Yeah the only reason Andrew Berry has a job is he had nothing to do with getting rid of Mayfield or bringing in Watson.

That said until this last draft class, his drafts have been bad even knowing he had no first or second round picks to work with.

 

Stefanski is a terrible game manager. Relatively close game and he had his rookie QB throw 52 passes

 

Yep, wanting rid of Baker was Stefanski, being obsessed with Watson was Haslam. 

 

And yep, Stefanksi's game and clock management are awful. I made this point yesterday when people were shouting for him as a replacement for McDermott. I do think Stefanski can coach. He is a good offensive play designer. He has also been smart enough to hire a top DC and then give him control of the defense. But I think he is really a good OC masquerading as a Head Coach.

Remember when Andy Reid's game and clock management used to be awful? Then he got Mahomes, and now in the popular imagination of NFL fans he's been a flawless head coach since 1999.

So, Colts QB Anthony Richardson was a surprise inactive yesterday. Turns out he's injured AGAIN. Broken orbital bone from a stretch band. At least it wasn't a rubber mat, I guess.

The NFL continues to be very odd and whacky year to year. It's been a fun season thus far. There's still so much football left to play too.

Glenn could lose the locker room if he continues to start Fields.
