Sam Mills III and game management


Sam Mills Fan

Recommended Posts

I'm not sure it was worse but it wasn't better than without that position and what I assume is just a title. The whole thing was sloppy bordering on dysfunctional. We play on Thursday so we get another chance to improve and then a long week to hopefully get our crap together if that isn't an improvement.

How would you grade Sam Mills III's debut as the new guru of game management, challenge flags, and timeouts?

I thought the challenge play was spot on. 

We burned timeouts on things that were out of his control.  Radio issue.  We burned a timeout.  Poor coaching not having them ready to roll without the radio working the next play taking a penalty.   Think we burned another one on ST because of personel. 

Coaching and discipline were bad.  Wouldn't really say game management in regards to Mills was an issue though.

There was a lot of audible crowd discontent with time management yesterday. Tech issues or not, fans are tired of it. That does not go unnoticed. 

I just started laughing when we used our second timeout so early in the second half. And, sure enough, if we had had all 3 timeouts when the Rams recovered the onside kick, we could have forced them to give it back to us.

The staff & team still do not grasp the importance of these things. Maybe  a system of stiff fines is in order. Not just game day, but at all times. Mental mistakes in practice, inability to answer questions about personnel required in specific play packages and so on. The hurt is not sufficient to remedy this at present.

I guess. They should have coached cam on what to do when his headset isn't working

I was thinking this the entire time. Damn, it’s his ninth season! He should be able to come up with something half intelligent based on what he’d seen so far.

    • agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it. 
    • I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.
    • I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
