January 15, 20241 yr It sucks to get embarrassed by a below-average team like the Packers, but all this showed me was the 49er blowout was going to happen again. This team sucked in every big game they played this year except the Lions game, I guess. Honestly, even though Dak sucked, the defense was horrible. Dan Quinn clearly one foot out the door in Seattle and Parsons needs to shut his trap next year until he does something in the playoffs.To be fair, they sucked in the Lions game too…

January 15, 20241 yr With a Total QBR of 99.3, Love became the first player to post a 99 QBR in a playoff game since ESPN began the metric in 2006, bettering Josh Allen's 98.8 in a 2021 wild-card game.Nice…

That comeback vs Atlanta was great, I got nothing else. I’m not saying I’m a big Danny white fan. And those losses in champ games had much to do with Landry’s failures in the Flex and his reliance on Ernie Stautner on defense. I’m saying it’s a long walk in the desert right now.The team isn’t getting sold. Under the reality it’s time for Jerry to do what must be done. This team is loaded with talent. And was absolutely destroyed. Jerry needs to retire and hand the reins to the kids. Charlotte as the team president. Stephen as football operations. Will McClay as GM. Jerry as whatever he does. And where does it go.

The defense was definitely the worst part but Dak was ALMOST as equally shitty. While he wound up with more than 400 yards passing, he had ZERO in the first quarter and 62 as the Packers built a 27-0 lead. That included one pick-6 and almost another that set up a very short field for the Packers' second TD. Dak was absolute trash but, hey, he got some nice garbage time stats in the second half. He's the poster boy for empty stats. 7 hours ago, TonyTexas said: Since the Texans came into existence 2 hours ago, hookem48 said: Jerry's 81 years old and he's made $8 billion on his $150 million investment and you're talking tee shirt sales?

Trouble is that Jimmy's fingerprints were all over putting that team together.
January 15, 20241 yr Is McCarthy back in the barn yet for another year (or two or three) of studying "NFL trends and analytics"? Edited January 15, 20241 yr by gofuckyourself And can he take Quinn with him?

January 15, 20241 yr Bill Barnwell had some interesting stats in his ESPN.com weekend NFL playoff wrapup: https://www.espn.com/nfl/insider/story/_/id/39309176/nfl-wild-card-playoffs-2023-offseason-questions-losing-teams-browns-dolphins-cowboys-rams Quote The bigger problems Sunday were on the defensive side of the ball. The Packers averaged 0.39 expected points added per play (EPA/play), which was the sixth-best offensive performance of the season. If we take out the fourth quarter, when they mostly were sitting on the football, they generated 0.57 EPA per play, which was the best single offensive performance by any team all season, topping the Dolphins dropping 70 on the Broncos. Quote More than anything, the Cowboys looked undisciplined and sloppy. Jones ran through multiple tackles from linebacker Markquese Bell. Cornerback DaRon Bland played off coverage on a third-and-4 that produced a quizzically easy conversion for tight end Luke Musgrave. Corner Stephon Gilmore tried to peek into the backfield in zone coverage and slipped, allowing Doubs to be wide-open for a 46-yard completion on a play where only two receivers went out on routes. Bell and safety Donovan Wilson both chased Love on a boot play, leaving Musgrave open across the field on a classic leak concept for a 38-yard touchdown. With 17.2 yards of separation, Musgrave was more wide open than any other receiver has been on a pass all season, per NFL Next Gen Stats. Edited January 15, 20241 yr by C-Man

January 15, 20241 yr Every dollar feeds the beast if you will. He's not going to suddenly go broke by any stretch , but numbers sliding south even if they are still in the millions speak to numbers people like the Jones empire. The tickets get sold. The real estate continues to appreciate. The TV money comes rolling in. Jerry rescued this franchise from the gotterdamerung it was headed to with latter Murchison and Bum Bright.He is not the only the field shitting, Dak was. He wasn’t fucking up, parsons was. He doesn’t call plays. He has a personnel staff with his son and will McCain with 9 fucking pro bowlers, a top qb, a top WR, talented o linemen, which performed in season. Got a 2 seed. Shit the bed again. Jerry had nothing to do with that. That’s on Mike, Quinn, the position coaches, and the team leaders. It’s not working. Jerry needs to realize it’s endemic in the culture going back to Wade. And he’s an enabler of it. His attitude, his lack of accountability for players, the poshness of the Star. Softness. Id like to see a driver like vrabel and a new qb, a top Qb coach, a dc focused on the modern game.

So to get Lamb going, he calls a fucking slant right into traffic, pick 6. Dak should have held on to that ball, but at some point, when everyone is covered every play, you have to make a throw. If he takes a sack or throws it away, fans yell that he sucks for not throwing it, without considering that nobody is fucking open because McCarthy got owned and can’t adjust. If I were Dak, I’d beg for a trade. Edited January 15, 20241 yr by 'stache

January 15, 20241 yr What I remember most about McCarthy's hire, was that FJJ didn't interview anybody else (or maybe one or so). In an industry/sport filled with up'n'comers, filled with innovative minds and future hall of fame coaches, that stupid fucking hillbilly hired a coach nobody else wanted without talking to any other candidates. How many fucking years of grief with this fuck who was goddamn out of fucking work - and wasn't going anywhere. I think the hire came down to the fact that McCarthy came cheap. Seems to me that many years ago I heard an interview with Pete Carroll who interviewed with Jones, maybe when he was leaving UCLA, or thinking about it, but he said that he and Jerry had agreed to everything - set to go, but then the Cowboys came thru with an offer - an offer which Carroll said would have made him the lowest paid coach in the league. He knew right then it was time to cut bait. Jones of course ends up hiring one of those transition groups, maybe Chan Gailey or Dave Campo - complete duds. Now everyone is talking about Bellichick, a coach who has a major losing record in the NFL in all games without Tom Brady. A coach who couldn't innovate any kind of return for New England post Brady. A coach who told his owner that Brady should be traded, that he was done. (After which, Brady goes down to Tampa and wins another Super Bowl.) I hope FJJ doesn't make the same fucking mistake he made when he hired Fat Fuck.
