Twitter: Players speaking out on coaching "Totally unprepared, etc"

[Whirlwin]

The only good thing about this franchise, is Prescott. And nobody wanted to pay him. He made everyone else look better. Even Ezekiel Elliott shortcomings which most people don’t want to admit. He’s had more fun with the last two seasons then I can freaking count. More fumbles than touchdowns I know that for fact .

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Someone needs to call him out. I know he blamed himself, but this is more than one game he has multiple fumbles. Something is wrong with him and I don’t think it’s because he is declining. This team is not focused at all. MM isnt supposed to be a baby sitter but he ain’t being the discipline type HC I thought he was. I thought I heard a retired player from the packers say that MM won’t put up with sloppy unfocused play. Could have fooled me. These guys aren’t even in the same stadium.

Remember CV19 cost them OTAs, preseason games, and most training camp. My guess he's STILL learning a lot about most if not all players. What they do best, what they don't do best, how they respond to this or that, not easy. Fans forget Garrett could have told you back of each player's hand, that's well he knew this team and rightly so after 9 years. So my is he's trying to EVERY player a clean slate and go from there. But I definitely expect we'll see him making lots of changes after the season.

 

[Ranched]

Nothing new. Players who under-perform are always going to toss the coaches under the bus. They think it will get them off the hook from their pathetic performance.

 

[TheDude]

Not sure if that's just Nolan or all of them. MM being a fraud becoming more obvious. I disliked Garrett but this kind of story never came out while players were on the team. Irving, Dez and Bennett said some things after they were gone about favoritism or vanilla play calling, but nothing like this

You missed 2008 then

I would like to make that Excuse also . But I just don’t think it’s true. You have plenty of time to put a system in place. This is your job do it.

This is really poor form. The loss last night wasn't from lack of coaching, it was from VERY poor play.

Where were the adjustments in the game? Actually where have the adjustments been all season. This coaching staff is utterly useless along with the players.

 

[Whirlwin]

It starts from the owner and trickles down. If you can’t stop micromanaging. You’re never going to have a winning team. If you don’t allow your coaches to hire and fire their own coaches. You’re never going to have a winning team. If you don’t allow. I could go on and on. It starts at the top.

 

[Hadenough]

Players don't matter. Coaches don't matter. The results are always the same. Jerry and Stephen are the only one left to blame. I'm glad I went to bed at halftime. They are gonna lose to the Commanders next week too. Probably will turn it off at halftime again.

[Hawkeye0202]

I’m not sure Jerry can’t micromanage and get out of the way. And until he’s able to do that no coach is going to be totally in control

True but JJ can't control who plays ......this is why if I'm MM, some will start riding the bench if they don't get their axx in gear

He just has to throw some weight around. He was saying it was the best week of prep we have had all year.. Lol, really. He needs to do something new. Cause this is not working for me at all. Lol. I would have benched Elliot for the rest of the night. And if I see one more person totally screw up and smile or laugh about it I will scream.

 

[Tommy]

Not tough. Its just very feminine for dudes to constantly try to defend idgit when im not talking to them. Are you his wife? He's a grown man that can respond to me if he wants to.

What is feminine for a dude is when he controlled by his emotions. You appear to have that problem. Try to relax.

 

[cowboyblue22]

i dont know what the players are griping about most of them couldnt make a good jv college team

 

[GridironGreat]

Trade Zeke. Sign Dak. Go defense and o-line.

I know some people want to trade Cooper, but I’d keep him and see if Gallup or Lamb can really step into a #1 spot.

There’s plenty of FA RBs who can come in and split carries with Pollard.

It’s time to cut ties with Smith and hope Martin and Collins can help bring on a new offensive line.

Who within this organization is good at their jobs?

L.P. Ladouceur

This is true but w/o preseason games, they didn't get a chance test system against live competition until the regular-season started it.
It's why some were saying the first 4 regular-season games were like preseason.

Yep. Not like the season is on the line. Our division sucks and we are still in first place so I know we won’t blow it up or tank. It if we start dropping the division games then it’s done and I am starting to look at these young players we have and giving them lots of snaps.

Yep and we were 2-2 and last night started the season. It was gross. I know with the injuries and no Dak it’s going to be really hard. But that looked like the worst game so far. Is Dalton going to be this bad

Agree totally if we start losing divisional games.......
