dawkins4prez Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 There are few things in this world that I will ever understand less than the hype that got McDaniels so many job offers. Like it was entirely built on him playing hard to get. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 The Belicheat coaching tree strikes again What amazed me with the McDaniels hire is the length of the contract. There was no way in hell you should be giving him 6 years when he proved how much he sucked the first time around. He also had enough arrogance to bail on the Colts job after he accepted it. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he goes back to the Pats and he ends up being the successor there for a third shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdman#12 Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 The raiders have had 13 coaching changes in 23 years and they all had bad records. Most of these guys were highly thought of coordinators or coaches, but they never could make the raiders contenders. So was it the coaches or the terrible owner, scouting departments or GM's? I think it's the front office......and I don't know why any coach would want that job working for mark davis and that front office. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would normally make fun of that kind of team and its fans, but in this case, I do feel a little bad for one fan of the Raiders. My oldest brother is a lifelong Raiders fan.

Will be interesting to see if they can keep it going next week against the Jets who have a much stingier defense.

Firing McDaniels only "proves" that he shouldn't have been hired. It doesn't "prove" that the previous coach shouldn't have been fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got a nice defensive nucleus, but I see a 6-11 squad whenever I'm unfortunate enough to catch some Falcons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were never going to win many games with Ridder at QB, but they had a top 5 D and lost to the Vikings down their starting QB, back up QB and number 1 WR.

Mat Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Did anyone honestly think the Panthers were going to be a good team this year, particularly on offense? These are the offensive starters at the skills positions RB: Sanders/Hubbard WR: Thielen WR: Chark WR: Mingo TE: Hurst Sanders was relegated to the back up and was their big off-season signing, Thielen has been good for them but is about 100 years old, Chark was really good in his second season and never hit that form again, Mingo is a rookie and Hurst a dude that will bounce around from team to team and not provide much. Defensively it got so bad that they went out and signed Blake Martinez. A dude that retired to sell (scam) Pokemon cards. I would say Reich is safe, they really do need to sign some decent FA's this off-season though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he were fired, I would give him another shot somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seemed solid enough at the LOS, defense not bad. The weaponry is mediocre but there are worse out there, it really comes down to Bryce Young. I didn't like his ceiling but he was supposed to be solid day 1. I also thought the Texans were going to be a frisky 8-9 win team, I may have underestimated them.

VaBeach_Eagle Posted November 14, 2023 Author Share Posted November 14, 2023 The Bills fired their OC... desperation act? Could McDermott be on the warm seat? I wouldn't think so, but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LacesOut Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 When HCs fire Coordinators during mid-season, IMO, that means the heat is getting closer to said HC. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawkins4prez Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 McDermott's always been a bit overrated going way back since his days in Philly, but he's been a decent HC for Buffalo. I don't thin they are the type of franchise to fire him for 1 down season in a stacked AFC when the roster is clearly flawed. IMO, this has to do with some panic around Josh Allen's regression since Daboll left. They wanted that rooted out ASAP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 I'd say he is safe. He has runs on the board and it depends how they go next season ans the shape of the roster. They have a makeshift D with a ton of injuries, interesting they fired their OC because Allen has been turnover prone throughout his career anyway.
