We’ll see cool you all are after we go 0-3
You don't want to bury yourself early

I started looking at this and it's way too much of a pain in the ass. I made it through the first game for each. There have been 64 first year head coaches over the last 10 seasons (including 2020). They went 22-41-1 in their first game. Not great. And I don't think it tells you very much. Most of these teams sucked the previous year, which is why they got new head coaches.I would agree. How many coaches win early in their first season? @dpf1123? Your first project as board statistician. I know you declined the position, but...
You’re doing the Lord’s work. Thank you.I started looking at this and it's way too much of a pain in the ass. I made it through the first game for each.

What was more interesting was the number of turds who got multiple head coaching opportunities. Hue Jackson, Pat Shurmur, Chip Kelly, Mike Mularkey, Doug Marrone and Adam Gase all got two jobs in different places.
And Cleveland has had 6 head coaches in 10 years. That's hard to believe.

I’m your friend...they’re gonna use you up, and toss you aside when you got nothing left and call you nip.I started looking at this and it's way too much of a pain in the ass.
The Bengals‘ uniforms were disgusting.I’m your friend...they’re gonna use you up, and toss you aside when you got nothing left and call you nip.
Im not telling you what to do, but hope you can live a better life from my experiences.
Pro tip - Fabricate 53% of your reported data. It’s the nerdy way to spit in their proverbial hamburger.
Looks way better than Watson right nowAnyone still think Dak isn't worth big time QB money? So he's not Mahomes or Jackson... he's become pretty damned good.
He absolutely is worth it. Do now go draft diving again.Anyone still think Dak isn't worth big time QB money? So he's not Mahomes or Jackson... he's become pretty damned good.
Dak is a better QB than Watson. He just is. Watson is a better athlete but Dak is better between the ear holes.Looks way better than Watson right now
True, though right now it's an unfair comparison.Looks way better than Watson right now
Not to mention he has the AFC equivalent of Garrett running the entire show.True, though right now it's an unfair comparison.
Watson lost a top three wideout and has had to play the two best teams in the NFL back to back. We've had the Rams and Falcons.
The Texans have clearly called on Watson to do more and with less.Dak is a better QB than Watson. He just is. Watson is a better athlete but Dak is better between the ear holes.
Good point. Watson would be helped by better coaching too. Dak has a better brain. But watson under a QB master could be spectacular. O'brien is worse than Garrett.The Texans have clearly called on Watson to do more and with less.
Replace our star WRs with Brandon Cooks and it would hurt like a mofo for Dak too.
I think I would take Dak over Jackson long term. Outside of Mahomes and Wilson, I dunno if there is a better guy to have for the future than Dak. Give the man his 45 million per year contractAnyone still think Dak isn't worth big time QB money? So he's not Mahomes or Jackson... he's become pretty damned good.
Even when Watson had weapons he's never shown that he's hands down a better QB than Dak. Their passing numbers are pretty much even. IMO, they're interchangeable. Two very good but not great QBs who are capable of winning a Super Bowl if surrounded by the right pieces and coaches.The Texans have clearly called on Watson to do more and with less.

Outside of Hopkins, what other weapons has he really had?Even when Watson had weapons he's never shown that he's hands down a better QB than Dak. Their passing numbers are pretty much even.

Just factoring in 2017-2019 seasons:Outside of Hopkins, what other weapons has he really had?
I totally agree that they aren’t terrible, but the closest one outside of Hop I consider to be a weapon is Fuller, who himself has issues with drops and injuries. We also have to factor in the offensive lines that both have played behind. At this point, I have seen more progression from Dak than Watson, the guy still holds on to the ball for too long at times, but they still boast the same amount of team success up this far if i’m not mistaken, in terms of divisional accolades, and a playoff win.Just factoring in 2017-2019 seasons:
Aside from the RB position, their skill position players as a whole haven't been terrible.
Obviously Zeke > Lamar Miller, Carlos Hyde, & Duke Johnson.
But Hopkins, Stills, Fuller, Fells, & Akins, etc. is still a decent group and the gap wasn't very wide when compared to Cooper, Gallup, Witten, Beasley, Jarwin, Hurns, Cobb, Tavon Austin, etc.
But I do agree that 2019 - Present, Dak absolutely has more talent to work with to by a significant margin.
