If wins don’t soon follow Reich will 100% be fired at seasons end.

The next 5 games aside from Dallas are EXTREMELY winnable. If we don't win 3 out of the 5 it wouldn't surprise me to see Tepper fire him midseason.

6 games too late, some of us were calling for it in preseason

And were told a bunch of lies like we wanted to be vanilla because we think we can win the division with our first two games are NO/Atl and you guys just can’t see what they are trying to work on so the poor play calls are exactly what we were trying to do. I wonder where that @Gerry Greenfella went off to as we got to 0-6.

Also, I really hope we do see something. I’m worried that it’s still going to be the Theilen show.

Did 'somebody' hold a gun to his head or did he have an epiphany?

Either way thank you who ever forced his hand.

Depends on if Tepper is the one you hate the most or not.

If Tepper is the devil, it was Frank’s epiphany that Brown will be better for the team than Tepper telling Frank what plays to call.

If Tepper isn’t the devil, it was during one of the meetings with Frank where Tepper asked him why he hadn’t handed over play calling to Brown and Frank had no answer except maybe it will be better.

A week or two ago I said it's likely that we'd be 0-6, Reich would hand over playcalling, and then anything less than 5 wins following the bye would mean the entire operation gets axed. I still believe that. Aside from Cowboys and at Jacksonville, every game on the schedule is winnable. Obviously they're not going to go 9-2, but you need to be able to scrounge up 5 wins from Houston, Indy, at Chicago, at Tennessee, at Tampa, at New Orleans, vs Atlanta, vs Green Bay, vs Tampa.

fug Frank.  Dumbass.  I was holding onto hope that he already had and we just didn't know it, so that way we knew his whole fuging system was just broken and we did all we could do.  But you mean to tell me this dude ran the whole fuging season into the ground being a fuging stubborn idiot and THEN you're gonna let Bronw call plays after you blew our season to.fuging poo.  fug you, Frank.

Normally, I wouldn't take this strong of a stance, BUT after hearing his press conference today, holy poo it's hard not to have a sentiment similar to this considering the limited offensive production to date...

Why hire a guy you don't ''TRUST'' or ''HAVE TO GET USED TO'' of ''HAVE TO BE READY TO GIVE UP PLAY-CALLING'' to call plays day 1....

    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
