HC has to take the responsibility but he's a good coach.
Petting and the players cost this game
At this point? No. No he is not. Petzing isn't at fault for that last drive; Gannon is. All it takes is to tell Petzing not to run it 3 straight plays. That's a HC call, not an OC call.

Gannon is telling us who he is this season. I believe him.

Petzing has to be fired for sure. I get that Simmons is a great player but you CANNOT let one guy on defense completely wreck your offense like that

That entire 2nd half was because they couldn't figure out how to block Simmons so they just turtled the whole 2nd half

But still if Emari just crosses the damn goalline we win.

YOu either clean house tomorrow or you are going to lose the fan base.

You know that won’t happen. I mean this team never has a sense of urgency. We won’t do this week.

Gannon just has to do something to show he isn’t a lame duck. I don’t think he will but he has to show the fanbase he is in control.

So his foot was on the line and the ball LOOKED like it was at least even with his foot if not further across the line. Did I just get a bad view of it?

He doesn’t care about the fan base, and he shouldn’t. The fan base only cares about winning. Cutting demercado doesn’t help you win; it makes it harder.

Not freaking out and playing to the fans is one of the best things about Gannon tbh.

He may not care about the fanbase but the owner should. It should be embarrassing to come home to a half empty stadium every week.

Agree that he won’t be reactive after this. Not his style.

Let’s be real, Bidwill doesn’t have the balls and (more importantly) is too tight with his wallet to fire Gannon / Petzing tomorrow. Total loser mentality from top to bottom.

Nobody is getting fired. This team is right where Michael wants them. They are an average team making him millions.

Clif, you mean “Nobody is getting fired. This team is right where Michael wants them. They are an average CLOWN SHOW making him millions.” Right?

On the last 3rd down. If we pass and it falls incomplete, we lose maybe 8 seconds because the 2 minute warning was going to hit soon after.

We did not have to be locked into a run to shave another 40 seconds off.

But earlier, when it was the end of the first half, where we just needed a few yards for a fg, he doesn't grind them out or after a penalty or bad play try to get a few more yards to try a 60 yarder.

Petzing has streams crossed.

Cutting him isn't playing to the fans. Cutting him shows the rest of the team you are getting ruthless and that this type of crap won't be tolerated. Coddling him and putting him right back in the game tells the team ******* mistakes are just fine and you'll get a lollipop afterwards.

It’s the NFL; these are real adults and they know that their jobs are tenuous.
