You are absolutely conflating two things that have nothing to do with each other here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiller Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 interesting little debates. I personally love the inclusion of metrics in football but you have to take a step back and look at each situation on its own. Sure use metrics to give you some information but not as the end all answer. Now on to this debate. Clock management is I think one aspect that a coach can improve on. Personally I am not sold on the though that MM has terrible clock management. Didn't seem to have a problem with it when GB kept beating us with Rogers with last second heroics. YES MM had some errors this year clock management, 1 main one which I believe was more a cluster of situations rather then just MM being stupid... On to metrics and the Buff/Titan game. Ironically I happen to be a rather avid Titan fan. Sue me... Live and die cowboys, but also routed heavily for the Oilers growing up. Any way as a Titan fan I can tell you, and a glance at their board will confirm Titans have a 'bad' defense worse then ours in a way, HOWEVER one thing the Titans have done and done extremely well over the years is GOAL line stands.. I know I was not shocked at all that Buffalo failed on the sneak play. SO in that case as a coach I would hope I would be aware that Titan's do a good job of stopping a sneak. And thus though metrics say go for it I would think hard about kicking the FG. OR just calling a different play.... The other factor. Going to OT... well if you go to OT against Titans' think of it as going to OT against us.. you better 1 hope you win the toss and 2 hope you score a TD on your drive otherwise YOU can expect to LOOSE> Do metrics tell you about how good the other team is at scoring TD's in OT in deciding to go for a tie or a win.. NOT really they just tell you stats... and believe me stats can tell you what ever they want. In my mind I would be UPSET if Dallas went for it in that spot.. especially as I know a weakness of Dallas is running short yardage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't mean we excuse the clock management issues. I am THRILLED MM is embracing analytics. It makes his job so much more effective. I bet you each of the coaches here is learning a ton as they continue to progress in their coaching careers and see the value of analytics. I love the fact that we’re so aggressive. And, I’m with you; just because I love the aggressiveness on 4th down doesn’t mean that I’m excusing his poor clock management. It seems completely reasonable to appreciate one but not the other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WizardHawk Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I’m fully prepared for Dallas to lose both KM and DQ this off-season. Zero chance MM gets the axe for either at this rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Kellen, teams will surely be interested. But Jerry can be pretty persuasive. Will McClay can surely attest, life is pretty good as Jerry’s golden boy.
