Rhom Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Watching Chiefs at Denver yesterday in the snow, my favorite part is that there was an entire section of the stands that was populated with cardboard cutouts of villagers from South Park wearing masks.

I think they’ve been doing that for a while now. Gotta love how they’ve embraced the show’s love of them. By the way, your team is weird! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l2 0 5 5 Posted October 26, 2020 Author Share Posted October 26, 2020 Happy with yesterday even if we almost blew another big lead. That's an unsettling trend I've noticed this year. Have now allowed Texans, Eagles, Broncos and Titans to make it closer than it should have been. Gonna bite us in the ass sooner or later. At least we know Lamar can't come back when down a couple touchdowns Hope D. Johnson is alright. When healthy, we have an embarrassment of riches at WR. Onward!

6649er Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 wtf have we got Cowboys-Eagles next Sunday night, when 49ers-Seahawks are right there in the window to have been swapped?? what is the point of flexible scheduling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoodedCrow Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 That last game with Seattle was wild, as usual. Fantastic plays, and costly mistakes. I’m not going to forget the DK Metcalf tackle. I wish that I could run like that, without having to earn it by years of hard work:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iskaral Pust Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Bears were outplayed all night long but even so they had two trips into the red zone for zero points. Converting those into TDs would’ve tied the game. Undeservedly, but nonetheless. The pass protection is poor, and Foles is bad any time he’s forced out of the pocket. He missed some deep shots that would have been TDs. The receivers and tight ends are decent. The running game looks a bit stale behind that OL and without a good alternate since Cohen’s injury. Patterson doesn’t do enough as a RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The defense however was shit from game one. The HC deserves his time, but only if he is willing to see issues and make adjustments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had Rodgers for his entire prime, plus a still really good Favre and only made it to one Owl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too early to say, but MM still calls plays that require his receivers to win their individual battles rather than ones that creates space for them. A coach that doesn't adapt and learn is one I'd want nothing to do with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's kind of funny because McCarthy had a big PR fluff campaign talking about how he'd spent his time away from coaching learning and evolving with the modern game.

His defensive coach hiring though, abysmal. He should be fired if he doesn't recognize and address that. Being a strong, successful team that can get to or win multiple Owls requires a good front office, good coaching, good offense and good defense. And one of those two latter elements probably needs to be more than just good. (Or rampant, systemic and extended cheating that is swept under the rug by the commissioner's office.) Shula's Marino years featured a poor front office that couldn't put together a good defense, and although the Fins got close a couple of times, they couldn't get back to the big one. Steve Young played during the height of the NFC's dominance, when any one of five or six teams could win the Super Bowl every year. Dan Fouts played for the Chargers. Mike McCarthy, on paper, should be a terrific coach. He is from Western Pennsylvania, cradle of quarterbacks and coaches. He apprenticed under Marty Schottenheimer. He coached two HoF quarterbacks in Green Bay. But he is not a terrific coach. He fell bass-ackward into a Super Bowl win when the Steelers shot themselves in the foot. Otherwise he squandered OK-to-good drafting by the front office that developed some strong defenses and excellent offenses. His bland and unexciting offenses were rescued from mediocrity by Favre and Rodgers, and players were never thrilled to play for him. Adding a bland coach to the unerring clown show and ego brandishing competition that is the Dallas Cowboys was always destined to end in tears.
