The ability to adapt one’s scheme to their talent is the most important aspect of coaching in football
It’s evident when that is and isn’t happening

I…am extremely confused by everything that just happened in the last 90 seconds of this Chargers game
— Mina Kimes (@minakimes) September 26, 2021
The #Chargers decision to throw a pass and not kneel at the 3 yard line and kick the game winning field goal that goes in over 99% is the worst game management decision I have seen in years.

If you’re scoring at home, Justin Tucker has beaten the #Lions with 61- and 66-yard field goals in his last two games in Detroit. Goodness.

Najee Harris has 12 catches on 15 targets today.

Rookie starting QBs are 1-10 so far this season:
Trevor Lawrence: 0-3
Zach Wilson: 0-3
Justin Fields: 0-1
Mac Jones 1-2 (win over Wilson)
Davis Mills: 0-1— Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) September 26, 2021
And now Wilson has thrown an INT, his 6th of the year. Becomes the third Jets QB to have six INTs in his first three starts. Others: Geno Smith and Glenn Foley. #Jets
— Rich Cimini (@RichCimini) September 26, 2021
It is certainly not pretty but @ZachWilson has taken his lumps against two burgeoning defenses at Carolina and Denver while absorbing a very long day against a Belichick defense and is still slinging it and kicking.
Onward.

Broncos have allowed 26 points in three games

SB contending coaches have known this for about 30 years. Just media people and some analysts who haven’t taken the time study it. Same with play action. It works from first play of a game whether you have established the run or not. https://t.co/pFgsDfj3E1

A quick look at how the 2021 #Jets through their 1st three games compare to the 2020 Jets through 3 games pic.twitter.com/qPbWsw9fgY

Justin Herbert is on a warpath this season — legit improvement in accuracy and clean-pocket play.
Will enter Week 4 top-five in @PFF grade.

Real statement win from the Rams.
Bucs were the team expecting to come in and show where the class of the NFC needs to get to, and the Rams caused them problems on both sides of the ball.
For-real contenders.#TBvsLAR
— Sam Monson (@PFF_Sam) September 26, 2021
We’re only in Week 3, but the #Rams win over the #Bucs could play a big factor later this season in playoff seeding.
Head-to-head is first tie-breaker if both teams finish with the same record.

3 timeouts left. 49ers snap this with 12 seconds in the play clock instead of letting it run a bit more. Cost them. pic.twitter.com/rSv7c9CJUx

Drafting a RB before fixing your OL is like buying a sports car in a city full of potholes https://t.co/9d4xol0sSa

Justin Tucker is the league’s all-time leader in FG% but has never once led the NFL in that statistic during a season
