Kolek planning to go pro
Unusual bad coaching by LeFluer. Running at will for a quarter and a half and then he turns into Matt Nagy.
I’ve talked about it here before. LaFleur is one of the worst coaches I’ve seen with a lead (insert joke about being with the Falcons for the SB collapse). He and Rodgers go into cruise control so early, and it comes back to bite them. One thing that sets the Chiefs apart the last few years is the killer instinct to bury teams when they can. The Packers seem to want to get 2 scores up and then glide. They are good enough and fortunate enough to escape, but there is little reason they shouldn’t be putting up even more points. They have scored over 40 just 3 times, only once since week 3, but have had over 20 points in the first half in about 5-6 other games.They are a very good team, LaFleur is a good coach and a good offensive mind, but he’s just inflicted with the gun shy conservatism that 90% of the coaches in the league seem to have the minute the 3rd quarter begins and they are ahead.
Jets can't even lose right!Who has the tiebreaker between the Jets and Jags?
REALLY excited for the Bears to finish 8-8 and Mitch playing moderately respectable the last few games. Resign Mitch, keep Nagy cause he finished with promise...and we can all ignore the Bears for the next 3 years as they chill in purgatory
If you’re fine with “it was close but they still won” then ok. But the Jax and Carolina games had no business being one possession games late with no second half offense to speak of. The Philly game while a bit fluke, was close late cause they coasted. The Packers have been fortunate for the most part and got the job done, but letting mediocre teams hang around is a recipe for disaster in the NFL. There is a difference between scoring 20 in the second half and scoring 3 or 7/8.Again, LaFleur is a good coach and is a far cry from pathetic game management like Nagy or Lynn. But it’s just a curious divergence from an offense that often comes out firing on all cylinders.
I was really shocked listening to WSCR this morning. Almost to a man, they are convinced Mitch has turned the corner. Never once did I hear them mention that it has been against two of the absolute worst defenses in the league. And now they get Jacksonville. Bears fans need to prepare to have Nagy and Trubisky around for a few more years.
Well, they probably shouldn't have made a QB change when they were sitting at 3-0.
Yup Seeing the offense/mitch succeed against bad defenses is some fool's gold.However, the Oline and the playcalling does appear to be improved compared to earlier in the season. Injuries forced oline changes. And playcalls appear to favor individual strengths rather than trying to force any one style/scheme
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
From what I’m hearing/seeing Thinking Pat Fitzgerald to the NFL this offseason may actually be a reality.
