It’s more comical to call all the stuff you guys are whining about as mistakes. No chance Meyer is “overwhelmed”. This team went 1-15 last year …. There will be bad outings before it’s all fixed Though I have my share of concerns with Meyer, I'm not entirely sure that standard is particularly fair to Meyer. From the outside looking in, there isn't going to be a lot evident under the circumstances, being so early in the season, etc. I know UM is not Jimmy Johnson, Trevor isn't Troy Aikman, and Jacksonville 2021 isn't Dallas 1989. But many of the same things being said about UM now were being said about Jimmy Johnson then in the midst of a 1-15 season. Jimmy Johnson wound up winning 2 Super Bowls with Dallas in five years. Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!

I ain't seen jack [BLEEP] to make me think this clown has the faintest clue.
Sincerely. Tell me three things he's done well outside selecting the clear cut number one pick? Cuz' i got 9 things he's screwed the pooch on ready to rattle off.

But the likes of Al Groh never got a franchise QB like Aikman...or Lawrence appears to be. Point is, bad in the first two games....or first year...doesn't necessarily mean bad player or coach. Intense criticism early on doesn't necessarily mean bad player or coach. Let it play out. Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!

All is over but the crying each week. I was happy with the first drive. Just glad the Broncos deferred.
Can't change to a 3-4 because you want to do it. Chark is going to light it up somewhere else. This team has a big talent gap. Biggest surprise for me is Houston is better than I gave them credit for being. I think Urban was the wrong hire and he proved it with the off season nonsense. I am hoping USC laser focuses on him and he goes away. This franchise is awful.
Birth of the Franchise - November 30, 1993
Death of the Franchise - November 29, 2011 Fans deserve better. Thanks for all the good times too many are in the past.

Like "he seemed lost on the sideline last week". LMAO... The point is that your so called industry experts are talking heads (if they were experts they would be getting paid to coach or GM). And you for some reason want to pass judgement before we have any real data. I haven't seen anything to indicate that he won't be successful here. If you chose to listen to a bunch of folks just looking for clicks thats your business. As long as we can agree neither one of us know right now whether he is going to be successful.

As someone else said, we have about 15 data points on the Meyer Mistake. 13 of them are negative and the other two so obvious an blind squirrel could've found those nuts. Just because you choose to ignore the facts doesn't mean they aren't still the facts. "I haven't seen...", well that's because you refuse to open your eyes or willfully ignore what you're being shown. “An empty vessel makes the loudest sound, so they that have the least wit are the greatest babblers.”. - Plato

Meyer seemed to understand the balanced offense theory in the first drive and then reverted to Trevor's arm more as the game wore on. WR drops are still an issue and our secondary is hopeless. Overall, Meyer made some progress but other aspects are still subpar. Some of that comes from the fact that you simply can't coach skill into bad players. We're roster deficient and no coach could make some of these guys any better. Not to mention Meyer is learning too. Team prospects for this year? 1-2 wins. We suck again. Is Meyer the problem? Part of it, certainly. Could another experienced coach raise the prospects of this team? Marginally. We just don't have a talented roster. We show less advertisements to registered users.

I was cautiously optimistic with the hiring, wasn’t sure how long he work out for, but pairing him with Lawrence gave the franchise some positive buzz for once.
I quickly lost faith after the draft. He clearly has no idea what he’s doing.

I don't know, but a HC surely influences the play scripts. Let me add another issue confronting this team. Our top scorer, the top scorer of any team, has fallen off a cliff. Lambo is in crisis which subtracts potentially 5-10 points per game from our score. |
