43 comments

1. GRUBB – OUT COACHED EVERY WEEK
   HUFF – FRAUD
   MACFRAUDALD – NO LONGER DEFENSIVE GURU..THIS D IS TERRIBLE, 0 SACKS IS PATHETIC
   DURDE..MIA

   The water boy and Dickson are the beasts on this team.

   This team has no discipline and you can tell the message isn't getting home.

   O line and Huff are the worst in the league, Bradford is a turnstile, Tomlison is weak, Williams is a fraud, and Jerrell is…

   Save you money and sell your tickets…

2. GENO SMITH AND O LINE SUC

3. Defense was looking more consistent… offense was a mess. The offense needs to keep it simple and work more on getting the ball out quicker.

4. Brock the DAWGFATHER would take the field goal you dont know the future !

5. Seahawks game to win and couldn't finish. Build the O line. Non-stop pressure and low graded run game, the holes aren't there.

6. We all expected growing pains this year. But I think it’s reasonable to expect, now over halfway through the season, that we’d be seeing signs of growth and progression. I was over the moon when we signed MM as head coach, but as of now it remains to be seen if he’s the guy. At the moment he’s not passing the eye test.

7. Sorry Coach, this team does not have it.

8. Send Geno to the Practice Squad. Get Howell in there as our QB.

9. I've said it before & I'll say it again ,,, YOU INHERITED A VETERAN TALENT LADEN TEAM !!! THIS IS NOT A NEW TEAM … just a new " head " coach … "coaching " to date is questionable. WHY ??? does Geno NEVER PUMP FAKE THE BALL ?????????? For 9 games this season so far ,,, NO [ 0 ] BALL PUMP FAKES !!!!! Opposing defenses are noting this & are jumping up when it appears Geno starts his throwing motion. Ask yerself ,,, HOW MANY BATTED DOWN / DEFLECTED PASS ATTEMPTS has Geno had so far ,,, thru 9 games ??? Look at this & you will see a GLARING problem.

10. That loss was on Grub

11. Geno is a detriment to this team. He will never win a Super Bowl, let alone get to one. It's time to move on. Unfortunately, our fan base is inundated with bandwagon simps that praise mediocrity.

12. We should have dominated that game. Now we’re sitting last in the division. Fix the o line! Give Geno a chance under good protection…

13. Sorry MAC, You blew that call to go forit on 4th down and disregard the field goal for 3. We got nothing in the fourth down just like the whole day. I still can't figure how you invest in a team with the win in the balance on a bunch that couldn't produce all day. The defense was the ONLY thing you could count on. So why not incentivize and be 3 up and let them stop the rams on the drive in OT. I actually thought Geno had found the decision making gene, just to watch him make two critical throws…both in the endzone. Being disappointed in himself doesn't make for a run at the post season. And get a HS kid to play center…less testosterone.

14. Your team doesn't have any toes left. They keep beating themselves. Other QBs must look forward to playing you guys. Given the talent on this roster, 4-5 just ain't good enough. Ans ZERO pass rush is on John Schneider.

15. Can you say jim mora? This team is not ready to play. You can’t just jam it in the middle on third and 3 . Please teach connor Williams how to snap the ball.

16. Relax, it’s Mike’s first year. At least let him get a proper draft or two under his belt

17. I just got in from work Mike so let me help you before I sit back and relax. Bench Geno and start Sam.

18. 11 TDs and 10 Interceptions, GTFO, Geno is doing nothing to help is with is idiotic fkg red zone turnovers

19. That was the most frustrating football game I have watched in years maybe ever

20. Team is years away from competitive. Lots of deadwood on team

21. In the duration of this interview, Bradford ate 2 more cheeseburgers.

22. Mike Macdonald has not improved the defense or team which was the reason we fired PC and hired Macdonald.

23. The NFL teams have their business plan for the money-business side. If the coaching side has a business plan what are the critical success factors? I’m sure the 2 plans are similar or the same which include winning as the main objective since that always solves most of the issues. It’s also the most fun and what it's all about. Maximizing athletic growth and achievement.
    
    If not you lose your way, lose fans, the team valuation (5-12 billion) drops a billion or three, you become ridiculed, other teams want to take your good players that want to be a on a winning team. Death spiral. Next prepared coach takes over or next unprepared victim.
    
    If you did a case study of what teams win what would the data be? At a general glance it appears to be the clutch closer QB’s that can win at will is the necessary piece. They have tried to use defense to win in the past. Bear Bryant said "Offense sells tickets, but defense wins championships". However, in recent years, the adage has been more debated. NFL rule changes have made defenses less effective, and some say that offense now wins championships.
    
    When we did the coaching search Holmgren, who produced 3 Super Bowl QB’s said we should find an offensive coach. We got what we got due to what exists in the hiring pool.
    
    Now the reality is we have the Geno conundrum. The net balance of his performance is leaning to the negative. Refer to the business plan on what to do. This year was a retraining with new winning OC. Geno makes big mistakes and does not have clutch closer capabilities. Do you ride out the season with Geno and tough games or put Sam in to see his capabilities. If a clutch closer QB is out there and they knew they could have the #1 spot and not deal with the Geno conundrum it might attract a QB. Sam could do as well as Geno in wins and may develop into more. Geno over sells and under delivers. That’s him. If they plan on going with Geno next year Mike better be prepared for 3 seasons and out as a loser. There are good coaches in the league that get sent down the road because they didn’t win with the clutch closer QB they didn’t have.
    
    The NFL being monkey see, monkey do are hoarding OL and QB’s so the demand can prevent teams from getting the franchise, clutch closer QB. (Atlanta Pennix)
    
    The business plan should include a Holmgren QB development model. If not have fun pissing in the wind.

24. So they lose back to back games and get a week off 🙄, they need all the work possible, during these two weeks

25. Another waste of time this interview, ask challenging questions and stop kissing his backside

26. Hired the wrong HC. Dude went out because of lack of connections and hired a bunch of college coaches. Staff is garbage.

27. John Schneider is shaping Mac’s perspective on the OL, emphasizing that it’s not just about the OL. This broader narrative has been around for years, and you have got to face the reality at some point.

28. A better Oline would have "moved people" when we need too. ✅️💯 Keep pushin' positive, coach!! 💯👊🏽
    #Hawks4Life 💚💪🏾👊🏽💯💙

29. Easy to trust him. Impossible not to like him.

30. This season is the pre-season for next year, this team is no where near play-off ready and can’t win in the playoffs with a terrible O-line. Play the rookies and start looking at O-line prospects for trade and the draft

31. Smell like easy loser coach.

32. So sad as a fan when we consistently lose to niners and rams with Geno as qb. Smh.

33. Call out geno. To many mistakes. Stop going to the line of scrimmage and changing the plays they are reading you. Your not maholmes

34. Rams fan here…. this coach is impressive – sharp.

35. Need more Zach Charbonnet and Less Walker on those short yardage plays

36. Fire Schneider. He has failed since SB 49 to put together a competent Oline and Dline

37. I just felt for Geno. ❤ Keep it up!

38. Garbage

39. Rams fan here, you guy's played lights out, we got a bit of the Irish luck.

40. Geno holds the ball too long and stair where he's going to throw

41. Conor Williams needs to be addressed. Why the F does Gino have to be juggling the ball every snap… or even worse the ball flying 2 feet over his head.

42. Pete got sacked for a 9-8 season so what is going to be the message at the end of this season….

43. FIRE HIM HES A BUM HES THE ONLY THING NEEDS BE “eliminated”🤓 is YOU McDICKold
