I know their defense hasn't only been bad this week but they did not have two of those guys tonight. Tonight they were down their best DL (done for the year), their best LB, their best CB and their best S. All of the former all pros. You can't just "next man up" your way out of that. (Plus their LT and their QB, two more 1st rounders and former all pros).

That ownership is not stupid. This is on injuries.

And also while normally I say you decide if your guy is the guy and if he is not you fire him, if he is you keep him - never make decisions based on who might be next..... I have a real struggle putting together a shortlist of 5 or 6 guys I wanna interview for a Head Coach job next January if I'm a struggling franchise. I think Stefanski can coach and keeping him means keeping an elite DC. The one black mark against him is he was the one pushing them to move on from Baker. That looks a really bad call in hindsight.

Miami won't fire McDonald. I'm sure of that much.

Bryce Young trying to take time outs with none left lol.

We called sneaks.

Two things I will say for sure: 1. He isn't as good as Sean McVay; but 2. If he had called the 4th down run McVay did on TNF we would have people here calling for his immediate firing.

Where’s the juice at the position of Wide Receiver?
GunnerBill replied to zow2's topic in The Stadium Wall
It was fractionally late and Keon did a nice job on that rep, no doubt. He had separation and room to make the catch. But it was also a great play by the rookie safety. Sometimes you just have to tip your cap and say the other guys get paid too. -
Maybe. Obviously OCs are dependent on talent at Quarterback, that's for sure. But as long as you give Brady a guy who can play he'd churn out results that are commensurate.

Dorsey had success for about 20 games. Then it fell off a cliff very quickly. Brady is a better play designer and a better play caller for the NFL in 2025.

The Ray Davis-backup running back discussion
GunnerBill replied to TBBills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
I just don't think Davis has the vision that Cook has. I know not everyone on this board agrees but it is to me the #1 attribute for a running back in the NFL. James Cook has elite vision. Jonathan Taylor has elite vision. Saquon Barkley has elite vision. Derrick Henry a bit less so but he is something of a unicorn anyway. In a world where offensive linemen are generally lighter and more mobile than in the past you don't get as many pure roadgrading offensive lines that just blow people off the ball so running backs who see gaps as soon as they appear and can scamper through them before they close up again are increasingly valuable. I didn't love Davis's vision in college and I think he has missed too many gaps in the NFL too. Do I accept it is hard to get to the speed of how quickly you need to recognise gaps before they close if you are getting fewer than 5 touches a game? Sure. But I don't think it is a strength to start with.
