SolidSnake84 01-10-2019, 07:57 AM This.. if I hear " but we were 6-3 before Smith got hurt" one more time I may puke.
I agree with you 100%. For being "6-3", we were probably the worst 6-3 team you've ever saw. Smith was doing jack shit and like other people pointed out, we had already gotten major ass whoopings with Smith at the helm.
I still don't think we would have made the playoffs the way we were playing, but it's possible we would have done it at 8-8 if we had some luck / help. Even when Smith was healthy, i did not see us winning more than 9 games due to the coaching, as well as the injuries.
Half of the games he started, he passed for under 200 yards and was held to 1 TD. Maybe he would have gotten better as the season went on, but it actually looks like stat wise he started regressing after the NO game. He had over 300 yards against Atlanta but that was due to garbage time.
Chico23231 01-10-2019, 09:49 AM ^One thing, is Alex may not win the game with his arm, but he wasn't going to lose it either. Our margin of error were slim to begin with...Win Ugly...so predictably we struggled when Alex went down. Without AP and the improved running game though, 6-3 would not have happened. Alex HAS TO LEAN on a running game if he is going to play conservative.
Like I said when the trade happened, we better get a running game for Alex Smith or its gonna be bad. Alex was coming off his best season as a QB but Kareem Hunt had lead the league in rushing the same year. YES I KNOW every QB benefits from a running game, BUT Alex style of play, with his lack of arm talent dictates he MUST have a running game to be successful.
That's why Ill continue to say move the offense to a dominant Running Game and Good defense. This is exactly what Dallas and Baltimore has done...Chicago to an extent. Our run game is above average...lets improve it to great this offseason, we have the good pieces to work with.

This. It's really their only option...as much as Jay probably hates that.

Again its a lame duck staff, these guys know 2019 is the last season on board so I'd leave too

Snyder thinks the fan backlash, eroding fan base, and empty seats were bad this year? He’s seen nothing yet!

BigHairedAristocrat 01-10-2019, 11:04 AM Tomsula is not under contract, so he's almost certainly gone. I don't even think he'd stay if he was promoted to DC.

We have not hit rock bottom yet. There's still quite a ways to go, but it needs to happen.
Burgold 01-10-2019, 11:08 AM We are dead in the water,as someone said[4-12]is reasonable for the coming season,let's stop with this-Colt Mc Coy is gonna lead us anywhere....no it ain't gonna happen and I truly believe that Smith is through,we're a dog chasing it's own tail and I've been a fan over fifty years and I'm looking at-NO HOPE and no help coming!!

Well that was the idea with Guice.
