Dubie54 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Q: Over the last three games, you guys have a total of 10 points in the first half. Have you been able to put your finger on anything for the slow start here? SM: I wish I could tell you. I really do. I wish I could tell you. We talk about it. We talk about being more detailed, getting into a rhythm early, playing complementary football and all three phases working together. We haven't been able to get into a good rhythm, obviously, in the first quarter. Let's just start there. So, just overall, we've got find the answers there. I get sick of his BS answers. How about “unacceptable” “we’re not maximizing our talent” “we’re too predictable” etc. etc. oh, but then he might hurt Dorsey’s feelings. 11 3 11 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vincec Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) Not good. He’s sounding like Chan Gailey… I suspect the last thing the players want to hear when things are off the rails is that the coach has no idea how to fix it.

BuffaloBillyG Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Even taking his coach speak at face value is a bad look. He's not a rookie coach. He's at the helm of a team that is playoff experienced, Super Bowl hopeful on a yearly basis. Last week there was a quote relayed by the telecast by Daboll. Pretty much said "Well, when something's wrong with the team the coaching staff gets paid to fix those problems." If after all these years the team is regressing and he doesn't have the answers...he becomes they answer to what is wrong. 2 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeLLy1278 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I don’t even know what the point is.. holding these press conferences before and after games. If they lost “well we have to watch the film and play better, coach it better.. have to do a better job, make the smart plays, take the yards when there is an opening. We have to correct our mistakes, less penalties..” and on and on and on like some recording. If they win “We’re gunna enjoy this one tonight and then get to work on our next opponent.. tough challenge so we have to be prepared.” YAWN The time to talk trash and back it up is on the field. This team is not ready. They don’t even seem like they’re close to being ready. 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I dont care and never cared what he says in press conferences. It's all media bull####. What matters is three weeks in a row he has not had his team prepared to play. To me that is very worrisome that he has lost the locker room(whatever that means). To me it means this team knows they are being outcoached. Diggs knows Dorsey is a clown. 5 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some coaches take responsibility. McIdiot demands accountability from everyone but himself. Should have been fired after 13 seconds and his doubling down on his own poor performance as a coach by putting down a gag order from even discussing what happened to coverup the clusterF that he was responsible for. I disliked him before 13 seconds. I’ve absolutely despised him since. He can’t be gone soon enough IMO. 1 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with the missed FG drive, that was also due to Josh taking a bad sack on third down. I am not saying everything was great today. But not sure what the coach is supposed to say when he is asked about the slow start on offense. Yeah, it would be great to start faster. But even with the slow start, if the players could execute a little better, they would have had 13 points at halftime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
