  1. If this is all about working out the kinks, why are they even showing up to these games then and risking career ending injuries?
  2. Maybe 49ers are just stirring crap up. Either way, John Lynch would be on my crap list now.
  3. Perfect, going back to 11 offense. The plan is all falling into place.
  4. The sentence I read was more like “Josh prefers shotgun”. Didn’t specifically include any action of Josh telling this poster that, although for some reason the poster has the understanding or belief. The person generally makes a strong defense for Dorsey, although their replies and comments don’t read to me like it could actually be Dorsey.
  5. It might be a blessing this game is on a short week, so we don’t have to stew over yesterday’s loss for an extra three days. As long as we don’t lose again, of course…
  6. That would take us making it to the Super Bowl first lol
  7. If your point is that the something that has changed is that he’s learning to better manage his emotions on the sideline, I can buy that. If you think that he just doesn’t care about winning because he isn’t rah rah on the sidelines 100% of the time, I think that’s a crock. Were you saying that when he smashed the ball across the goal line yesterday to take the lead with 2 mins left in the game?
  8. Lol - You must have a slept through a few other games earlier this season when Josh was being touted as favorite for league MVP.
  9. Something COULD be going on with him, but let’s not forget he led the team to two TDs in the last 7 minutes of the game, to get us the lead. It’s not like he was in some mesmerized trance the whole game.
  10. He never said he doesn’t know what he’s doing, or what specific misfires are happening. He just noted they aren’t getting into a rhythm. Lots of room to interpret his comments, although I’m pretty sure he could tell you a lot about WHAT is going wrong, but he’s more perplexed on the WHY and how to fix it. As he should be trying to figure out.
  11. Can you imagine having Caleb Williams and Marvin Harrison Jr, surrounded by the rest of this talented roster and coaching staff, on rookie contracts?
  12. Do you really think he’s going to call out Dorsey and/or the players in a press conference? THAT will be the fastest way for him to lose the locker room, not covering for people. McD is a process guy, so whatever problems they’re having, his foundational belief is that they need to work that much harder this week to fix the issues, versus something he says in a press conference actually fixing the issues. For instance, the OL has looked horrible recently, so yea he could point that out in a press conference, but it’s going to potentially alienate guys on the team, look to some like he’s deflecting the blame, etc. The best way to calm the critics will be to start winning again.
  13. Wins like this should keep him around into next season, so that he can break the losing record first.
  14. If we can’t go 6-4 or better the rest of the way, we don’t deserve to be in the playoffs. No way we’d then win four in a row anyway.
  15. Got a laugh out of them trying to broadcast in that rain & wind as well lol Right, I’m hoping last two weeks were their letdown performances 👍
  16. Fat Harry’s is where I went to when there last January. Decent wings and had the Bills on a big screen in the back room.
  17. What are the differences in strategy and tactics? I’d assume passing is a much bigger part, including ability of receivers to separate and their catching ability. You probably want to get as many air yards as possible, to limit the amount of time someone could “tackle” you/grab your flag. Is what the Dolphins are trying to run very similar?
  18. I played a lot of pickup basketball during my college years and after, and would often play against guys that seemed as athletically gifted as D1 players, but had only ever made it to the D3 ranks in college. After talking and interacting with these guys, my main conclusion of why they never would have made it at the D1 level or further was the basketball IQ component. And then there’s always players with the high IQ for their sport, but just reach a limit athletically (Fitzpatrick). That’s why people love to watch guys like LeBron or Josh, b/c any given moment you might witness something that the rest of us could only dream of ever doing.
