He took the pedal off the gas at exactly the wrong time during the drive. Why in the holy fvck would you call to weak-ass runs and not give an earnest attempt to move chains for first downs? I mean, you saw it didn't work one time, and then you call another one. That's just weak. The season is on the line, well-above the two minute warning, and he's calling plays like we're playing for a game-winning field goal. Weakness eptiomized! It's not fitting of a first-class head coach in the NFL.

What I disagree with is running Rico. There were actually holes there and I think Chuba has a couple big gains there.

Canales has his flaws but overall all things considered he’s done more good than bad and I could see him continuing to improve and being a long term answer here. Bryce and Evero (both who Tepper made him keep) are hamstringing him though.

What he's done for the locker room culture is incalculable and will have an impact on the franchise for years to come, and I thank him so much and give him full credit for that.

But I still think he's beyond terrible as a game planning and play calling coach, and if you suck at both of those, you really shouldn't be an NFL HC.  He's not a Dan Campbell, there are very few HC's who can be successful as rah rah guys, I don't think Canales can be one.

People make me laugh. If we had thrown the ball again when we were in FG range, we are a tipped ball or miscommunication away from having a chance to win.

Jesus we are one win away from the playoffs, a solid year ahead of schedule easily in this rebuild, and Canales deserves a big part of the credit. 
 

Hindsight you can nitpick any play call or possession.

I don’t agree with every call he makes of course but good lord this ain’t Madden.

Ask Baker how that can go.

Kind of like the Bucs did. Their last pass cost them the game.

      Carolina Way is gone, it went out the window with the Belichick hiring. They'll hire the best coach they can, ignoring everything else if possible.    Athletic reports that the school's top two targets are Tommy Lloyd and Billy Donovan. They don't care the buyout for a coach either, they and the boosters are willing to spend and will be going outside of the coaching family tree 100%.

      I don't think it's a homer though when I really feel this team can beat anyone.  The points that can be scored in bunches when the big three are on has high potential.  Moose has effort for days and IMO is the heart of the team.  And didn't see Miles becoming the team "vet" in the starting lineup just roleplaying lol.   We have to limit the turnovers though (Brandon Miller I'm looking at you bud, you are a bad ball handler) and some little things.   Colby off the bench is a cheat code and him and Kaulk have a nice little game going with the picks.    Sion playing every game and just getting better each game.  He has grit.  Grant and Green also grit.  We need replace Tillman with PJ Hall though.  Tillman looks like someone that shouldn't be on an NBA court, or at least with this team, he's just too slow for this tempo.   Even McNeely looked decent tonight and can drive.   If Kaulk and Moose could even be like 30% 3pt shooters man....
