I agree. It took him 5 years, but McB finally realized you must build around Josh. We can more than function next year with a rotation of Oliver, DQ and Joseph. Phillips, Settle & Ford are gone. We must replace Count Dropulous with someone like Odunze.

Yeah because 82% of fans realize he is extremely limited in how deep he can take a team. Sometimes continuity is more appealing than the ultimate goal. I want a HC that can take Josh to a Lombardi. If it means we don't have a top 5 defense, so be it. Besides every fanbase complains about their coaches, except KC.

No way in any multiverse should we have lost to these 3. I can tolerate Jax & Cincy, but these 3. Serious...we should be 8-2.

You kinda have to "blast them in there" when your wrs aren't getting any separation.

Drops that result directly in a turnover and loss of points/ possession "are exactly as egregious as any fumble". And yes I'm talking about the Gabe drop/interception. And Gabes career 52% hardly screams " here and there". And to use your own words, " you don't bench players for occassional failure to execute. According to James' fumble rate, Gabe has a higher failure rate than James. McD should've benched both if he wanted to be fair. But he picks & chooses.

So giving an opinion on a subject immediately makes you a psychologist? We better shut down this board before it becomes a psychiatry convention.

Winning isn't simple

Then why didn't he bench Gabe, which literally cost us points. That wasn't Gabe's 1st drop.

McB purposely neglected the OL and a better supplemental wr (wr2) for years. And this was done in order for him to focus on his defense. They literally had every opportunity to build a monster offense around Josh from 2018 on. Josh simply had to make hero plays because he didn't have the offensive structure to go in any other direction. McD hires Dorsey (another mistake) and Ken proceeds to ask Josh to do 3 things at once. No one should be surprised by this or Josh's loss of confidence. McDermott better quickly decide whether he wants to be flexible with Brady or his time with this team will come to an end. And to finalize, none of this has anything to do with the incessant blunders that Sean commits during games. That's a whole different argument for another day. This is about leadership and letting your offensive people like Daboll do their job.

Let the confidence rebuilding begin.

Right now Josh isn't exactly having a year of progress.

I remember that episode, it freaked me out.

After Ben Johnson, Harbaugh would be my next choice. He's disciplined and his players would run through a wall for him.

I agree. They haven't mentally recovered from Damar's collapse. They're not having fun and obviously Dorsey and his playcalling factored in. London and the injuries probably ended our season. They didn't need to completely turn off the running element of Josh's game. Just tone it down a little and keep stressing sliding on scrambles. They basically just stopped it, which effected his demeanor.

This team has alot of bad contracts to get out of and his is one of them. Kincaid will quickly transition to TE1. Right now Dawson's greatest contribution is helping Spencer not get beat. I just want to return to the offense of weeks 2-4. I don't care if it's a mix of 11 or 12 personnel.

I'm all about optimism but there's 0% chance Miami is losing to the Titans or Raiders. We better find another path.

Yeah it's highly doubtful Tre, Poyer and Hyde are back. We rode 2 amazing safeties for as long as we could. And Tre just ran into a world of bad luck. Gotta get young, fast dbs.

That was a good block by Odell. Embarrassing refs

These 2 will continue to get injured.

I don't care if his name is Marsha Brady as long as he turns this offense around.

I'll give him and the team 2 more loses, but a 9-8 season or worse is unacceptable.

Great and very accurate list. Now can you hurry up and email this to Joe.

Not a terrible idea. Anything to get Gabe off the field. Hopefully Joe scrubs that shotgun draw too.

Week 11, this is who you want to win: Bills Ravens Browns Cardinals Titans Raiders Packers Vikings Eagles

I totally agree. Mentally he's clearly lost a level of focus. And I'm not going to list all the possibilities as to why. Only Josh can do this. He's getting conflicting messages from every direction. Brady has to slow him down some. Simplify the offense and reduce turnover situations. The biggest objective from here on out is somehow re-establishing confidence in himself. And I'm not talking about the whole team giving him a big hug. This has to come from Josh, with a sprinkling of help from Brady.
