You can't get hurt jumping on that bandwagon, Z. It's a collection of soft pasty people that will catch you, hug you, and love you no matter what... until they see that hat you're wearing (MAGA). At that point you're going to get a giant blast of estrogen spray to the face.Quote:

We were that stupid as a defensive coaching staff that Willis sorted out the mess in one week?Quote:

It's the fact that it was never rocket science... that irritates me.
I do hope we improved on defense. Make no mistake. Our offense is potentially too good to be compromised by a terrible defense. But to hand that potential defensive unit improvement to Willis... that soon... is a little bothersome.
I think Buckley's article this morning said it best....(stealing from Jim Mora) we think we know but we do not. I tend to think we just ran into a favorable matchup, but I know as little as everyone else on this site.Quote:

....macro/micro......so much goes into just the singular analysis of grading a player to see just how well they are playing compared to what perfection could do.....take a receiver and grading his performance.......some things are only gotten from post game questioning (what was the play and why we are running it, eye projection,etc).....some things are shown on the video like alignment, stance, defense read, realignment, release, angle, speed, distance to fake, cut, distance after cut,etc etc etc!!! No statues are erected to critics but, even if he finds a few flaws, an objective look see by a knowing eye maybe along with some buddies of the profession can be literally game changers!!!Quote:
