Slater on coaching search

[darthseinfeld]

Agree but if they ask for full control couldn't blame then. Whereas all the other teams they would have control without asking. Only the boys.

Define full control? Very few coaches have full control over personnel. In fact Billicheck may be the only one right now.

Will probably want what JJ and Tuna had here.

You ask me the scouting staff has done its job. You cant fault them because Marinelli wanted Hill over one of the safeties. We have a playoff caliber roster, we should be finishing somewhere in top 10 of the league. Its on the coaches to prepare the team for games

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

You are either being overly dramatic or you don’t understand this sport.

Find a single expert analyst that agrees with you.
They are not all wrong while you are right.

I understand it perfectly. Something isnt right with this team if everyone simultaneously regresses within a season with the exception of like 3 players. Our coaching absolutely blows, but tell name one player that has looked great these last 2 weeks. Poor tackling, bad passes, 1st in drops, isn’t all on coaching.

Even if they did get a new HC, our players are straight up atrocious. What are we gonna do about that, eh? We need to rebuild. Everyone on that defense was terrible last night. Offense was a hot mess and can only play in garbage time. We need a new team in general. Maybe keep the receivers but besides that I want this team rebuilt. How long will a rebuild take...?

Omg man you need to stop. This is a great roster with a horrible head coach. A new voice can right the ship in weeks not years like you’re talking. Again proving you know little to nothing about this sport and have never played. You also weren’t around I’m 2011 when Jason freaking Garrett righted the ship in 2 weeks. Just stop pretending you know what you’re talking about. It’s not fooling anyone.

Wow, we’re up early aren’t we? Even after what you said last night? Admitting that this team quit? Sorry if I’m angry. I’m just asking, who played well last night? I genuinely can’t think of anyone that’s played great these past two weeks. You can blame it on them giving up on Garrett, but how many tackles did our players miss last night? How many passes did our #1 in drops receiving core drop last night? How many bad passes did Dak have last night? How much pressure did our O-line allow last night? Genuine questions. You think all of this can be saved with a new HC/coaching staff?

I doubt it. Thats very rare these days. Coaches nowadays stay out of front decisions. To many failed duel GM/Coaches killed it.

How does an entire roster regress in one year

I do not know much about the Clemson OC but that sounds very intriguing. I watch Clemson a lot and they are a powerhouse on offense. Looks like Jerry and Stephen have been looking around for a while and doing their homework.

The Clemson OC would be 1a and Meyer 1b. Do not think you could go wrong with either.

This just might be the coaching.

I guess we’ll see next year when our new coaching comes in.

You tell me.

[noshame]

Ill take either one. Gladly

 

[uvaballa]

No to Riley please. He doesn’t look like a great coach. Bring in Urban and I bet he’ll fix things.

I havent had the opportunity to read up on him yet, but was he there for Watson? Watson was far more prepared for the NFL than anyone realized.

Clemsons success recently is enough to be interested in their coaches. However I think Watsons preperation for the pro's is a real good sign

Coaching

I understand Garrett sucks, and I want him fired ASAP, but besides Kellen Moore, why did we have such success last year vs this year even though it’s he same roster and basically the same coaches? I know the Amari trade made a big difference, but did his homecoming to Dallas really change that much?

 

[DakBringMeBack]

Cause I’m sure Jerry sits down and tells Jane Slater his plans

 

[cowboyblue22]

there are going to be huge changes in dallas next year from the coaching staff to lots of players but if u want to see what quit looks like if u watched the game last night that is what u saw

You know where to start looking, look at the lack of preparation early in the early season losses. We got exposed as underprepared for the season after the cupcake schedule. Starting with a Saints team that was weaker than the Saints team we beat last year
