Joe Lombardi Discussion

[gzubeck]

Both games with Keenan back it's been opened up a little more. But Herbert still only had a 5.4 YPA which happens with 12 check downs passes to Ekeler.

At least there at the line of scrimmage or past it. I was getting so tired of backward passes where we lost yardage. ughhh!

Yep.
Check downs are in lieu of running plays.
Get it to EK out in space.
Improvements are needed in all areas.

That’s an obligatory compliment.

Payton isn’t going to throw Lombardi under the bus for a sound bite. He would be tagged a back stabbing asshole around the league if he did.

Yep...u nailed it, River...there are two types of statements:

1. The public, politically correct statement
2. The private, totally honest statement

Payton never promoted Lombo from QB coach to OC for a reason...

Lol, did you even listen to it?

He was talking about our 2 point conversion play and it was a good call.

Hard to imagine, isn't it?

Nobody on this board knew as much about football as Norv Turner, Mike McCoy, Anthony Lynn, Ted Cottrell, Mike Riley, or Kevin Gilbride. That doesn't mean any of those coaches was above criticism from the fans.

Let the imagination of Coryell somehow invade the brain of Lombardi tomorrow. We’re going to need a strong performance on offense. Every possession matters
