DeMeco year 1 was great/elite
DeMeco year 2 pretty good
DeMeco year 3 really solid but with issues
DeMeco year 4 horrendous
Not trending in the right direction. It is time to move on.
Last year you were held back by the offense and QB play. This year it's the defense and coaching.

We stopped them 8 times on goal to go, bailed out by a phantom PI and a hold nowhere near the play. That was a killer.
I don't blame Demeco for the TO situation, I blame the defense for letting Lamb go nuts all day and Pickens get loose at the worst possible times.
Except everyone was thinking if you're going to call the time outs and risk them going for the TD to get the ball back you better change your defense and cover their best WR. And we didn't. It's not rocket science.
we are gonna end up with Arch arent we?

We had a free play and Stroud went for it all. Perfect opportunity to try for a 20-30 yd pass and the penalty would have stopped the clock for us
And surprising nobody threw an uncatchable ball.
You guys realize that between Ryans and Stroud you'd struggle to get over 100 IQ points combined, right?

No, I blame Demeco for the TO station. They were not playing for a TD and calling all the TOs allowed them to play for a TD. That was really bad.

I'm normally not a praying man, but if you're up there, please save us, Jeremiah Smith!
Feel bad for Will Anderson. He doesn't deserve this.
Elite air here at 0-4 in franchise history. Two of the other 3 seasons with an 0-4 start got that coach fired.
2005: 0-6. Finished 2-14, got the #1 pick, drafted Super Mario. Got Capers fired.
2008: 0-4. Finished 8-8. Pretty sure there was a ticker-tape parade for a .500 record.
2020: 0-4. Got O'Brien fired after 0-4. Finished 4-12.

Can I blame Demeco, a defensive coach, for not doing anything about Lamb?
Caserio has to be shown a steep cliff right? *******, this OL is an embarrassment.
I wouldn't let him pick the lint out of my ass crack…..
Stick8ng with Caley was dumb too. …. They had a chance to do right, but narcissism took over….

Demeco has never been good with clock management and today may have been the worst final 2 minute clock management ive ever seen in 35+ years of watching the NFL. I wish that was exaggeration, but I dont think it is.

This, we've played 4 games. 2 of them have the offense scoring 30+ points with Stroud looking like rookie Stroud and we lose both games. The defense has given up at least 19 points in every game, and if they could have found one more stop at the end of the game in 3 games we would be 3-1. It's time to reset, this just isn't going to work

You guys are at too freaking hard on Stroud. He had a bad year last year, but he'a been good this year despite a bad OL.
This organization needs to value OL way more or it won't care very much who the QB is. We are not winning a Super Bowl if we don't ever value a Super Bowl quality OL.

Knowing Caserio, we end up with Leavitt.
I said NFL. There have been worst instances ive seen in college for sure
OL, OL, OL, OL, OL

Here's the problem, the offense has put us in position to win in 3 of the 4 games at the end. The defense just needed to perform and we would be 3-1. For the issues Caley has, the defense is 10 times worse with double the talent

This will 100% be the end of Ryans. Last year's start was very different. You one they were close, and it was a matter of time before they broke out.
This year, the defense is garbage, combined with a QB that has sucked since his second year. CJ is a ****show.

He managed it like we had another half. That strategy was cash during the first to get an extra 3. But to reserve time and actually game plan for a winning drive? No. He used the same trick twice for two completely different scenarios and that is why he's on the hot seat. Like bro, what are you doing. Save at least one TO.
Of course the one time ill be in town for the Holidays and got tickets to the Jags game, and the game will mean absolutely nothing to the Texans

I agree…..
having no WR's for him outside of Nico is a joke,……. Jared Wyneshould be bagging groceries.
louis Bond as your offensive weapon you drafted? He can't even make the team…..
GTFO

This. We can't gain a yard running the ball and the o line overall is horrible, yet stroud has looked awesome for the most part. Add to that the only receiver that is worth a damn has only played 2/4 games this year.
The Texans have issues, but this game was decided after the Texans stopped Arlington multiple times and were rewarded with phantom flags to keep a touchdown drive going.
Stroud has been really good this year. Good enough to have us 3-1 or 2-2 at worst.
Defense lost the Buffalo game and this game.

among Caserio, DeMeco, and Stroud...who to keep...who to let go...
is there a right answer?
Tunsil.
That guy had to go if we were going to be able to field the 29th most expensive OL. We now pay all 10 of our OL less in aggregate than what single great players make, with a little change to spare. While we are still on Cj's rookie deal and should be able to afford better.

And the Colts game
I can't believe we got out-coached by DALLAS of all teams…wait, no, they didn't do any special coaching. We used our time-outs for them and left CeeDee open all game.
Bailing on Stroud is a huge gamble......

Well, user name fits. Spew your fury elsewhere today. CJ was damn good today. Acting like he is even part of the problem right now is just foolish. He played winning football.

You think when he has a free play and decided to throw it up for grabs instead of throwing underneath for a manageable final play was the winning move?
I'm pretty sure everyone has had it with Ryans. Not sure why you're coming after me.
All of them. No way you let any of them make another hire.
The crappy defense this season is really a head scratcher. I can't put a finger on it, it's practically the same dudes.
Why on earth did Ryans change the defensive approach in the 2nd half.
They were playing like they had a 30+ point lead in prevent.
CJ balled out and defense was good for 3/4 of the game.
This one is on the coaching staff.
