Coach Staley Discussion - Fired

[Xenos]

From what I have seen - really good player. I thought Brock Bowers was better - but he is not draft eligible. I can see Telesco salivating over that guy already.

Notre Dame guy too lol

Oh I get what Staley is trying to say, and I do appreciate he is one coach who will discuss schematics and give more info in pressers than most NFL coaches.

The talk js gets a little tiring when we contunually watch him and his staff get outcoached in the games though. Cant remember a staff more brutal with in game adjustments both making them and coping with other teams adjustments. We saw it as recently as last game. And it wasnt just Lombardi's offence. Staley's defence could not cope with the adjustments that Pederson made at half time.

Sounds like it’s just better for Staley to say as little as possible. Especially with regards to recovery. He’s been too quick and honest about things when medical prognosis can change.

Also with regards to the second half, K9 taking out Davis really sucked.

I wouldn't be hanging my hat on criticizing the substance or details about what Staley says at the immediate season end presser.

It's a long ways to September and what happens between now and then, to heal up and build upon what happened last off season is what matters.

Every year, keeping up and getting ahead with the trends in the three phases is front and center.

Be forward thinking rather than have perfect answers right now.

BREAKING NEWS AT 11! Coach speaks coach-speak at a news conference.

Anyone ever watch a Belichick news conference? Just wondering. Want to see him break out his Madden White Board? Coaches always talk in pablum and cliche.

this year was better than last, just not nearly as good as we expected. He’s got another year, I’ll rally and pull for him.

Another article about Staley that many here could have written:

spot on quote in the article from Plaschke"

" It would be easy to be excited with him, if one thought he was willing to make the changes that would elevate his coaching to a championship level.
But over the last two seasons, every public hard look in the mirror seems to be accompanied by a stubbornness that inhibits the sort of self-examination that leads to growth."

A lot of Anthony Lynn in Staley.

Wade Phillips disagrees.


He owned everyone in the 3rd quarter.

I think it is more about the coaches (not the players) getting an extra few minutes to look at film / formations from the first half and come up with a plan.

with technology today, the coaches can also do a lot during the game.

however, if there was a dire change needed, i think the halftime is more about the coaches getting a chance to get together and taking time to discuss the problem. Staley's eyes are on the field every play - he does not have time to sit down with the other coaches.

then again, it seemed like the chargers' coaches never did shit at halftime (judging by the 3rd quarter results), so who knows.

I don’t know. It feels like he caved under media pressure and stopped being as aggressive on 4th down this year. In addition to the other things that Staley changed despite what Plaschke said.

Also fuck Plaschke!!!

It's the ability to adjust on the fly.

In my days,.....we never got together at halftime and went over a new game plan either. We did discuss what they were doing.....sometimes. That also happened during the game, as you see them with their tablets.

Sometimes it was a peptalk.

Depended on if we were winning or not....from my memory way back lol.

Before the game is when we had the game plan and then if it didn't work well, try something else.

As they both said, you don't really have time.

Crap - I should have just posted this article. It's all there.

Can you imagine Mike Tomlin answering questions in the manner Staley did? He'd cut his arm off before making statements like that. I suspect that, even with Herbert, Staley may find it more difficult than expected to get a seasoned, qualified OC to come here.

At least they have time for those orange slices.

His comment was interesting to me because of course they were at the NFL level.

I thought perhaps things where more .....safisticated, maybe..... than the levels I was at lol.

Not sure if that's the right word.
