I didn't know it was a thing but one of Howell's best abilities is to somehow not look like flaming garbage when everything around him is flaming garbage. I don't know what to call that ability... but he has it. I had no interest in retaining any of the coaches next yr from this staff b4 this game, I am even less inclined to now. All new everything.

Washington vs. Cowboys Week 12 Prediction Thread

Agree. Don't want to judge a guy on his worst game. Leno has not been amazing, but he has been our 2nd best lineman behind Cosmi all year. Of course you wanna upgrade but I got 3 other holes on the oline dragging the team down more than him. Charles, Whyile and Gates have been aggregate dogwater. I don't think Larsen has played well either.

Chargers have several legitimate star pieces to build around, plus an unquestioned franchise QB. We have none of that. I'd be hard pressed to think our situation is more attractive than theirs for a HC. MAYBE you can make the argument for more attractive to a GM b/c you have a much easier opportunity to shape the roster here, but that is a bit of a stretch too. And since we have a new owner and are coming outta the situation we are currently in, you gotta account for the wildcard of massive organizational turnover, football side and beyond. This whole franchise from top to bottom is probably about to spin more than Sonic the Hedgehog, and that may require a little extra navigation. I still think this will be a desirable destination all things considered tho. Just not the most desirable. We got more in our favor than against. Its not like this is a terrible place to come in... outside of the stadium if you like warm showers.

I think to be a successful OC in the NFL you have to be able to attack weaknesses. Yes, you can have your focus and your niche, but you also need some degree of flexibility. You have to be able to exploit a D that is bad against the run, or bad against the pass. You have to be able to pivot to react to injuries on both our side and theirs. You have to be able to adjust in real time if something is working extraordinarily well, or not at all. Not 8 weeks later. The best offenses certainly have an identity but they can also break away from it and hurt you in other ways or take advantage of openings in real time. We straight up could not do this last year, as the hide-the-QB O was the only feasible offense we could operate in and that does not leave much wiggle room for flexibility. Even when facing the best Run D in the NFL, all we could do was continue to try and run as much as possible. We pretty much choose to be ultra-rigid this year by offensive design. I don't believe either is very conductive to high level success.

Game Day Thread 2023: SUPER BOWL LVIII (58) ~ Chiefs vs. 49ers
FootballZombie replied to zCommander's topic in Around the NFL
Mahomes aint a burner in any sense but some guys running style just look deceptively slow compared to what they are. Some guys are long striders, others are choppy and it all views differently. Jacoby Brisset had the exact same visual tick in preseason. He looks slow as molasses, but he was unusually effective at getting angles. -

I'm heavily slanted towards wanting an all new coaching staff. We don't really do anything particularly well, so there is not much that I desire to protect/keep when offered to opportunity to improve. All that is left is continuity for continuity's sake but when what you have is not good... whats the point of that. Even more-so if top brass thinks they have a good shot at luring in desirable talents via their behind the scenes feelers. -
I'm like the target demographic for a black uni but those things are straight up atrocities. They are booty-cheeks, and the helmet is worse w/ that unbelievably stupid front W.

You guys are really gassing Marvin Harrison JR up in in here. He may never have to stop for fuel again. What is he, Megatron 2.0 or something? At this point I'd be disappointment if he didn't have to duck coming outta the tunnel so he doesn't hit his head on the sky.
