Gutless decision on 4th and 1 (1 Viewer)

[St. Geezy]

It’s a stereotypical defensive head coach mindset. Never take risks or have an aggressive mindset offensively that could end up putting your defense in a bad situation. He was scared. Or only did he say he doesn’t trust the offense to get a yard, but he doesn’t trust his defense to stop them if they don’t make it.

In my opinion, what made Belicheck so good was he was a great defensive mind that let Brady be aggressive and seal games over and over. With rules today it’s so hard on defenses to finish games. Offenses with any time left and a chance to win generally do it. We got Taysom Hill and Alvin freakin Kamara who both got yards at will today, and we punt.

THIS.

One of the many reasons I don’t like our coaching setup. We have a guy whose number 1 priority is not putting HIS side of the football in a perilous spot with what the offense does, in what is an offensive league.

He still has a DC mindset and seems to separate himself from his offense entirely, even with his game management decisions.

After how many years and we still don't utilize Taysom Hill properly?

if we are around the 50, just go for it. Defense will let them back to that side of the field anyway. This team needs to try and play keep away.

What was that? Correct me if I'm wrong, but this was following the1st and 30 shenanigans, we pick up the first there, break their will, milk the clock and maybe kick a FG to go up 8 if all else fails. Instead we try to make them jump and take a delay of game.

That was the most cowardly chicken sheet coaching I have ever seen. It's like they wanted to lose the game. If you can't pick up a yard against the PANTHERS, you don't deserve to win the game.

lol he wanted to trust the defense that can’t tackle. Sounds like a normal DA strategy

Oh come on now, stop the criticism. Why y’all not “looking past the results” …

DA likes to win with his defense. SP likes to win with his offense. The idea was "let's see if we can get them to jump off sides, and if not we'll win the game with my defense".

This just another reason why DA is not head coach material.

Gutless is the perfect word to describe Allen. Softest coach in the NFL
