I would say Hurts was average today. Not bad, not great.

But agree the issue all year was an offense with a bad scheme that was poorly called

Less effective run game which was partly caused by O-line injuries and Hurts not running nearly as much.

Just about everyone on the O-line took a step back this year, whether from injury or not.

Sirianni and KP deserve blame but Stoutland gets a share of that too this year.

They were limited because coming off the Super Bowl they were already LATE. You can't arbitrarily say it's not a disadvantage to be searching after the Super Bowl just because. Unless you misunderstood what I meant by limited, I mean a limited TALENT POOL.

Seems to be a good year for a team looking for an OC.

I’d love Stepanski or McDaniels, but unsure if either would be willing to be a OC. It’s an attractive destination too. Great front office, good talent, you pretty much should be granted free rein to run your system. I’m optimistic.

This place is boring…

Bring back bacarty, downundermike, eaglesnest guy, and most of all… Shocker!

The 49ers ran an offense in a cave! with scraps! and they got guys open all night.

Wouldn't that be an indictment on the defense?

I want a home run hitting running back in this draft. Are there any in the mid rounds?

which round are you looking to do that in

This was absolutely infuriating at the end. They had 3 full time outs with over 1:38 left to play and they started burning the clock down when they were at the 25 yard line. Acting as if them scoring was a "given" when they hadn't scored a 2nd half TD in close to a month. Should have obviously rushed to the line, saving as much time as possible so in case they didn't score, they could still get the ball back with some time had they preserved their timeouts. Mind boggling.

I give Sirianni a pass on that exchange. He was yelling at him too get off the field. Coaches have been yelling at players regarding that since the game was invented. Brown is a diva and narcissist. And say what you will about Sirianni, but he faced the music after the game. Brown declined to speak to the media. But, I'm sure he'll throw out some cryptic tweet some time after midnight.

Siri can give it up and youll still see the trash offense. Hurts told you numerous times this is how he wants it to be.

He will run the offense the new OC forces him to and if he can’t he’ll be gone too

Meh really its 2 drops

The one in the 4th by AJ. Went right through his hands. Bad drop.

The one to smitty was really high and smitty barely got a hand on it. Not really a drop.

The other AJ drop wasnt really a drop, sure it hit his outreached hand barely but it was also a clear illegal contact by the DB that wasnt called.

Not really a drop.

Then the obvious barkley drop where he just took his eyes off the ball

Bad drop, probably wouldnt have got the 1st anyway.

I dunno man, I am just thinking if we have to keep Hurts, having a guy that can break long ones might open up the pass offense a bit?

Too bad he made a bunch of bad 4th down calls that gave other teams easy scores. Also, stop sidetracking, I asked you what they did well. Exactly what did they contribute to their teams?

And for that matter, especially before 2025, what did Campbell contribute that you had clear evidence of to their team?

The point that I'm getting at is in the vast majority of situations, if a head coach doesn't call plays, you don't know what they contribute. That doesn't mean they contribute nothing, that means you, a fan, who is an outside, do not know exactly what is and is not contributed by them. This is normal if you're not one of the arrogant dopes who thinks being a fan means you know everything about the team. You don't.

Who does the gameplan? What people do what parts of the gameplan? Is it done all by one person or broken into chunks? Who designs the full scheme? Who tweaks it? Does someone tweak it? Who does installs? Are they done as a group? Who does what they do in practices? How they practice? Who sets up the audibles? The language? The checks? Route concepts?

You know exactly none of these things. Fans are obsessed with play-calling because it's the thing they can definitively prove, thanks to the cameras showing the person holding the play sheet in front of his mouth. But in reality, there's WAY more that goes into NFL offenses and defenses, and if you really thought hard enough, you'd know that. You really think that the difference between Vic's defense and Sean Desai's defense is only that Fangio is a better playcaller? Stop kidding yourself.

You don't understand what NFL coaches do and don't do well, unless they're quality play callers, or their role has been clearly defined. So stop asking loaded questions - is what I'd say, but I'm sure you'll continue anyway, since confirmation bias.

I just said what Campbell did. He fired his OC took over play calling and had a top 5 offense. Outside of 2 years of elite OC’s in Moore and Steichen, Siri has been out coached when it matters. As an offense, we have had one of if not the most stacked offense in the league. He’s supposed to be an offensive guy. Don’t call plays, fine. But the unit was bad at every level and he couldn’t fix anything. So the thing he’s supposed to be good at, he can’t help in any way.

The difference between Vic and Desai is obviously the ability to develop and coach talent as well as call plays. Who has Siri developed on the other side of the ball? Who has he coached up? Nobody. Nobody has gotten better bec of him. He has been handed studs all over the roster.

I’ve asked you plenty of times what he does well and you haven’t named one thing. I’m done here. Go give Siri a bj since apparently he’s your man.

Basically running streaks into the end zone when they could have had a first down with a decent slant/cross etc etc wowowowowowowowow

Part of me wonders if Howie will think this has become a Hasaan Reddick type situation.

No one saw that trade coming but Eagles determined he wasn't a team player and traded him away.

Only the dummies that like CEO coaches will.

Who cares? Harbaugh is a hot commodity and a CEO coach. And what about the defensive oriented head coaches they'd lose OC's if they did well too. This obsession that the head coach has to be a great o play caller just isn't supported by anything other than Andy Reid who was actually our coach for 10+ years and never won here

While you watch and finger yourself

Avant made some great points about the play calling and the lack of creativity. He and Roob were killing the play design on the last play. And the WRs

Yup. And Hurts threw it into triple coverage because he was staring down Goedert the entire time. Meanwhile, the in to the left was much more open, because of how much he manipulated the LB right to where he was looking to throw the ball. Or throw it to either of the 1 on 1's and hope that your receiver can win, but don't throw it into triple coverage.

Sure, whatever. He could have thrown into tight coverage to the left too I guess. Probably would have been a pick because there were two in routes going right into each other.

Like this isn’t that hard to understand Zach Berman from the divisional round on was saying that Moore was wink wink the next coach of the Saints. Basically everyone knew he was. Especially when they got to conference championship round. Zach Berman and EJ Smith on two different podcasts, they wanted to hire Pattulo and basically all but made it official. like if journalist/reporters know this then it wasn’t a well kept secret.

They really ran 4 verticals on 4th and 11 with the game on the line. Just get rid of them All

I think the Lions are a far more attractive destination. Plus not sure Mcdaniels will be an option due to his history with Fangio.
