He would fuck that up.Is he officially allowed to fire himself now?
Once Deshaun threw his weight behind him it was always gonna be this way
I dont think hes that bad a coach, hes average, he would be a lot more liked in the media imo if he didnt act like he was the next coming of belichek
This has been the case for the last year.
Their Under wins is one I’ll be itching to get after this summer.
Why the under? This past season it was set at 8.5 and was actually juiced to the under. Once Luck retired I jumped all over the over and it won easily.
I’m not defending O’Brien at all, he needs a common sense coach on staff, but it’s doubtful their RSW will be higher than 8-9. They still play in the AFC South, which is good for at least 4 wins every it seems. They seemingly make the playoffs every year, regardless of their playoff success (or lack thereof).
With that talent on offense, and if their defense can stay healthy and get back to form, I feel like betting a RSW under with this team is tough to do. Unless, of course it’s set at like 10 or something, but that seems to Ben highly unlikely.
Kevin Clark of the Ringer has a great NFL mantra that he likes to bring up periodically - in the long run in this league, the smart teams win and the dumb teams lose.
This is a 10-6 team with a negative point differential and 7.8 Pythagorean wins, that has no meaningful way of getting better or younger this offseason. They will have no depth, and require extremely fortunate injury luck to crack 9 wins next year imo.
