That Detroit game is starting to look like our biggest test left

As long as the Bucs lose to the Bengals, then we can lose 1 game that isn't the Bucs and still win the division (assuming the Falcons don't win out).

The good news is Goff has been pretty awful on the road. If we were @Detroit, I would be very worried

Keeping Wilks as head coach or not is a debate worth having. Keeping McDooDoo in any capacity on this team is not - honestly, this bum should have been shown the door when we canned Fatt Fhule.

It's a shame the players had to spend all summer learning his ridiculous textbook of plays just to run the ball 40 times a game because his RPO's and quick outs were a disaster. Usually it's tough to ditch your OC mid season but I don't think it would have set us back that far considering how we're looking. Wilks is basically thinking of what the opposing defense doesn't want us to do on offense and going with that game plan lol.

They just said on TV we control our own destiny to win the South.

If we can beat Pittsburgh, TB loses to Cinci, and if the Saints beat the Falcons, we will be in first with a 1 game tie breaker over the Bucs and 2 games over the Saints and Falcons

Yup.

If we keep Wilks because we made it to the playoffs, then Wilks will have to be brave enough to fire the OC who helped him win the job without knowing who will replace him.

If we win out Wilks should get the job. But if we win out while basically minimizing the QB position McAdoo has to go. I just don't know if Wilks would have the guts to make that call.

 

If he gets us to 9-8 he has a good shot. Cause that's a turnaround for damn sure with the same players. Now the schedule isn't noteworthy other than the Bengals who blew us out. 

Considering he has never had the chance hard to know. He only got the zona job with Josh Rosen for 1 year and no year 2. Then Mayfield, Sam, PJ, and mcdodo here and a hole record from fhule. So if he gets the job, let's hope he can make a move there and not be stuck with poo again. He had our old friend Mike McCoy as OC to start (who was fired mid season in Denver before linking with wilks in zona, only to fired mid season again), another poo OC.

Rather have kept Joe Brady over mcdodo. Joe might get there 1 day cause his opening scripted drives were fine.

Yeah, no matter if we like it or not, it's trending a certain way. I'm still highly skeptical of the way the offense is being run. Personally, I can't help but feel that ultimately we'll end up in a similar place within three years if Wilks is chosen, but I'll hope that I'm wrong and hope for the best. 

The offense is literally the oline. They are just fuging straight up mauling opposing teams. You can actually go pretty damn far with that even without a QB.

As I’ve drilled into the ground on this site, top oline is #2 commonality between super bowl and championship teams for the last 20 years. #1 being defense and #3 being an elite QB.

With that in mind, it’s really dumbfounding this franchise has neglected it as much as it has.

    • Winning culture trumps ALL.    Here’s my way to long take:  Last season this team started out breaking the sports books and being the lead pipe lock of the week. They finished by being a tough out for both SB teams.  I don’t think they’ll pick up right where they left off, but for the first time in years they’re on the legitimate upswing. Honest to God NFL talent has been infused.  Offense is already going to be good for 2-3 more 3rd down conversions (I don’t think anyone will argue that) a game over last year so I’ll go (very optimistically) 5-6 more points better than last year’s team. ADDED: A legit backup RB and a money WR who catches everything, along with 2 promising rooks. No significant losses (sorry Miles). KEYS: Can Dave bob and weave play calling if things aren’t working? Does protection continue to hold for Bryce. Did this team pick up dudes who know how to find the end zone or will the struggle of 3rd and goal continue.  Defense. If they can force even 2 (hopefully 3) more stops a game on third down (not asking a lot, hopefully more), that’s good for -4 (optimistic) points for opposing teams.  ADDED: legit run stuffers. Legit (appearing) edge guys. LOST: Clowney. Question: With legit 3-4 talent can Evero finally show what we have been VERY patiently waiting on? To me, EVERYTHING on defense hinges on Evero. Everything. Every position group was upgraded (still not good enough, but certainly improved).  Losing Brown early and Luvu… completely and utterly devastated the run defense. Luvu put up one of the best seasons at LB this team has ever seen. His under appreciation by some fans was criminal. He alone was our 3 down stop machine. Brown was pretty much it up front. Those 2 held RBs in check long enough for safety help to arrive.  Coaching: Halftime adjustments and no prevent defense. In a nutshell, that’s pretty much it. No cutesy offense to show off WRs/Bryce when it’s not working. Use your sledgehammers, Dave.  There is finally veteran leadership and legit NFL talent. It’s going in the right direction (I couldn’t have been more wrong last offseason) to build a winning culture, but teams have to learn how to win, especially the games where nothing is going right (this team has NEVER been able to do that). They will still lose more close games than they win, and that alone is where it all hinges.     
    • With his current level of play I'm quite content to not activate his 5th year option and let him walk away for free after year 4. 
    • Self described anti-Bryce dude wants us to fail to take a major step forward     Yeah that lines up.
