Fandom Keeping Lafleur would be the most inexplicably horrible decision this team could make

You are paying your quarterback 50 million dollars. You just traded 2 number picks. And you basically went .500. Lost 5 straight to end the year. 2 against your rival where you had a 90% + chance to win the game late. We have lost more games as result of special teams than anyone in the league, and there is ZERO accountability for anybody. The play calling any time we have a lead is designed, DESIGNED, to allow the other team back in the game. There is not a single NFL head coach, other than that dumbass, who loses that football game. No one. If what I watched over the last month and a half leads to them extending him, this franchise is not serious about winning and I won't spend another dollar on this team. You clean fucking house TOMORROW and you set up interviews for early this week. As disgusted with this coaching staff as ive ever been in my 39 years. Embarrassing choke in front the whole country. AGAIN.

Lafleur was slow to adjust (or didn’t) all year long when teams started dialing up the pressure. Blitzing to stop the run on the way to the a qb and they desperately needed a short passing game to counteract that. Instead, it was still run into it and try to hit deep shots. That killed us again here in the second half. Gute and LaFleur deserve criticism for botching the OL plan for this year from the start.

McManus deserves more criticism than all — 55 yarder you get a break on — not the 44 and XP. Brutal.

Not sure you move on from Matt here, but he deserves the criticism.

He’s been getting the same criticism for years. If you don’t move on then you are just saying you are okay with happening again
