

Being fair, you're going to see those excuses for every player. Just a matter of them being good enough to make up for deficits in the roster. The guys who get the league average label don't have that much ability to make up for roster flaws.

saints are locked on carr for another year, so may as well bring in a better coach and see if that helps. But if the saints have the chance to grab one of the top QBs like daniels then jump on it and let Carr take the lumps while the rook learns.

People talking themselves into Carr as an impact signing this offseason was really really confusing to me. You can go lolMcDaniels all you want but he had very good weapons in Vegas and put up a below-average season last year; not sure why anyone expected anything better in New Orleans

He was never amazing but he looked particularly lovely under McDaniels in a way he hadn’t for years.

I definitely don't believe it with the Raiders coming off a baseball score 3-0 loss

Dude made Adams in his prime just a guy and caused him to complain. NO doesn't have slouches at skill positions. Pretty reasonable to expect some kind of bounce back.

I'm of the mind of giving Carr a mulligan under Josh McDaniels because, well, it's Josh McDaniels. That said, he's still much worse than in the past despite having decent options at offense. Maybe he's just old, maybe Josh broke him mentally, whatever it is, this isn't the Carr of previous seasons.

There was also the stat floated around at the time that the raiders had basically garbage defenses for carr’s entire time on the raiders and the saints were expected to have at least a functional defense still lollin at the raiders fan I met in the wild this past offseason who was super hyped for jimmy g replacing carr because jimmy just wins

Carr has also spent much of the season dealing with various injuries. I think Carr is average at best, this isn’t some kind of apology for him. But it can’t be helping matters.

Garappolo looked like complete poo poo this year. One year of Mac Jones looking middling is the only thing McDaniels has to his name and I think it’s fair to call that a fluke at this point.

One broken leg killing an arguable MVP season and it was pretty much over. Not really, he was still pretty good, but I do think his game changed after that. David had to go through a lot more before it was obviously over, like jabs vs a knockout. Cursed QB family.
