Coach Staley Discussion - Fired

[richpjr]

Analytics say 98% of country was thinking WTF.

At least 2% of the country understands how analytics work.

Ok then say so or change the title but the title seems pretty relevant now as Staley the cat has used up his 9 lives. Mark the 4th down decision as the day Staley lost the team and fanbase. Only way he keeps his job is if he wins the Suoer Bowl.

The locker room game ball vids shows Staley has not lost the locker room. Add in he hasnt lost this fan, its actually increased for me. Lets get wild, coz nobody wants to fight a wildman

You sure about that?

I got you about having multiple posts so I can see your point. I moderated a board before.

I repeat.

We will destroy "chargering" with unconventional warfare.

(Or, would you like to keep trying to do it the old way ?)

Big Balls Staley.
Unconventional warfare, for me.

I'll probably get bashed for this...
Herbie, get a little more air under that pass. That was MW being covered by a rookie. Mike is always open... it's a vertical thing with him.
The matchup was there.

You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and there you have the NFL Analytics, the NFL Analytics

If analytics told you to jump off a cliff, would you do it?

I wanted Staley to punt the ball considering Cleveland's game in week 1 against Carolina.

Agree, he hasnt lost the locker room and im fine with being aggressive but that instance imo wasnt the time.

Slayer.

These are two of our leaders.

Different comments.
Different contexts.

Slayer asked WTF are we doing ?
On Monday Staley explained.
And Slayer deleted.

I think the notion that Staley blindly follows the analytics is a false narrative. I can see why people assume it, particularly when his decision fails, because it is easy to say that. But I just cannot believe he looks at a calculator and lets it decide. I think he factors in the analytics for sure. But it is not the only factor. I think he also considers the play call available, the way the defense has been playing, how his defense has been playing, the message it sends to his team, the message it sends to the other team and the NFL, etc.

You could say punt (BTW, I would have punted) because of the Browns'-Carolina game or you could have said go for it based upon the Chargers-Texans game. And one more factor Staley may have been considering is that since the Carolina game the Browns' rookie kicker has been struggling, even missing PATs. He missed a 45 yd kick in the Charger game. I think he is on the verge of becoming another Young-Wae Koo. Very talented but it will happen somewhere else.

KVN played in the game and is doing this interview post that game. And he played in NE and knows how to work the media.
Keenan was at home watching like us, and reacted like us, in the moment. Still should know better, but I understand it.

I think Van Noy has been a great and cheap addition to this team. He provides real value on and off the field. He is not an all pro but is a great complementary piece.

Hoping Keenan comes back soon. He really is a great leader on this team and his reaction (to his reaction) shows it.
