With this coaching staff...how many game would have we won last year?

Coaches don't win games for you. They can factor in to it, sure, but it's about the players. I know you blame Fox a lot for last season, LP, but you need to wake up and smell the coffee. Jimmy and Matt were awful last season and it wouldn't have mattered who was calling the shots or coaching them.

Here's a poster who has no idea what he's talking about

probably 4 or 5. there was going to be struggles no matter what, just too many spots populated by learning, growing players. maybe if moore had stayed healthy he could have gotten it together but it probably wouldn't have meant more than 6 or so, IMO.

fwiw, jonathan stewart just tweeted about meeting rivera. good stuff.

Just met coach rivera at the galleria mall in Dallas feelin real #pumped

it's a mix. I don't think Fox caused the injuries that really hurt the team, but I think you can blame the coaching staff for some of the boneheaded play design that was hurting the team early on in the running game and throughout in the passing game, and once Moore went down, we had to start someone who just wasn't ready to be a starter. At the same time the guys never quit and I do think they fought as hard as they could through the season.

I think ultimately we would have gotten maybe another 2 to 4 wins, but I think that the general atmosphere around the team would have been MUCH more positive because it was a building up year.

On the other hand, if we only win 2-4 games next year, people are not going to be very happy I think.

With the coaching staff we have now, I'd say we win 5-7 game's. Fox just did'nt seem to care anymore. I saw in several interview's with Fox and he just seemed to be sleepwalking. He knew he was done here, it was easy for me to see a change in his attitude and how the team responded as well.

If davidson had vacated the booth, his half diet pepsi on it's own probably could have called better plays for us. So with chud I think we could have won quite a few more. I'm so looking forward to not seeing someone clap during a fumble or facepalm during an interception. Coaching had a lot to do with our struggles, especially combining that with our lack of experience...

If you guys haven't checked out cyberjag's blogs on how our coaching changes could affect our offense and defense, do yourselves a favor and check that out!!!

I doubt it would have been much different. Great players make coaches look good far more often than coaches make players look good.

Just look at the two Super Bowl teams. Yeah, they have pretty good coaches, but they are both loaded with talent on both sides of the ball.

Not true at all. Both team's have very iffy O Lines and no one's RB's are scaring anybody (Mendenhall is good but not elite). Steelers WR Corp is average.

The only parts of these teams that are LOADED with talent are GB's WR's, Pittsburgh's D. Also both starting QB's are elite.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
