Staff and starters

Staff and Roster in Sync

Strong fit

The starters spread evenly across the elements. No single identity, which makes them hard to scout.

Head coach vs. starting lineupDave CanalesMixed

Some of the lineup clicks with Canales and some doesn't. 13 of 26 are good fits. The starting lineup has no dominant element, so Canales's earth approach sets the tone. Strongest link to Canales: Fortner (OL). The big factor is a Sun conjunction. Watch Fitzgerald (K) with Canales. The issue is a Sun square.

Offensive coordinator vs. offenseBrad IdzikStrong fit

The play caller and the offense are wired alike: 8 of 11 starters connect with Idzik. The offense has no dominant element, so Idzik's air approach sets the tone. Strongest link to Idzik: Hubbard (RB). The big factor is a Mars conjunction. Watch Hunt (OL) with Idzik. The issue is clashing elements.

Defensive coordinator vs. defenseEjiro EveroGood fit

The defense mostly speaks Evero's language, with 7 of 12 starters in sync. The defense has no dominant element, so Evero's earth approach sets the tone. Strongest link to Evero: Scott (S). The big factor is a shared element. Watch Brown (DL) with Evero. The issue is a Mars square.

Canales and his offensive coordinator see some things the same way and some things differently. Canales and his defensive coordinator, Evero, are on the same page. Staff and roster are pulling in the same direction. That's rare.

Quarterback chemistry

The starting quarterback with his starting receivers, tight ends, and offensive coordinator.

Built-In Chemistry

Good fit

Young and Tremayne have more working for them than against them. In the Chinese element cycle, Tremayne's Earth feeds Young's Metal. Tremayne helps Young grow. One more, with an asterisk. Young's Sun may trine Tremayne's Moon, a strong sign of comfort if the birth times cooperate. Now the catch. Fire and water Suns in Young and Tremayne. They'll have to work at it, because their natural rhythms don't match. More good than bad, and the good is real.

Opposites at Work

Friction

Young and Coker aren't a natural fit. Both born in a Snake year, Young and Coker recognize each other's habits right away. Not everything lines up, though. Young and Coker have Suns in a square. Two strong personalities pushing in different directions. It can sharpen both, or it can grind. Fire and water Suns in Young and Coker. They'll have to work at it, because their natural rhythms don't match. Communication will decide whether this works.

On the Same Page

Good fit

The stars like this pairing. Two fire Suns in Young and McMillan. Natural understanding, same tempo. In the Chinese element cycle, Young's Metal feeds McMillan's Water. Young helps McMillan grow. One more, with an asterisk. Young's Sun may sextile McMillan's Moon. If the birth times line up, it's an easy, supportive link. Give it reps and it should click.

Mixed Signals

Mixed

Nothing here is a lock either way. Fire and air: Young and Tremble have Suns in complementary elements, and each makes the other a little better. One more, with an asterisk. Tremble's Sun may trine Young's Moon, a strong sign of comfort if the birth times cooperate. Not everything lines up, though. Young and Tremble have opposing Mars. Different ways of fighting, and when it works they cover each other's weak side. The rest comes down to the work.

Coach's Kind of Player

Good fit

This coaching relationship has a good foundation. Fire player, air coach. Complementary elements, so the fit comes naturally. One more, with an asterisk. Young's Sun may trine Idzik's Moon, a strong sign of comfort if the birth times cooperate. A solid fit to build on.
