Coach Staley Discussion - Fired

[Bolt4Knob]

He's an idiot and a pot stirer simply because HE thinks he's smart and important. He could go on ESPN and tell the world that I deserve to be a billionaire and I'd come up with 50 reasons why I shouldn't... That's the level of respect I have for him.

I have watched more ESPN shows the past couple weeks and even NFLN - and the shows are crap . They talk about the Cowboys every show it seems. Mike greenberg has the biggest woody for the Cowboys - the absolute biggest

But they are stupid and the analysis is more based on if one person says go left, the other says go right - jsut for debate

In no particular order but these are the people on ESPN and NFLN that really do not have good insight

Yeah well many teams lose after that bye week and resting players as well. And those that don't rest their players keep moving along. May get rested and then get hurt in the playoffs. Mahomes got concussed and they lost.

.

Ask any player in the NFL and they will tell you a week of rest this late in the season is the holy grail.

That is precisely why the NFL awards the top team in each conference with a BYE WEEK.

You really think coaches and players of the Chiefs are sitting around this weekend wishing they were playing?

it’s not that complicated.

I don't care what they're wishing. I'm just saying it doesn't always work out. It's been proven. The teams that gets the bye or the team that rests their players the week before,.... Don't always win.

See it all the time.

How does it work for success not to have Mike Williams on Saturday?

Could be better, could be Worse. 1st game vs them, No KA, Linsley, Parham. Oline sucked. 2 LB's sucked.
Now: No MW, BUT we have Linsely, Parham, Oline is better/gelled. 2 LB's are better
STILL a plus over last time if we look at overall picture.

Great to have MW, but Linsely back+Parham+Joshua Palmer = One MW

Bonus: Alohi Gillman is playing better than NAS. It was NAS last time who started. Perhaps they can start Gillman who seems to gell well with the "D"

"I stand behind what we did in that football game." Brandon Staley on playing his starters last weekend.

Stubborn idiot. What do you expect with Spanos running the ship.

I think he made a mistake - but what is he going to say
Staley is not afraid of his convictions

I've seen lots of guys like Staley. I call them;

Ready - Fire - Aim

Its one thing to have a program in place. Its one thing like last year to go on 4th down - a lot - to establish a culture. Though the Raider one - that still was kind of stupid
But at times, I think you also have to say "hey that was a learning lesson for me"

And I understand you cannot rest everybody - but the inactive list was bad to begin with (two QBs and 4 WRs)
and truly the Bengals were really never going to lose that game
plus the offense did so much on its first three drives - he was careless and arrogant

Staleys arrogance is an issue for me

Yup it is getting on my nerves too. He does some good things but he also makes unforced errors and stupid mistakes. That is why so many NFL observers say these unnessessary mistakes are holding back Justin herbert and costing this team. A better more experienced coach would have had the Chargers in the playoffs LAST season.

And the AFC West might have 2 SB winning coaches that will coach circles around him next year. Payton interviewing in Denver ina few days and he said he knows how to fix Russell Wilson.

The first two guys are seasoned NFL vets - they don't say nice things all the time about the Chargers?
