" hey Zach, when we get in the red zone, they are going to make this adjustment, I'm going to call an audible and I want you to change into this route " You see Hurts doing that? Yes…he has done things similar. Like the failed AJ deep ball against Seattle. Just got to the point where coaching had failed him to such a point of disgust they took matters into their own hands. Everything downhill after that.

April 25, 20242 yr You don’t see the coaches job as setting expectations? That he calls this play…D shows all these different looks and this is what the coach wants to happen? To me…that’s how football works.

That he calls this play…D shows all these different looks and this is what the coach wants to happen? To me…that’s how football works. What makes it to where I would have thought absolutely apparent being coaches not having answers was everybody knowing what the D is going to do yet still having playcalls that are terrible and can’t succeed. Then you can get into how the blocking assignments aren’t working. The WR aren’t adjusting effectively. The QB can’t beat the D.
April 25, 20242 yr Any QB just adjusts and executes according to the coaches plan, ideally. If the coach doesn’t have any answers nobody can succeed. Unless your whole argument is solely based on how uncoachable Hurts is.
April 25, 20242 yr 11 minutes ago, joemas6 said: Yes...Steichen unbelievable job keeping everything so simple and keeping Hurts out of mentally challenging situations. Steichen just understands how to gameplan and adjust. Playcall thinking ahead in a cohesive way. This play setting up the future plays and so on. Not just a bunch of individuals thoughts. But he has the knowledge and experience to counter. Coaches gotta have this ability. Do QBs? That’s above and beyond the job description there. Everybody has a job. QB isn’t HC, OC, QB coach….
April 25, 20242 yr 13 minutes ago, joemas6 said: Not really....the QB has final say. Obviously from a mental aspect ...Hurts needs work. Maybe less squatting and more study? Ignorant to even begin to state Hurts doesn’t study enough. Like he’s the one that needed the contract clause like Murray.
April 25, 20242 yr All this is why I’m stuck in this forum defending Hurts so much. I can see issues and areas he can improve. But seemingly everybody here attacks and blames him for everything. Can’t even possibly get much into where I’d like to get to things on improving Hurts.
April 25, 20242 yr Brady wasn’t the absolute genius to begin his career. They were cheating and knew the playcalls of the D. Wasn’t him just reading the D so well. You could ask JJ if he was still around. He wondered why it was like they knew his playcalls the whole second half. But you could ask Spags. How did he fair against Bellicheat and Brady those two SB after he knew they were cheating like that? Beat him both times. Hmmmmm
April 25, 20242 yr Did you watch the clip I posted from the Texans playoff victory? Coaching matters. DeMeco told his LB exactly what to do to make that game sealing interception. It was a thing of beauty. Great coaching!
April 25, 20242 yr Leap from DeMeco telling his LB exactly what to do to: you are so pissed at Hurts for not overcoming his bad coaching. Our D not overcoming their bad coaching. No Mas crying over Hurts not changing everything on his own carrying us to the promised land. What a huge Grand Canyon sized gap!
April 25, 20242 yr AR future Hall of Fame coach …best in the game today labeled The Bronze Standard by you….probably explains things. But only a tiny bit. You could bash AR yet place everything on Hurts?
April 25, 20242 yr Mahomes probably going down as the best QB ever…at least be in the conversation. Does anybody believe it’s because of his superior mental acumen? His knowledge of adjustments? His overcoming bad coaching and playcalling? He’s had AR. Massive advantage he has. He is mobile and a fantastic arm..can throw from crazy angles. But without the coaching answers he wouldn’t sniff the conversation of greatest. Great gameplans, playcalling, adjustment answers, QBing coaching….he’s benefitted from having all this.
April 25, 20242 yr 2 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: Marino and Johnny Unitas had Shula. Montana and Young…Walsh. Coaching matters. You admitted Hurts changed the play vs Seattle where he went deep to AJ for the interception on the final play. That means Hurts knows he can audible. That means he knows he could call a hot route or adjust his protection when it's that obvious 6 on 5 situation. It's not coaching... it's basic football. He needs to improve on his mental game. Facts....no matter how you want to spin it.
April 25, 20242 yr 11 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: That’s what they’ve done though. We all know they’ll hire an O minded HC also. So Fangio probably survives Siri getting fired. No it isn’t lol Fangio isn’t likely to stay just like Jim Schwartz didn’t stay after Doug got canned. Reality if we are that bad this year means our O likely to be mid and we are going to have a bad D
April 25, 20242 yr 3 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: Jeremiah has us trading with the Broncos. Broncos 12 Eagles 22, 50 and5th rounder Can totally see this. In fact, that exact trade is what I predicted in my final mock draft I posted on Tuesday. But I have them taking Arnold instead of Fuaga. I'm not sure how I'd feel if they moved up to 12 and took Fuaga. He's one of those types that seem to project better at G "but can play tackle in a pinch". That said, I haven't researched him much. If they trade up to 12 for him, it better be because he WILL be the future RT. Trading up to 12 for a lifetime G would be a terrible waste of resources. Arnold or Mitchell would be a much better use of those resources.
April 25, 20242 yr Although I think we move up, have to wonder who on our wish lists would still be available at 22, saving those picks for later, maybe even moving up from the 2nd rd

April 25, 20242 yr I heard possibility of 3 team trade... Denver, New England and the Eagles. We get Surtain, Denver gets pick 3...New England gets a couple 1st round picks plus more.
