2-2 start, what are your thoughts?
I can’t get my head around this take and the loyalty some of our fans have towards DA at this point. He’s head coach of this team and is therefore responsible for all of it. We’re in year 3 now, the same ridiculous mistakes are happening and the same close games are being lost in the same fashion.
It’s gone on for more than long enough now to be a reflection on him as a HC. He is what his record says he is, not very good. We’re well on our way to 8 or 9 wins, just missing out on the playoffs again and fans telling themselves we’ll get there next year because we were just a few stupid mistakes and close losses away. If/when that happens it’s time to close the book on this era of mediocrity and start again with a new HC/QB pairing. I really hope to be proven wrong by DA.
I don't have any loyalty to Allen or any other coach, but I tend to look things objectively.
- The Philly game, he didn't make 3 players to crash and let the tight end run free.
- The falcons game, he didn't grab Shaheed's hand, and that was enough for a win.
Allen is running a very good defence, they have given away some big plays; one against the cowboys, two against Philly, and an interference against Atlanta.
And as of now, I think he has hired two great coordinators for the offense and special teams.
The problem right now is based on depth and excecution.
Few teams have an excellent head coach, I won't consider Allen on that level, but he is doing a good job this year.
Anyways, not loyalty, just an opinion.
