Do you ever get tired of being proven hilariously wrong?

What Lawrence showed tonight is EXACTLY why a playoff quitter like Kyler gets so much negativity thrown his way.
A couple of things.
1. Chargers defense vs. Super Bowl Rams defense....lol
2. Doug Pederson vs Kliff Kingsbury
3. Did you not see the opening quote about how Lawrence said its Pederson who helped instill confidence in him which is something he was struggling with. Kliff took it to the half with two timeouts? or 3?

Jags down 27 played for points at the end of the half.

That was a masterclass in 2nd half adjustments.

Kudos to Lawrence. All time great win.


In fairness to PAC and others..context.

Another Head Coaching spot just opened up
Nope it’s already filled, Payton will undoubtedly be hired!!! It’s unfortunately the Cardinal way. Lol

I told my wife when then Jags scored to make it 27-7 Staley would choke just like he always does.

The only interesting game of the WC round is over. And it was a good one!

Kirk dominating tonight.

Still can't believe we gave up a 1st rounder for Hollywood

Mike Williams sure would have helped in this game. Staley 100% deserves to be fired.

We, however, don't deserve to watch Vance Joseph attempt to coach this team, bit it looks like that is where we are headed. Can't wait for the coaching search in 2024!

A lot of credit goes to the Jags D that kept them within striking distance all night. Very different than VJ’s defense last year against the Rams in the playoffs when they marched up and down the field at will on every single possession.

What’s going under the waters is that Herbert played mediocre too. Being gifted 4 turnovers & still not winning is awful.

Staley will get most of the slander, in which he should, but Herbert can’t get excused out of this either.
That incompletion to a wide open Keenan Allen in the end zone made a huge difference.

Man I really don’t think Vance will be the HC lol.

Bidwill was actually surprisingly smart enough to fire Keim & Kliff after the extensions(after surprisingly dumb enough to give it to them in the first place). I really don’t think he’ll hire Vance & it’s just the Rooney rule taking place.

Where is your re-sign Kirk posts?

Because those posts were really damn sparse. but if you wanted to pay him that much, and prove it I will tip my hat to you.

Well if Payton goes to the Chargers because of this colossal loss, at least he will be in the AFC

Now THATS what a young franchise QB looks like. Leadership and attitude cannot be coached - don’t care who the head coach is.

Maybe. Honestly outside of a blowout, I thought Staley was safe. Still don't think Payton goes there unless Dean spanos changes drastically
This take is going to age about as poorly as calling Lawrence Jake Plummer.

At least as far as Staley is concerned. He is GONZO.

Not really. I tend not to give credit for comebacks when the player is the cause for them being far behind in the first place (hence the jake plummer comparison)
