We have a proven DC on the staff with Todd Wash. If we parted with Evero, I can think of a few guys from teams with fired HCs that would be solid.. Jeff Ulbrich (Atlanta), Patrick Graham (Las Vegas), Jim Schwartz (Cleveland) Jonathan Gannon could go back to a DC if he’s let go in Arizona or Morris himself could come here if Atlanta cuts him loose.

The website has him at 204. It was hilarious today when they asked Dave and he was like “well Bryce is 190 physics isn’t on his side” I laughed my ass off. I’ve joked on here before but I swear I read in training camp somewhere that Mitchell Evans or Coker was the emergency QB on game day. I really don’t think I imagined it. Maybe that is what he referred to they were “working on” today. Im pretty damn sure it was Evans though.

Gross

If I had a multi-billion dollar team, I would have weekly meetings too. Y'all would hate my ass. But he can still have meetings and just exclude himself from some of the decision making. If you hired Rhule and Fitterer and realized how fuged you were halfway through, I bet you would be micromanaging poo too.

Dude Tepper hasn’t been around like the last two years. You’re brining up stuff from half a decade ago lol New owner hires two guys that sound like they know what they are doing (Rhule/Fitterer) they do significant damage to the team and he’s trusting real football guys (Morgan/Tillis) to fix it, and you expect it to be done already.

No, we shouldn’t bring him back.

Would probably get Canales fired if he didn’t match win total from this year. Say we finish with 8 this year and 5 next year? Could keep him one more but seat would be hot as living hell.

We do well against better teams for whatever reason. Will also have the time zone thing on our side since we play at 1pm and might be a personal game for Dave. Who knows really.

Yes and yes. Basically A) Sweep the Bucs or B) Beat the Bucs, Beat the Seahawks, Bucs lose to Miami.

This season was still a success in big picture for terms of the rebuild but yes it’s frustrating because the self inflicted stuff is responsible for 1-3 losses.

Partially. Part of it is Canales. I think if there was a McCaffrey, Smith, Olsen, Williams, etc it would change the offense. Bryce is a game manager, not game changer that’s established, but who can make a big play? Nobody. I have yet to see a wideout except maybe once break a tackle and take it to the house. Outside of Miami, I can’t think of a long run that flipped the field.

The team has a core group of guys now, a solid nucleus to build around. It’s time to find the guys that can take over a game. The type that can flip the field instantly or make the offense gameplan around them. (Luke, Smitty, Peppers) type. Ice cream is in the bowl, need the syrup and sprinkles

It’s why every game is so close or a blowout. Every play is measured so much to not be a negative play. Evero’s defense is based on bending not breaking so they aren’t exploited for a massive play. Why? No bigtime edge rusher or ball hawk. The offense is the same way, take 10-15 plays to work up the field. Why? Nobody to make the huge 50 yard run after catch or RB to break a tackle and juke half the defense. Or none of these players to earn attention from the defense and free up other guys. Dan needs to target people that can do this.

Was on the 35 so would have been 52 yarder

Somebody’s gotta do the lords work

They are moving too fast to be either of us

Yeah or hope they lose to Miami. Even if we beat Seattle when they beat Miami it don’t matter. Bucs can’t get 2 more wins or we’re screwed.

Technically, it can’t be the last two because if Tampa beat us and Miami it’s over. (Even if we beat Seattle week 17) It’s more like Tampa can’t get to 2 wins or we’re screwed. Tiebreakers and all. If they beat us and Miami it’s over. They only need to win 2/3.

Big players make big plays in big games. We have good players and solid players but we don’t have game changers no matter how much some of you want them to be. We don’t have a Steve Smith, DeAngelo Williams, Jonathan Stewart, Julius Peppers, Luke Kuechly, or Cam Newton. Those guys would take a slant to the house, strip/sack TD, pick 6, bust a 75 yard run, etc in big games and change them. We don’t have one. We don’t have anyone who can change a game. I think we have a good core group of guys but we don’t have difference makers. I think if Dan can mix this offseason between finding those guys and just building more depth it will make a difference.

Our chances fell to 24% but would have been 62% had we won today. Ultimately it’s a race to 2 wins between us and Tampa. I’ll keep it simple: -If we win next week AND beat Seattle it’s over if they lose to Miami. -If we win next week and beat Seattle and the Bucs win it comes down to Week 18. -If we win and both lose to Miami/Seattle it comes down to Week 18. -If they win this week and we lose to Seattle and they beat Miami, it’s over they win. -If they win this week and we beat Seattle and they beat Miami, they still clinch based off of tiebreakers of similar opponents. -If they win this week and we both lose to Miami/Seattle it comes down to Week 18. So basically whoever wins 2 of next 3 games and it doesn’t have to be each other but it’s the most obvious path.

They aren’t part of the story. We will look back in 3-4 weeks and say oh, that’s why that or this game went that or this way. Just watch. Que the feel good and inspirational storylines

Going to be exhausted from watching all that film later

What at least 1 reporter needs to ask DC: ”Did Evero file for any special disabilities when he was hired? Perhaps he is afflicted by mental retardation”?

I think we refocus and win next week but find a way to lose week 18. The NFL favors most exciting outcomes, no way they would let us win today and seal it next week.
