I know we give this coaching staff a lot of flak, but, we can all agree..

.. that what they did yesterday, was the exact reason some of us support them.

 

Yes they made terrible decision, yes they TRIED, because lets not forget, the previous regime did NOT try. At least this regime tried to find other avenues and ways, but coming back full circle with Cam. What they accomplished from Thursday to Friday's rehearsal practice. Joe Brady showed us that not only he is a football Genius, but the man has common sense. Something we can all say is just as valuable as having a cerebral offensive mind. 

 

I just hope they ease Cam in. I know a lot of people will say "you don't pay cam to be the back up, you don't pay him 10 mill...' Yada yada. please don't bring money into this. .It doesn't matter how much he is getting paid, the man was eating cereal just last week, had literally a day and a half to prepare and executed masterfully. Joe Brady, whatever he did, whether he made a micro playbook for him or took existing plays and adapted them to Cam, did a wonderful job in short time span. 

 

Right now, they need to use more common sense. Rivera knows Cam, he's got 10 years worth of Intel on him... pump the breaks on the Cam taking over full time right now.. I honestly believe the correct call would be to, again make some plays for Cam and have PJ move that ball. Whether we like it or not Having both QB's out there gives us the better chance at winning. Egos are aside here, one goal, one mind, Just fight, and Win. Whatever it takes. The playoffs started for us yesterday.

I still believe in Rhule, mainly because he seems very adaptable, acknowledges mistakes and moves on fairly quickly from them, and that's a breath of fresh air compared to the stubbornness from a lot of coaches. He and Fitts have revamped the roster and our defense and skill positions on offense look great. If they get the QB and OLine situation fixed, look out, because what they've done with the other 80% of the roster has been great. 

I wouldn't want to be judged based on one and a half years into a rebuild, so I extend him that leverage as far as my judgement goes.

I get the don’t start CAM NeWTon train but who do we start then?  PJ walker or Barkley is not the answer. I get If we have a young prospect or a proven veteran on the team but we don’t.  Other than CAm the answer this year may not be on the roster.  Trust me if you play In this league long enough every team defense will know your weaknesses that’s what tapes are for. I see Pj walker playing 65% and cam playing 35% of the snaps next week

You're over-thinking the Rivera angle.

The questions you should be asking are these:  "Is there anything PJ Walker can do that Cam cannot?" and "Is there anything PJ Walker does better than Cam?"  If you answer "No" to both those questions, Cam starts.  Period.

IF we start Cam, it should have nothing to do with Ron Rivera being on the other sideline.  Lest we forget, most of what Ron knows about Cam is based on Mike Shula's "offense".  This is a Joe Brady offense.  It is up to Joe Brady to call a game that works to break those trends that Rivera may or may not know or expect.

I have never seen a front office with this much business agility. I am 100% in support of it. It is clear why Tepper hired Rhule. Rhule understands the fail fast fail often model. Which is how you get to success quicker. 

It's amazing to see this in action in a professional sport.

The coaching staff knows football I think it was obvious from the start of the year with how well the defense played.

What they struggle with is personnel and player decisions.

Rhule should have never been given control of the team. That poo never works out and it nearly got his ass canned.

Luckily Tepper stepped in and made an executive decision.

It’s cliche but if everyone does their job then this team should be fine.

Let Tepper be the owner, Fit be the GM, Rhule be the coach, and the players play.

Lol I wouldn't say brady is a genius but he definitely gave me some optimism in his coaching abilities after yesterday's win

This is what I've been saying the whole time. They are not stuck in their ways like Rivera and continue with their failed plan no matter what. They make changes when needed and at least try to fix issues. Although, I can't agree with Brady as a genius. His play calling is still suspect.

You just got back together after a two year hiatus and a bad, bad break up where you went out and found not one, but two new folks. 

Maybe we should have more than a first reunion date before we set a wedding date for this bunch. Let's let it marinate a bit and see where it goes.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
