Do you know a team that runs the football plays good D and works hard for their coach

I do.... they are known as the San Francisco 49ers and after many years of mediocrity they have finally broken out. They are coached by one of the best defensive players to ever play the game who came in and dismantled any prima donas on the team (see the Vernon Davis of two years ago and this years version). A team that runs the ball, plays physical D and wins out the grinders so far. A team that is doing all this without their top 10 pick this year because of not buckling in and handing this immature baby money that he is not slated for. A team that will only get better next year with a two first rounders (one of them being a top 10 pick) next year.

either way I am thoroughly impressed with the 49ers

I am too, but I temper that feeling a little bit.

If you don't get results, the "intense, in-your-face" act can have a short shelf-life. You can only give so many Knute Rockne speeches before the players eventually start thinking "I've seen this movie already."

For every Bill Cowher, there's a Ray Rhodes. At this point, Singletary could still turn out to be either one. I'm leaning positive, but the other is still possible.

Looking at the clip, on first glance it seems Singletary didn't put enough guys back into coverage to protect against the Hail Mary. Coaches normally have a boatload of guys back to knock the pass down. I saw only two in the vicinity of the receiver.

Will have to see the clip again to be sure, but if it's so Singletary and his DC need to take some blame for this loss.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
