Last night after every unsuccessful drive

Did anyone notice how upset Olsen was like after every 3 and out he would throw his hands up and basically be like WTF. I honestly think the team is tired of the play calling also. Hell looking at the replay on NFL game pass KB and Funch were open numerous times but DA didn't look that way. Not saying he's bad or can't check other reads. Sometimes I think Shula draws up plays that have only one or two options. I know it sounds asinine but hell Cam sometimes looks disgusted after plays that don't work and you will see KB or Olsen come back to the huddle and look like they are telling him "dude I was open".

since 2013 we always get to 3rd and short and fail on 3rd down , what made us so good last year was that we made those 3rd downs . shula has to go.people have caught onto his predictable play . not even in madden would i throw a bomb on 3rd and three . 

Doesn't help when tolbert keeps whiffing on his blocks on those 3rd and short runs..

Rivera is no coach just stands there with arms folded and shades on..Cam, Olsen, Norman, Luke, Davis, Harper were the coaches...Now that half of them have left and others banged up it was left to the coaches to do their job. Which they have been unsuccessful. It's just like any other job ...managers no nothing do nothing .. work is all on the team leaders...I know I have worked for some managers and wonder how in the hell did they land the job... they take all credit when things are good..and when things go bad they fire the team leader and place majority of the blame on the workers... This team is demoralized and tired of coming to Rivera aid..look he hasn't defended Cam on the hits, he let Norman walk, Hardy was tossed aside even tho some of the players wanted him to stay..You claim to be a players coach but I think the true qualities are starting to show..Just a user...

Why keep him, teddy Williams, and Remmers..it is too much to mask now..Tolbert should have been gone in 2014, teddy never should have been signed and Remmers should have been gone after superbowl..but u let bene go and he was just recovering from injury and playing out of position..but you keep true f-ups.. player evaluation is laughable..wanted to send a message get rid of your beloved tolbert.

You are right, it does sound assinine and anyone pieing this doesnt have a clue.  Any play has a route tree and various options on every play.  The quarterback is supposed to read the defense and pick teh receiver in single coverage or use his eyes for example to make the safety go one direction while he throws in the other direction.  I agree that both Cam and Anderson have done a poor job or hitting the open receiver and anticipating who is going to be open but that is on them not the playcalling. They watch film of the play during the game to make in game changes and watch film on the day after to see what they did right or wrong.  If they are still doing a poor job, who is to blame?

We need to hit the reset button.  Full hard drive wipe. Clean mf house.  Nippleshorts do your job and make some moves. Team is ready, fans are ready.  What  the  bloody  heck  do  we have to lose  ? New HC/OC/DC.  We have the personnel and cap space to succeed no matter who wears the headphones.  Sorry rant/

Been stated, but the teams have figured Shula out. He didn't change anything with his play calling. It's pretty much known what we are about to do. Last year Cam spread the ball around and this year its wait on KB or Greg. They're showing visible signs of frustration and that's never good. The coaches are so smug about it though.

    • You kinda gloss over this, but this is really at the crux of this whole argument....which Flacco are we talking here?  You bring up that he played with 3 different teams but ignore the fact that his performance varied quite a bit from team to team. 2024 Colts: 65.3% completion, 12 TDs, 7 INTs, 220.1 YPG, 7.1 Y/A, 90.5 rating 2025 Browns: 58.1% completion, 2 TDs, 6 INTs, 203.8 YPG, 5.1 Y/A, 60.3 rating 2025 Bengals: 63.4% completion, 12 TDs, 3 INTs, 290.6 YPG, 6.8 Y/A, 96.2 rating 2025 Flacco (Browns + Bengals): 61.1% completion, 14 TDs, 9 INTs, 252.0 YPG, 6.1 Y/A, 80.8 rating vs. 2025 Bryce: 62.7% completion, 14 TDs, 7 INTs, 196.2 YPG, 6.2 Y/A, 86.0 rating I bolded the comparison that I think objectively makes the most sense...just simply comparing the two QBs for the entire season.  Otherwise you'd be cherry-picking Flacco's time with the Bengals and ignoring his earlier stint with the Browns, which sounds an awful lot like people cherry-picking Bryce's stats in the second half of last season. So again, which Flacco?  Basically the only thing consistent with Flacco across each of these teams was his W/L records: 2-4, 1-3, and 1-4 respectively.  I'd say if we're comparing each version of him to Bryce this year: Colts Flacco > 2025 Bryce, Browns Flacco <<< 2025 Bryce, Bengals Flacco >> 2025 Bryce, and 2025 Flacco < 2025 Bryce - Flacco this year only beats out Bryce on YPG but in part because he throws significantly more passes (almost 60 YPG more than Bryce, despite a lower Y/A which is pretty telling) .  Flacco is maybe the most apt case study about how important a QB's circumstances are to his success.  He was easily a bottom 3 QB in Cleveland and arguably top 10-15 in Cincinnati...and we're talking about the same player from the same season.  All that happened was taking him from one team and plopping him onto another team; nothing inherently changed about him as a QB.  Funny enough I think that's all that one dude on here was trying to say when he made that long poorly-received post after having an epiphany working for PFF behind the scenes or w/e.  That it's largely short-sighted to just try to evaluate QBs in a vacuum when there are so many variables at play that ultimately decide whether a QB is successful or not.   I think Bryce has been mediocre at best this season and I'm ready to move on regardless of how he ends this season - I'm highly skeptical a strong end to the season will carry over into next year considering how last year ended and this year began.  I would certainly agree that he's a bottom-third QB this year.  I just don't understand you scoffing indignantly at anyone holding the opinion that Bryce has had a better season than Flacco...I can only assume it's recency bias.  Or maybe you know the stats don't support you, which is why you're conjuring up the god-forsaken arbitrary "eyeball test" which is the kinda thing people in here were saying about Fields for years, pinky promising that he really truly was a franchise QB despite his awful stats.  Perhaps it's called the eyeball test because I roll my eyes anytime I hear someone bring it up seriously as an argument.
    • CMC said he expected to play his career here.  He didn't think he would be traded.  Carolina decided they wanted to trade him.  He picked here he wanted to go.   But we dumped him.  For largely peanuts.   But we dumped DJ Moore and he never had a blood and guts game.   So it's never a guarantee. 
    • I have many people telling me CMC was blindsided and heartbroken by the trade, but that's not how I remember everything going down.  49ers are pretty wounded right now on defense so if our offense can sustain drives and score, that'd be the difference maker. Their offense? I'm not scared of CMC.
