Not even close. Schottenheimer’s teams were tough and physical. They played great run defense and were physical on both sides of the ball. he was an excellent head coach who developed not only players but coaches too. its a shame he never made it to a Super Bowl, he was a much better coach than Dan reeves and Sam Wyche. Just had bad luck against Denver. schottenheimer would have Parcells legacy if he had Josh Allen for 8 years. if you want a more accurate coach to compare McDermott to it’s probably Jason Garrett. He is our Jason Garrett. Ironically it was McDermotts lousy defense in Philadelphia that broke the cowboys playoff winless streak to Garrett’s offense. after like a decade in Dallas the organization was taking away all his gameday duties and making sure he wasn’t calling plays. He never developed any coaches, just like McDermott. we are stuck with McDermott and his lousy defense jus like the cowboys were stuck with Garrett until the players basically revolted against him in 2019. That won’t happen here.

I think Barkley hurt himself on that last drive. Eagles look like they took some injuries today. Rams are all set to take over the NFC. Not having to go to philly would be pretty big for the rams.

his zero catches on the year would be great. He could stand next to samuel and ed oliver on the sideline during the games and talk about all the stuff they are going to buy with their money.

This is the hope. A nice 38-13 blowout where they come out and play loose thursday. It is going to be a KC home game thursday. Cowboys fans sell their tickets for profit when they play a team that travels well like the chiefs. Chances are KC wins by 10 or more and Dallas makes it a game late and comes up short.

No thanks. Exact kind of guy I don't want. I do not think he cares if the team wins or loses. All about himself and he loses focus all the time and makes mistakes. No where near the money he is paid just like the qb.

Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb are two of the highest paid players in the league. I wouldn't want either anywhere near my team. These guys have got paid for beating bad teams year after year and losing every important game they have ever played and they both pretty much always play poorly in the big games. Fun to watch Dallas get blown out. Maybe they will be so loose thursday after this they beat the chiefs.

what kind of question is this. Also I have no idea where I can or can not talk about a certain team so I am not going to talk about that certain team at all today.

Barring Injuries I think today the eagles start their march to back to back championships. If they win big today I am not sure they lose again. They are talented on all three units and have an excellent veteran defensive coordinator. Maybe the rams will give them a game again for three quarters in the playoffs but I don't think they are going to lose.

the name of the thread is coaching is the key. So which is it with the colts and seattle, the coaching or the qb's?

the colts and seattle had the same coaching staffs last year and missed the playoffs.

So you haven't watched them all year and yet you make a thread calling them Fool's Gold? Kind of odd.

They have all the parts to stop every offense. They are extremely talented. Yet they are 6-5. You know why? They stink on offense and don't score a lot points. Until they play Sean McDermott's defense.

There were countless people here who wanted to give up multiple picks including a first rounder for this guy.

playing from behind on the road is hard. When the defense gives up a bunch of huge highlight plays and backbreaking drives in the first half and you are losing doesn't mean they aren't the culprit when the offense, the qb doesn't save the day late in the game.

oh well. I am not torturing myself over this loss like the atlanta and miami games. its who the team is. Just started a rewatch of breaking bad so I am going to the crystall palace to watch jesse pinkman eat rice and beans.

give me a break. The defense vs atlanta in the first half was about as bad as a pro football team can play defense in this league.

he damn well better not get resigned.

Confident enough that their was no reason to take a risk. Do you think they would not have gone for and got the 4th and 2 in the 4th qtr if they needed to? They punted because they knew they had control of the game and could just pin the bills offense down inside the 20. They also had multiple drops from wide open wr'.

I think McGovern has been banged up since the KC game personally. He is getting up late a lot after plays. Hopefully this ten days off will help him.

the defense was practice squad and rookies. Tonight they had their core guys sans rapp, hill and hoecht. The defense can not be this bad missing three starters. It just can't. They got stops later in the game in part because Houston was fine with punting on a few of those 4th and short to midrange because they knew there defense had the game under control. If Houston needed to they could have been more aggressive later in the game, there was no reason to do that however.

they are prescription glasses. he talked about it a couple of times. his glasses are irrelevant. His inability to get players to run his defense effectively after all this time is the major issue with this team. The whole tone of the game is set every week by the defense's inability to stop the run, football 101. Evreything goes off that. unless the quarterback is superman and pulls miracles out of his hat every week which no one can do this team is in a tough spot because the defense can not do the basics.

Sean McDermott sounded like a complete sadsack in the postgame show. A guy with no answers.

23 points is more than 19. They gave up a back breaking TD drive before the half, with a horrific TD play with 9 seconds left and no timeouts. that drive was a game changing situatilon. also the defense even when they got stops got pushed down the field and allowd the texans punter to pin them down giving the offense terrible field position all game. They allowed one of the leagues worst offenses, with the backup qb playing to dictate the rhythm of the game more or less and he was under no pressure except for a few plays on the first drive and the last two drives. That Td before the half is the kind of crap that gets u beat. make them kick a field goal and we are 8-3 right now.

Sean McDermott has not earned the right to keep firing coordinators. We have watched his defense blow it over and over year after year. He is in no position to fire the guy whose offense carried the team last year and has put up a ton of points this year in games his lousy defense can not get stops.

Yes. The terrible defense is maddening however. I just don't understand how they are so bad when its the same system and all veteran players except really two or three guys.
