After most of the opening weekend games have been played, I see two coaches that are getting the axe early, skinny soy boy Mike McDaniel at Miami and fat-arse Brian Daboll of my NY Giants.

Daniel Jones always plays well in Weeks 1-3. So that's not really a good excuse.

Well, I never liked Jones, I've been calling him a bum for years. One good game in Indy is inconclusive to me on that end. Daboll has always been part of the problem, though, along with an incompetent front office. The GM letting Saquon go for nothing was colossally stupid.

Daboll probably won’t make it to the halfway point of the season.

Zach Taylor and Kevin Stefanski should be on the hot seat after that terrible display of football both teams executed today.

The dolphins appear even more hopeless than the saints. What an ugly situation that looks like.

I'd fire Raheem Morris tonight but Arthur Blank won't do it.

It's 1 week against a likely shitty defense

A recurring theme with these coaches though is the OL failing. It seems that getting a good, consistent OL is getting harder than finding competent QB play these days. I watched a huge chunk of that NYG-WAS game and NYG's OL was the issue. MIA has OL issues. Zac Taylor may finally get fired for their OL. And they've all invested pretty heavily.

Even KC is having issues in that area and it's making Mahomes drop a tier from GOAT-level to just great NFL QB.

That's why a team like Philly can frick up and overpay for a RB like Saquan and make it look smart. Their OL made him transform his output, while the team output was only a win or so better.

what is so funny to me is that people were convinced that Mike McDaniel was the next offensive genius in the league.

how quickly that narrative has changed.

He's 9-25 since then. If he's a savant, then the emphasis is on the idiot part.

Fixing Josh Allen is one of the most outlier coaching events in NFL history, and then he got a team led by Daniel Jones and Saquan into the playoffs, which is impressive as hell.

Like I said, they could never get the OL right and it's going to end him. McDaniel is having the same issues in MIA.

McDaniel is showing he has trouble adjusting to Hill losing a step and cover 2, but, I imagine if his OL was better they'd be able to punish teams running. it could just be his inability to adjust, though. Shanahan has made a lot of guys under him look smart until they didn't have KS to rely on for the adjustments.

The one I don't get is Stefanski. It's not his fault they went all in on Watson.

I mean in fairness to him the one year Tua played all 17 games (2023) Miami was #2 in PPG and #1 in YPG

It’s his shortcomings as HC that are going to get him fired, not as playcaller. He won’t have issues getting his next OC role

Straight hyperbole designed to support your bullshite narrative. Josh Allen was never broken, he just needed a little tweaking. He didn't "fix" one of the best QBs in the league. Allen's success helped get him a head coaching gig. Daniel Jones was always a bum and Daboll pissed away Saquon's early years with incompetent coaching. One year of success doesn't make him a savant, it makes him lucky.

He's the only "physical freak who was wildly inaccurate" to become accurate, let alone accurate and a cerebral QB. Daboll turned an Anthony Richardson into the MVP.

He created one of the best QBs in the league.

Your attempt at revisionist history is the "Straight hyperbole designed to support your bullshite narrative" of this thread.
