    You stupid mutherfu*kers and your god damn moneyball  bullshlt ...when you have 3 of the top pitchers in baseball you can call it whatever the f*ck you want.

  • But even so, Hue is the HC, he signed up knowing Sashi had final say on roster. It is Hue's job to bring our QBs on, it is his job to bring all the players on, I dont have much sympathy for him. He isn't coaching what he has well and seems to be instead blaming everybody else

    I don't disagree that he isn't calling plays to make the job easier on the QB.   Look at the throws he had Hogan throwing....dude has to know he doesn't have the arm to make that throw yet it still kept getting called.  He finally last week started calling some sort passes to make things easier on Kizer.    The clock management is infuriating.....its not that hard.  Wanted to send him a game of Madden to play over the bye week so he can learn some clock management skills.     That's why I don't think he gets brought back next year.  Something has to change with a team with a record this poor.  If Jimmy is sold on the moneyball/analytics, then still something needs to be done and it's going to be Hue that pays the price.

    I don’t understand the reasoning of not having a veteran QB on the roster mentor the young’uns.

    Isnt that Hue's job?

    Hue has never played QB in the NFL.

    Depends on who is in control over the roster, Hue or the Harvard nerds?

    Sashi controls the 53 man roster.

    Well there's absolutely no chance Hue doesn't say who and who isnt in that QB room so it's on him whatever way you look at it

    So 1.5 seasons isn't enough time to accurately critique the front office, yet it appears to be plenty enough time to evaluate Hue?

    Absolutely right. The FO tore down and is building a roster, eight games is enough to evaluate that Greg Williams is doing ok. 1.5 years later the offense, which is Hue's, he doesn't even have an OC, BLOWS. And he chose the QBs, so its on him

    NO NO NO NO....you  DONT get it.

    The very nature of building a team in baseball and the nfl is different in just about every way.  it's apples and oranges.  Applying the 'moneyball' principles in baseball and the nfl look

    totally different.

    Unless you can explain the exact reasons its different, you're just talking out of your butt.

    also, I dont think a lot of you guys know the difference between moneyball and rebuilding. The As and Astros were very different.  They arent even related really.  You guys here just throw words around like analytics, process, moneyball, etc and are not sure what they really mean and in what context.

    The amount of offensive tools the front office has provided Hue has been staggering, for sure.

    Unless you can tell us why they aren’t related, you’re just talking out of your butt.

    Houston....

    So because they’re 0-8 now they won’t do anything in 2020? You really think that’s a logical case?

    No, he, Goober, Jethro, Barney are there trying to run the country. (I would have more faith in the Mayberry Boys)
