Coach Tuesday

Jesus the Jets are terrible.

There are few things worse in life than watching Gardner Minshew play quarterback. Also, I don’t think I’ve seen the Falcons or Redskins make a tackle in over a decade.

Reports are that they’re trading him before the deadline.

That was my concern with him - whether he could accelerate and change direction with enough suddenness. Clearly he can.

Supposedly he’s good at making the calls, but who really knows.

My biggest concern with Beane has always been whether he can sufficiently evaluate skill position players on offense, especially at the collegiate level. I have been concerned that without help from an experienced set of coaches on that side of the ball he was flailing to evaluate talent. His initial personnel decisions and evaluations on offense, both in free agency/trades and the draft, both at WR and offensive line, were terrible. Ford over Metcalf is an example but there are worse ones - Benjamin, Corey Coleman, whatever it was that the 2018 offensive line can be called, etc. But he has now hit on the most important skill position in sports, and has hit on Singletary, Knox (at times), Smoke Brown, Diggs via trade, Beazers, and now Gabe Davis. I am still concerned about the overall lack of speed but I suspect that’s a next offseason priority and we know they tried to trade up for Duvurnay (some would say he was lucky again in having to settle for Gabe Davis). But Beane seems to be getting it, or at least has a more competent team of evaluators on that side of the ball.

Phrasing!

Here’s what I’ll say about this: the small flashlight on the manscaped razor is truly one of those “they thought of everything” features. Mad props.

Fant may be the worst/laziest blocker in the NFL.

... and behind the curve on the Oliver pick...

Foles is trash.

You kidding me Foles can’t hit a three yard out with no pressure? What is wrong with that guy?

Still the 🐐 Steve. I miss the waitress thread.

Ah, the internet.

WHY DO YOU EVEN HAVE THAT

Long thread here but has anyone mentioned the irony that it was a former Bill, Greg Mabin, who appears to have been the Titans’ Patient Zero?

Levi Wallace is made of glass.

More like snooze, or Sanus, amirite?

He was never able to run, and now he really can't. WASHED.

I predict we win all our wins.

Better become a really good guard to justify that high pick.

Does this count as a Tweet? Agree his blocking has gotten much better.

Seriously what is Edelman’s issue? He’s hurt right? Diving as soon as he catches it, won’t block, and now that - he should not be out there.

Edelman is making lots of business decisions tonight. Refusing to even block.

On some level though the timing just doesn’t make sense to me. They started the season with the hardest 3 games imaginable and were a challenge call away from tying the game against Minnesota. Why now? All the stupid moves were made in the off-season. Why fire him after a brutal stretch of games to start the season?
