I know he's chasing Shula's wins record. Shula has 328, Belichick has 302 to date. Age 71 seems a bit 'senior' to be taking over a team that has enough problems that they just fired their head coach.

I think the guy they were projecting was a start-as-a-guard move-out-to-tackle player. That's way more likely than a linebacker or safety IMO.

Just my guess This. We went with two coordinators this past season that hadn't called plays before, and, well, yeah. The only hesitation I have with Moore is that if we have to get through Dallas, we're up against a team that has all the experience with his offense that they need to gameplan against.

Although the results were the same. Early playoff loss and Dak struggled. 32 minutes ago, e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eriv20 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 5 hours ago, Aerolithe_Lion said: You keep talking about "not working” but dodge defining it. Every scheme in the NFL gives up points to good teams. SF gave up 31 to the bengals, 33 to the ravens, even 29 to the cardinals. Dallas gave up 48 to Green Bay, 35 to the Seahawks, 31 to the Bills. Baltimore gave up 31 to the Rams, 33 to the Browns. Is this what you mean by not working? Do all of the NFL schemes in your opinion "not work?” Defining it? Okay.. let’s review the teams that run this scheme.. eagles, packers, chargers to name a few, bottom of the nfl in total defense statistically. Miami had no success vs teams above .500.. so you have multiple teams running the scheme that weren’t stopping anyone all year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the Chargers did last year on defense is not relevant to what we’re doing this year. Miami’s success is a combination of offense, defense, and special teams. Vic Fangio is not responsible for offense and defense. How do you define stopping someone? You use these vague, umbrella terms that don’t really explain any specific issue you have with him. Do you just not like him as a person? How he looks? What is stopping someone? How many yards per play? How many points per drive? I don’t like his scheme. There’s a lot of tried and true stats to show it’s a bend but don’t break scheme that hasn’t worked really anywhere for a little while now. His defense gave up over 400 yards 4 out of his last 6 games with the dolphins. You will definitely have games where the defense will perform bad but his scheme is consistently bad and beatable. the west coast offense has been very successful in this league, is bill Walsh still calling plays? No, he’s not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, he’s not. The West Coast offense is successful *if you have star personnel running it with the appropriate HC/coordinator. Plenty of teams fail at that style of offense. Again with the "hasn’t really worked.” Johnathan Gannon runs a variant of Fangio’s defense. We finished second in the NFL in total D in 2022 and went to the SB. If that qualifies as the defense not working, what is it you expect for it to "work”? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagle45 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Just for the record... The last 5 rookies of the year were Sauce Gardner, Micah Parsons, Chase Young, Nick Bosa, and Shaq Leonard. First off, that's a fascinating reminder of the lifespan of an NFL player considering that Shaq is already cooked. Secondly, they all went to pro-bowls, were mostly all-pro's, and had superior seasons to Carter, who was a rotational DT in the NFL's worst defense. There weren't many other standouts this year, so Carter more or less deserves it as much as anyone else. But it wasn't some transcendent rookie season.

Know Life Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can stay busy on a 20-hour train ride? Most of my stuff is being shipped, so I'm only bringing a duffle bag with me. This will be my fifth time traveling from Florida to Philly via train, and I can’t think of anything new to do. And while I appreciate your comedic responses, a couple of useful ones would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
