Coach Staley Discussion - Fired

[Xenos]

They will want to control the ball which they can if our defense plays the way it has lately. They shut us out last year and the Ravens nearly did the same yesterday. Belichick has the recipe and he’ll be cooking

Last year was last year. We’re a better team this year and need to beat the lesser teams.

This. The Patriots are 2-4. And you can say "hey, they played the Cowboys pretty tough, took them to OT." You can also say "they were trailing to the Texans by three scores and it took the punter kicking the ball into his own team plus the kicker missing two field goals and a couple extra points" to be in that game.

So yes, the Patriots might try running the ball - but their defense is not the Ravens, their offense will do something but the Chargers will be different in two weeks.

They have the same HC that shut down our offense last year so don't count them out.

I miss Norv's pressers after a loss. He was a master at the subtle art of deferring blame.
I don't even remember what Lynn would say. He was starting to look shell shocked.

Oh Lynn was the worst offender, he was the one who deferred blame on others.

Thats true. Belichick will have a game plan to stop the offense - so the Chargers might need to spend the next two weeks , tweaking things.

Got to find a way to beat press. And have Herbert ready for different looks and blitzes.

Execution is the name of the game... Execution.... even with a poor game plan if everyone is executing we will win the game...

Was some piss poor tackling yesterday.

The tackling has been bad after the Raiders game. Missed a lot of tackles against the Browns.

Especially the “tackle attempt” that Adderly made on that long TD pass to Njoku. It was the worst attempt I’ve seen this season by the Chargers defense and especially disappointing because Adderly was at least a solid tackler in the first 3 games.

Cowboys and Tampa Bay. Don’t underestimate the Patriots. They had the plan to shut us out last year and their defense is better this year. They have the ability to dink, dunk, ground and pound which is our weakness. Belichick has had our number for over a decade

Browns game was a warning sign. We escaped with a win but gave up a shitload of offense. Where is the defensive wunderkind?

Time for Telesco to bring in about 6 defensive lineman for tryouts.
