Also WTF is Dallas doing?

Weird clock management from GB here Green Bay wimps out again... Lefleur is a loser

Man, Packers schedule is brutal

Nobody can question Whites work ethic. Dude runs a goalie academy in addition to being a top 10 CB

Mahomes based on the edge he gets due to being a star.

Jeff Saturday wins his debut! Also, good for Matt Ryan. Benching him was BS

If coaching doesn't matter why are KC WR or RB or TE schemed wide open every play? Mahomes seems to have a wide open option every play.

It's just a game but the purpose of this board is to talk about it.

I don't think Allen is uncoachable because Daboll was able to get him to play within the system. The thing is, Allen's turnovers today for the most part weren't even forced. Just terrible decisions.

True, but imo winning early (Brady) takes so much pressure off later. With Manning it was "yeah but..." And the pressure piles up and piles up each season. Once you've got a ring you're always a winner

Cool. How did today go? The great coaches don't take that BS. There's a way to have that conversation in a tough love way.

Belichick would tell "the QB" to get his ass off the field. That's why Brady is a Buc now. But it worked. Coaches need to make decisions and be the boss sometimes.

We have a more athletic Favre. However, Favre was at his best with a taskmaster (Holmgren) who helped him keep his propensity for bad choices in check

A good coach has the "so what are you going to do differently?" Conversation

Either the Cook pick was a mistake Or Singletary is THAT good (I love the guy btw) Or coaches are not using talent as well as they could

Bills need to focus on taking free yards, making smart decisions, and avoiding giving the other team freebies. Daboll could simply point to the scoreboard. You're arguing with a guy who needs 2 hands to fit all his championship rings. Maybe these games give these coaches some evidence for why it's time to get smarter, since this approach isn't working. Problem is that Dorsey seems like the double or nothing, chips to the center of the table type. That plays well with a room full of alpha types but there is a reason NE usually won and Brady does and will now . Put simply, they'll wait for you to beat yourself. Eventually you'll fumble, throw the pick, commit a foul, or make a dumb call. And then they crush you for it. Smart > dumb

Allen keeps saying it's all on him and therefore he is more prone to force things to try to fix it. Coaches need to be there for their players to be a steady hand

People downplay the importance of being there before. Daboll has seen it all. 5 Super Bowl rings and 1 college national championship ring. Worked under the greatest NFL coach and greatest college coach. In short, he's been there before and imo provided some much needed calm to a guy who runs a bit hot

Dorsey is like having Allen's emotional clone at OC. There isn't a crazy play or a gamble they don't love. When it works, great, but when it doesn't it looks like this

I know he'll retire top 3 all time in head coach wins behind Belichick and Schula

I think Dorsey and Allen are wired very similarly and would each run through a wall to pick up a 1st down up 20-0 in week one because they are ultra competitive. Daboll has a handful of super bowl and national championship rings and knows the long game. He was a calming influence on Allen

Brady's season was over last week when the Rams stopped them on 4th and goal with under a minute left and the score 13-9. They lose and go to 3-6 and it's a mountain to climb. They were done But then they were given one more chance. When you are coming to terms with being done but then you are suddenly given one more shot, funny things happen. The emotional swing is incredible for both sides Brady himself has talked about that concept many times . Falcons and Matt Ryan never recovered. The mental part of this game is huge, and that's the coaches job to help their players, not accentuate or encourage their bad tendencies

Daboll was huge in keeping Allen level headed. He's doing the same in NJ with Jones now. Dorsey seems every bit the smash your head into that wall until the wall breaks type, which is not a great fit with Allen, who needs a calming effect

I haven't wanted to say it but Sean Payton will be out there... McDermott still deserves support but he also shouldn't feel untouchable. He's won nothing yet. For a guy who prides himself on attention to detail this team plays dumb. This is the NFL. Making the playoffs with a top 2-3 QB and getting nowhere is not a plus. The rest of this season is out up or shut up time.

Jamming all 22 guts in one spot and trying to run into that is not a good idea. At least spread the D out a bit
