Quote:Because he doesnt know or forgot the rules of the game.

Fighting through adversity man. Great learning experience man. Gotta work through it and give that intensity man. Was a great win man against a good team man. Got punched in the mouth man. Yeah man. 

Quote:Example?

 

I assume he is referring to #52 failing to report himself eligible - which, of course, was Pullard's fault, not Bradley's.

Quote:Example?

Forgetting report or to tell the player to report with a # greater than 49

We can't fire Gus now, but if we see the same mistakes as year 1 then he deserves to be fired at the end of the season.

well he watched him not report, i knew the flag was coming. call TO, tell Bortles, something dont just let it happen.

All Gus had to do was tell Pullard, "You are a fullback on the next play."

You mean the same mistakes as Year 3? In Year 1 we had different assistant coaches.

This I can agree with.

 

I'm not some super Gus apologist.

 

I just get really annoyed with the posters knee jerk-y ness. 

 

No it wasn't a good showing.

No it didn't count.

 

Let's move along.

No, I mean the same mistakes in year 1.


I am aware that we had different assistant coaches in year 1.

Quote:Why do fans (most of which would be devastated by losing their jobs) wish unemployment upon so many people (coaches, GMs, players) that have lives and families to worry about?


Because most people are selfish.

Gus being fired would give the weak minded a temporary relief and make them feel better about themselves.


Unfortunately the feeling will wear off and they'll be right back to wishing bad things on good people.

Lol!! This is the funniest thing I've read in a while.

Fair point. I believe that is why Gus took responsibility at the presser.

 

But that is ONE instance in an entire game that you can put solely on the coach.

 

 

For the offense, Joker got handled, Beachum was rusty, Blake's timing was off, Yeldon fumbled.

None of that is on the coach.

 

For the D (you can blame scheme if you want, but Wash has his hands in it this time and it IS a lil different) Young edge rushers get little to no pressure. Interior got little to no pressure. LBers were off (Jack, Smith, and Poz). 

This isn't them not being prepared, it's playing piss poor football fellas.

 

Now... if they play poorly through the season at this point, you can point to coaching. But it was an anomaly when it is placed next to the very good showing this team had in the first two games.

 

The awful start both sides had, at this point in preseason, is an fluke. Because we have more examples of good than bad.

I dont want to fire him yet, but this stuff is rediculous. Its like hes never coached the game, running with Yeldon on the goal line, Fades to Burners, penalties on the coaching staff, not reporting players. IDK what the team talks about before the game bc it isnt football. No energy from snap 1. Looked like they just went out there to go out there.

Many fans never stop wishing bad things on good people. That is what happens when you spend four years bashing your head coach.

I was pretty serious.

 

It's something as fans we don't think about...

 

but I heard Coach Cowher say it when speaking about getting a job offer.

He would never wish for someone to lose their job. People have to move their families. Kids change schools. Its tough. Not just Gus, but a lot of assistants too. I mean... some of them may not even work in the NFL again.

 

Who they hell are we, joe-schmo fan, to WANT someone to lose their job.

Shouldn't you wish for them to do it better? 

 

Meh... whatever, Karma's a [BLEEP].

There was no penalty on the coach. Tony Corrente called out #52.

Fade to Lee, that's an OC call and a Blake decision.

 

The energy was there, got sapped away by fumble-quick score, imo.

Then again drove down the field well and settled for FG was rough.

 

The penalties I thought improved from the first two games but false starts by a QB and C should never ever ever ever ever happen.

 

And I bet they don't.

Gus will not have a mentally tough team until he starts publicly executing players that commit penalties or make mistakes. They must be dragged to the middle of the field, flogged, and executed, all during the game. That way everyone will know Gus means business.


I mean it's gory but I think it could work.

Exactly Kane. When Buffalo traded a QB to Dallas midseason a couple years ago he wanted to stay in Buffalo because they had three young kids and were expecting a fourth. That is bad timing for the player to change teams. I would never wish for someone to be in that situation whether he was fired or transferred to another facility.

What did they do against Tampa?
