The offensive mistakes were a lot like colts  yesterday in the red zone with the dropped passes. Red zone always comes along last with a new QB.

 

 

IMO... 2 good rosters... lost to very bad rosters lol.. 

Coaching.... 

One coach is a rook though...

coaches didn’t make players drop passes or fumble the ball.  That is not on coaches that’s on players. 

Actually most do blame coaches for that especially turnovers because its a sign of an undisciplined team which is something the coach is responsible for.  Listen to any former player or coach anywhere and they will tell you sloppy play (turnovers, drops, penalties, etc) goes on the coach.

Play calling... decisions.... etc.. vs player performance.... 

Two things. Both impact. 

 

It's why some coaches win more... some less lol.

So, Cincinnati loses 23-20 to Pittsburgh at home by playing sloppy. Tennessee loses to the Giants 21-20 at home playing sloppy. Now we have the Broncos losing to maybe the worst team in the league 17-16 with terrible coaching. Lol, yeah our tie isn't near as bad as those debacles. Point is, any given Sunday/Monday.

Out of all of those I kind of understand the Bengals loss. Burrow had no camp from having his appendix out. I imagine he lost weight and a still is not tidally himself.

you’re comparing a rookie hc to a coach that has been coaching for 5 years.  That isn’t good lol

No coach period kicks a 64 yard FG at 4th and 5 when you have Russell Wilson. There is no excuse for that.

Frank would've went for it and still got criticized in here had we not got it. What kind of bozo try's to kick a 64 yard FG when you have Russell Wilson? That was the worst call of the week. It doesn't matter if he is a rookie or not - I agree.

@TaylorTheStudMuffin, all in all our tie is ok. It sucks we didn't get an actual win but we didn't lose either. We are tied for 1st in the division and had no major injuries after week 1 so I will take it. I wanted that 2-0 badly but if we can go down to Jacks and win that game and get to 1-0-1 everything will be fine. It isn't 2-0 but still good. Sunday's game is huge and I will admit if we lose that we are in trouble.

The dropped passes came from a rookie and because of a new QB. Not coaching. Fumbles are a players fault not coaching. You guys hate Reich so much you will blame him for anything. You don’t think Reggie Wayne gives them confidence?

I like Frank. Was it Frank's fault that Pierce dropped a beautiful pass by Matt Ryan that would've put us up 10-0? No it wasn't. Was it Frank's fault that Blakenship missed a chip shot FG for the win? No. Some just love to nitpick everything he does for some reason, it is like listening to my mom when I was 12 years old telling me I didn't make my bed right or I didn't do the dishes right chuckling homer simpson GIF

Will be crazy if we lose and titans and Texans lose and Jags are on top. Lol. We are playing KC next week so we need to win against jags. I don’t like rod will probably still be our kicker. His confidence has to be shaky.

I was really thinking Irsay might cut him because Irsay has been on edge since we lost to Jacks last year. Maybe because it ended in a tie, Irsay didn't blow a gasket.

      2024 NFL Season -- Week #1 All Around the NFL game discussion

      Niners up 16-7 at the half. Jets allowing a lot of yards but holding them mostly to field goals.    Biggest takeaway? Rodgers was sacked by the bad man himself of last season and got back up. So that’s a win for the Jets fans lol…

      Attempted 2 point conversion

      You’re weird are you a Texans fan. Going for two points is a major risk reward. It failed regardless of all the reasons but it shouldn’t have been. Kick the extra point take the nearly sure point and move on and see how the game goes from there. Like I said, Houston just drove down the field. After that it was more than a missed point conversion. It was a major momentum shift. The team was deflated and the defense played like it after that.

      Attempted 2 point conversion

      you can argue this until you're blue in the face.  you're gonna get one of a few reactions.   a - we would've been tied at the end forcing them to score  b - hindsight is 20/20 c- coaches are very well informed of the analytics in today's NFL and are leaps and bounds more informed that posters on this board. d - shane is recognized as one of the brightest offensive minds in football, there are countless articles, and even the Texans GM stating this. for each brilliant play he draws up, sometimes they will not work.  e - the call was fine, but just didn't work out, stuff happens. f - being aggressive with more time remaining actually works in your benefit because if you don't achieve it you have more time in the game to adjust and attempt to recuperate.    I'm sure some other posters will have more reasons, but as you can see there are more than enough arguable premises to really make it a "who cares" kinda topic. You can split hairs all day on this, and still it's gonna come down to hindsight is 20/20 or shoulda coulda wouldas. We could run through that whole game and do this.

      When will these coaches realize that going for two points early is a bad idea. You have no idea how the game is going to go so just take the point and keep momentum. That’s what I’m saying. It’s just a stupid idea to go for that early in the game. I see it in the fourth quarter.
