Now that HE has job security... Will he make any moves and get rid of anybody from his staff?

Does he have mercy on his staff, as JR did for him, or will he bring out the old axe!?

I'd really like to see Chud get the boot in favor of Norv Turner... But I could also see Ron running with what he's got!

I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall during that meeting...

So fellas, what say you? Does he axe anyone? Or does he go with what he's got?

I thought special teams play improved once Richard Rogers got comfortable in the role (took a few games) but for the final 4-5 games special teams looked a bit better. Would like to see what he can do with a full offseason as prep and more control of personnel.

Coaches on the bubble? Offensive ones - Chud, the running backs coach Settle and maybe Graves, the WR coach. Possibly Shula? With the Scott Turner and Norv Turner connection, I hope we replace Chud w/ Norv.

Keep Chud on the right track and get a real QB coach. Hire Weinke, Jim Zorn, George Whitfield...

Eh, Whitfield and Weinke make a shitload of money on providing private lessons, doubt they'd be willing to give it up to be a full-time coach.

This just made me think of Hadooki Nakamorons fake punt fail.

Not every play works every time. In retrospect, yeah - pretty dumb. To be honest, I sure as heck did not see that coming. Very uncharacteristic of us - but even so - special teams did improve slightly once Rodgers took over full time. Def. have to do something about Adams and our return situation, but we covered pretty well and made great tackles.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
