Matt Nagy?!

Ha Grizz! I have no answer for that question. I can tell you that at least one of the top four QBs (Williams, Maye, McCarthy, Penix etc) is going to be at least pretty good in the NFL. I don't know which one(s) it's going to be. Poles has a whole staff of scouts and such to give their opinions. And the pros often get it wrong too. I think you do all the research you can, and then rank them. If you have more than one tied or close to tied at the top, you trade down but only far enough to get to the last guy in your first group. If you have one as a cant miss, you can do what it takes - but that guy has to be grading out way over the others. Because at the end of this, you're taking a chance with a guy to develop. Their outcome isnt set in stone, a lot of it has to do with how you teach them, and who you put around them. And no one has a crystal ball. Im sure by draft time Ill have more opinions about this, but right now I havent seen enough to put a marker on any guy. What I can say is once I've seen a guy not be able to do it over a large enough sample size, then I know that pushing the "next" button is really the only choice you can make. You know about the guy youre moving on from - you have first hand in the building several years of working with someone, so as a GM you have your opinion, but you cant know much about the "next" guys. Those are lottery tickets, and sometimes they are even worse than what you had. But you have to keep "next"-ing until you find one that blossoms in your system.

It is possible that Poles has already determined that Flus is gone, but just doesn't see any benefit of bringing someone else in as a caretaker since there is no DC and the OC is worse than the HC. So while it is bad enough to have reached the decision point to fire him, it might make sense to wait for the end of the season to do it?

Im just saying, today, it wasnt so much Justin's fault. It was the coaching. He did a few of the things Ive been waiting to see, so I have to be fair and give him his due. But yeah, I dont want him going forward. I hope we can get some kind of trade value for him.

Fields definitely increased his trade value today.

Where is Yoko Ono when you need her?

its like you bought really high end groceries and Eberflus turned it into slop. He couldnt take those assets and put them together into a win. He will never be good.

we'd better have a 100% chance of a new coaching staff next year.

yup. Carolina lost, Giants winning. too bad arizona lost.

exactly. this isnt just a few bad decisions, this is sustained malpractice.

Fields fumbles.

not saying to do it today, but as long as he doesnt come back next year.

so can we fire Flus like you promised?

agree to disagree. been watching football a long time, seen cover 2 beaten in that exact spot hundreds of times.

I agree 100%

well, maybe if the safety is super fast, but that deep corner is the void in the cover 2 - its where you traditionally attack it, along with the deep middle seam. Weve all seen the cover 2 beaten in that corner many many times with all kinds of teams. It is the weakness of the cover 2.

3 and out. 2 herberts up the middle and a long prayer to scott. coaching? Where are the simple 8 yard combo routes? like regular high percentage football?

sooooo conservative now on both sides of the ball. grrr

they were playing cover 2 correctly. deep corner and deep middle seam are cover 2 beating routes.

TD in the deep corner void of the cover 2 - thanks Flus!

4 min vs cover 2

lol yeah its a stinger, thats what i thought too by how he was kicking

nice play by Sweat - he sure does eat up ground quick.

yeah saw that! Lets go!
