Coaching Scared

since starting 6-1 in 2022. It's easy to coach like he did in year 1 with nothing to lose. Now he's worried about his job.

so some of the conservative plays he calls have no chance. i'm talking about running into the line of scrimmage.

into the end zone. He seems satisfied to throw the short ball & hope for YAC,which most times didn't materialize!

a massive improvement over never.

Where the WRs are actually in the end zone and it would help if pass plays were called where our best WR isn’t used as a blocker/decoy.

Was Tim McDonnell’s comment about asking what our identity is. But, we do have an identity. It’s playing to lose and not knowing and doing what it takes to be a winner. We have been killed now for a decade and a half of losing to our two chief rivals the Cowboys and Eagles.

And it’s top down. Mara, Schoen, Daboll just have no clue.

Just two weeks ago we had to go for it on every 4th down and couldn’t convert at all.

We lost the game because we couldn’t convert explosive plays and they did. It’s that simple. If this is what we are with this QB/Defense then we’re screwed.

3 head coaches
FIVE play callers

Maybe it’s the qb that is both scared and incapable of pushing the ball down the field.

It just worked for 8 games before everyone figured it out.

It’s a shame he’d rather roll Jones out and coach scared because there were come excellent play designs tonight.

But the longer he coaches scared with Jones the deeper he’s digging his own grave. The seasons over, forget trying to salvage it and try saving your job. If every game looks like Minnesota so be it.

He calls explosive plays that take risk, he just doesn’t have an QB that can execute. No defense in the league respects Jones to take the top off. If you don’t have to defend a team beyond 10-15 yards down field it kind of limits the playbook. Daboll is doing the best he possibly can with someone who is a shell of an NFL QB, pretty much trotting out a late career Chad Pennington and your expecting this coach to be a miracle worker.

I guarantee this offense looks better with Lock or Devito just like it did last year when they played. If the goal is to win games they need to move on from Jones now, if the goal is to tank for top draft pick in hopes they don’t win any more meaningless games like they did last year and miss out on top QB prospects you have to embrace Jones as the starter through the season. The guy won’t even surpass Dave Brown in wins here when he is done, but let’s give him another coach, another GM and another 5 years to figure it out. Haha.

he is going down with this ship by running DJ out there every game.

Red Zone or just outside of it,it's all about calling the right plays.4th and 3,in the Red Zone,you call a play with 2 or 3 WR's in the End Zone.If anything, you can get a penalty call on
a DB,or a TD,or the QB could run it in for a TD.
If anything,if you don't score,Dallas is on their 3 yd line..You make them punt,you get the ball around midfield,and go back down and try again.

Deserves its own thread. Does feel like coaching scared and I was furious we weren’t going for 6.

The actual play calls and scheme seems fairly aggressive, DJ just can’t pull off the long ball . . .

It has its own thread!!
