IT ALL BOILS DOWN TO SHULA


Recommended Posts

The defense will do their part in keeping us in the game.  I have no doubt about it.  They might even score a TD or set us up for a quick score. 

 

I think the players will be motivated and focused and execute the plays called.

 

Shula has 17 weeks of film and one of those was a head to head match up.  Shula has to have a good game plan from the opening whistle.   There shouldn't be any excuse for a solid game plan.

 

We have the players, we have the defense.   Shula needs to be his "A" GAME on Sunday.

This game boils down to a hell of a lot more than just Shula. Our Run D has been porous the last couple weeks- Gore is coming to town. Last time we didn't face David much or Crabtree at all. Aldon Smith was in a limited role, Cam's passes were off, OL couldn't create lanes; O only scored 10.

It comes down to winning the one on one battles, the execution and like my title says it comes down to controlling the LOS.

As I said in the opening post.  I believe the defense will show up and I hope execution will be good.  Our defense isn't so much a worry for me as our offense is.

 

We have squeaked wins against NYJ, NO and Atl with all three games won by the defense.  Our offense has looked stagnant for long stretches in the game. 

 

With every defense there is a way to attack it.  I don't think Shula does a good enough job at finding those weaknesses a defense has.   Green Bay notched 20 points against SF in the second coldest game in history or something like that.

idk how this is on shula, as long as the play calling isn't like at the end of the falcons game we should be find as long as guys get there job done.

 

its out of our hands we have to trust our guys know how important this game is and that they will be prepare for it, and they have proven time after time they have been ready.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
