Our offense is already a Mike shanahan offense

Good between the 20s
suck in red zone

sorry, the nfl is bringing in a different Shannahan this week. Feels bad for Natty Hackett….

No thanks as that means his BF Slowick is coming to be the DC.

I actually was going to suggest they look at Shanny but just as a mentor for Hackett. The guy is a damn deer in the headlights right now. Someone needs to put an arm around his shoulders and tell him to chill the **** out.

edit: What exactly does our OC do if Hackett's calling the plays? Maybe his job can be to snap Hackett out of these panic attacks.

I would love to see the team bring in a "consultant" to help Hackett out. He needs it badly. Shanny, Dungy, Payton... hell, I would settle for Herm Edwards at this point. Anyone who can help Hackett keep his focus where it needs to be. When is the last time Hackett called plays? Then on top of that he is trying to run a team for the first time. This had disaster written all over it from the start.

Yes, maybe, but I wonder if it isn’t too late. I think Hackett is spinning too many plates, so why not take the most cumbersome plate off his shoulders. Get Klint Kubiak involved in the play calling, and Hackett can collaborate & still be involved.

Great Plan!!!

This is where keeping someone like Mike Munchak around may have been a good idea.

You know, as much as NFL teams often eff this kind of stuff up, and as costly as the wrong decision can be in these kind of moments, teams should really think about employing a game/clock management czar or something. In any given situation, they know when and where to call timeout, whether or not they’re actually in FG range, if they need to hurry up and spike the football or have time to run a play, etc. They’ll know the analytics and percentages off the top of their head, so that coaches like Hackett won’t fart around with the clock to the point that they get delay of game penalties taking them out of FG range. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Thinking about their last-gasp drive at the very end, the Texans were all out of sorts too. Granted, some of that was on Davis Mills’ inexperience, but after Lovie gave them a minute to work with, poor clock management at the very end cost them any realistic chance of scoring. Just seems like for every Belichick or Harbaugh who seem to generally be pretty good about this kind of stuff, there are just as many or more Andy Reid / Hackett types across the NFL. 🤷🏼‍♂️

And if you think about it, a HC really has plenty of other responsibilities on their shoulders in addition to this part of the game, especially if they’re also calling plays.

99 percent of pro and college coaches can handle all that…

I think your number is wayyyy too high there, chief. Just my opinion, though. Not to excuse any of the 💩 Hackett did yesterday, but I’ve seen plenty of costly late game coaching boners cost teams over the years. (And college - college is even worse! 🤣) Andy Reid is infamous for them, and he’s one of the better coaches in the league. 🤷🏼‍♂️
