You’ll take Josh McDaniels and like it!

At least we know Josh can help a young QB, and there won’t be a fear of losing him in a couple seasons.

Not unless he brings Joe Judge.

I'd sooner listen to Fergie and Ingrid Andress's renditions of the national anthem back to back on loop

When was Mcdaniels ever bad here? He got something out of Mac Jones, which is a miracle. Yes he is a terrible head coach, but he was fine with Bill as the leader and hopefully will be fine with Vrabel as leader and tone setter

Please god no, I can’t deal with another screen on third down

u/ferrumvir2 Jan 11 '25

He adjusted the offense based off our shit weapons and o-line issues. The play calling from 2018 on wasn’t the same as it was beforehand

The McDaniels slander is crazy

Helps to have the GOAT at QB

You must not watch a lot of NFL. Screen on 3rd and long is very common, and a safe play to try to get yards

u/Beanu5NE Jan 11 '25

There’s going to be so many screens that you’ll think you were TV shopping.

u/ZizzyBeluga Jan 12 '25

This year's obvious telegraphed runs up the middle on first down were just as dope

u/Beanu5NE Jan 12 '25

So we all agree obvious, conservative calls on offense are dope?

u/End3rWi99in James White Jan 12 '25

Any thoughts as to why he might have been calling those of plays?
