We are always out coached.

This is one of the stupider posts I've seen in quite some time.

Sure as hell isn't better than McVay or Shanahan.

This is not some indictment on Macdonald.

McVay is one of the best coaches in the league.

Let's see how this defense adjusts in quarters 2-4.

In fact they just had a 3 and out.

Now it's up to Kubiak to show he can get out a sticky situation.

LONG DRIVE HERE. Let's go.

Fair enough. Should he be though? He's in year 2. What's the years of HC experience with the other 2?

They are going for it on 4th down. Those conversions translate into later TDs.

Our other problem is trying to force the run, which leads to demanding Darnold be perfect or it turns to a punt or FG.

We need to throw the ball for TDs if we want to win this.

We need to keep the ball away from Stafford and give the defense a breather.

They are currently listening to your coaching advice.

All these coaches are young. Get ready for years of these chess matches. Doesn’t mean any of them suck.

Inside the RZ, we need to be passing the ball...not running.

We should have a 3 to 1 if not 4 to 1 pass to run ratio in the RZ.

Our RBs are not good enough to depend on, and more defenders are packed in that space making it harder for a RB to do anything. Which translates into lots of FGs and few, if any, TDs.

I'm not okay with defeatist game plans so that our defense can be nice and rested at the end of the game.
