I still think the Saints should fire Dennis Allen today for apologizing to the Falcons.

The chances of firing him were slim, slimmer after the performance yesterday. But that act alone has raised my hopes he gets canned. It pissed off the fan base like no other act since the loving no PI call in 2018.

Why do we think Tepper is hiring a coach of worth? Seems much more likely he massively overpays for a worthless coach given the body of available evidence.

The rumor (Or maybe clarification?) from Schrager is that he's just there to help with the head coach/front office search, and probably not actually be the day-to-day guy himself.

I am trying to think of someone who got the “offensive genius” tag, had as much talent on offense as Smith did, and just absolutely wasted it. Maybe the guy the Bucs had before Arians?

Not on offense but Brandon Staley was billed as a defensive genius because he hung out with Vic Fangio and had Aaron Donald on his team.

Is he a highly sought OC given Howell finished with as many picks as TDs?

Dirk Koetter was pretty good at coaching offense. The year he got fired the Bucs averaged 25ppg which was 12th in the league. The defense sucked rear end and was like 31st and that had been the biggest issue since Lovie (and constant Jameis turnovers). Then Arians came in and the 30 for 30 season happened.

Unpopular opinion but I actually agree with Arthur Smith on this one. Imagine being a DT who sees the O in kneeling formation only to suddenly find yourself on your rear end with your leg bent behind you on some Johnny Knox poo poo.

Forget the score, it was a dumb play that could’ve gotten someone(or several) seriously injured. If you’re gonna run it come out in an according formation - not the kneel.

Hope DA gets fired too lol

It doesn't seem like his stock changed any. The Commanders Offense was rear end but he was being asked to perform a miracle.

He probably ends up back in Kansas City with some new made up title.

That’s kinda on Allen too, the players asked him to try and get Jamaal Williams the TD and he refused so they had to line up correctly in victory formation or I assume the coach would’ve just called time out

I thought they were lining up for a tush push not victory formation, but at least under NCAA rules saying you are doing victory formation then running a play is an unsportsmanlike conduct

Might be that the refs were just like "it's the last play of the game" but I wonder whether there might be fines

Lol I hope not. If it is literally illegal to run plays out of victory formation, why even require the play to be run?

I don't believe in Nagy like, at all, but I feel like you have to at least give him some guys who can do poo poo like catch balls that hit them in the hands and line up properly before you fire him.

I mean maybe the refs blew the call or something, it's the NCAA (vastly outshines the NFL in this category). But other than some people whining about it I am unaware of this rule.

e: could be a specific rule I don't know about at end of games instead of end of halves, the NCAA has always been overly worried about running up the score.

Why do bash “dead-beat” coaches for not utilizing their first round picks but we never question if the pick has bad vibes? Or if they’re just unpleasant to be around?

I think it's less running up the score and more player safety. The defence needs to trust that the O isn't going to do anything when they go victory formation, otherwise they would be well within their rights to full blitz and take the QBs head off/cut the Online's knees off every time. If teams are running plays out of victory formation, then Schiano is just ahead of his time rather than a dick out to hurt guys.

Victory formation comes with the agreement that the game is for all intents and purposes over, let's just get it over with and get everyone home safe. Don't be the rear end in a top hat that mashes betray in the prisoners dilemma and ruin it for everyone.
