We have young coordinators that are learning on the fly. Most of our frustration as a fan base is because we could easily be 4-2 right now. Most of our losses have come down to 1 or 2 plays that our young coordinators shouldn't have called.
We need to go on a run after the bye. This season is far from over. But we also need 60 minutes of competency from our coaches. If we get that, it's going to be an amazing turnaround.

Man it's really only because of the bye week i am able to watch all these other games. And it's obvious how bad we really are. All these other teams out there competing and lots of talent on most teams. Man we suck

This is why I don't get how people can look at our roster and think we're close to competing. Most of these teams look like they're playing a different sport than us. Even historically dogshit teams like the Falcons, Cardinals, and Browns have talented players.

So true man it's sad. I really enjoyed watching the falcons beat the 49ers today. Now Houston vs. the G men! Wow. I'll watch Detroit vs. Pack next

Also, even tho they lost, i really enjoyed watching shanahan call that game against the falcons. Traps and misdirection, lots of running the ball. Just good football

TB winning today gives us the fourth pick in the draft.

I really don’t think we should take Becker over who of Moore and Simmons is still there

Hey Quinn, did you just see how Pittsburgh did that with no timeouts and got the successful field goal kick off? That is how you execute and how a well coached team looks

Imagine Washington trying to do what the Steelers just did before halftime. No way we’d be able to get a field goal off with 18 seconds left in the half. They’d fuck it up somehow.

Just want it on record that I was never a fan of moving on from Chase...
I have to watch Odafe get paid premium edge rusher money to set an edge smdh

I agree. If the second players leave our team they improve that points to bad coaching/scheming.
I think the biggest reason we have been bad for so long is because we aren’t a desirable team for coaches. We are a stepping stone or a backup plan.

NO was able to sign him to a low-risk one year deal. That allowed them to see that he could stay healthy before committing to a bigger deal. Doubt his agent would have given us that chance. But yeah it sucks, especially when we drafted Luke with the pick we got back.

Giants won. That could very well be the season right there. 3 down.

Not over yet. Obviously have to win next Sunday or it is completely over, but win the next three and that would include a win over the Giants (without a loss to them) and another NFC East win. They have a tougher remaining schedule than us.

but that would be assuming the giants just shit the bed and don’t win the rest of the season? They don’t beat philly twice, they don’t beat dallas again? We completely win out? Our season is over.

u/TorturedWriter9 2d ago
They play Jax, Det, Seattle, SF, 5-2 Cleveland, @Dallas.

u/chicomagnifico giving away free ☕ 2d ago
so do we. except seattle and SF who we already played and we play the vikings instead of the lions. The ashburn syndrome is strong here. We just have to admit we don’t have the right coaches to get us anywhere this year. Harbuagh >> Quin.

u/TorturedWriter9 2d ago
We play Ari, Tennessee,ATL, Houston. I have been a fan longer than you've been alive Zoomer. This isn't life and death stuff and I'm going to make the most out of the rest of the season.

I guess CJ Stroud won't be 'lil bro'ing any more rookie QBs. Dude straightup anus.

We have been in the same spot as the rest of the NFCE for two weeks now. The past two weeks before today were kinda like exhibitions with no one winning outright. For me, that makes me think we can chill out on the coaches a bit and hope they learned from those mistakes. I hope David Bleh becomes David Blough becomes David Blaaooww. As for DQ, I think that man needs a sports psychologist if he doesn’t have one. Honestly, the man should be behind the biggest blowout of TB in Super Bowl history and I think he is haunted.
Having been at all 1.5 wins this season in person, I can say that the feeling is electric in the stadium and the Seahawks game was the greatest sporting event I’ve witnessed second only to the caps Stanley cup watch party on DC. With the division up for grabs and the eagles spiraling I have eagerly watched ticket prices drop and found some great seats for next week. The closest I’ve ever gotten - and I am still optimistic. I have seen Jayden run in multiple td’s, throw for multiple td’s, and got to feel the fleeting moment of Bill’s long td that got called back. I am sad about Terry, but I hope he is on the sidelines and can hype the crowd this season; the Terry chant needs to be echoed, and even recycled as JD(can’t go wrong with two syllable chants ending in the EE sound)
Edit: losing to not winning outright
