Quote:Yeah, maybe emulating TMD isn't such a good idea.

 

While Gus' whole philosophy might be about "relieving anxiety in his players", unfortunately it has also relieved the Jags of wins too.

 

This team, while young, does have talent and no way they should only have 1 win so far.

 

This team is clearly better then last years team and needs to start showing it. While there are still 8 games left to play, this team should NOT finish with a worse record then last years 4-12.

 

There a several different ways for a HC to motivate his team and get the best out of them and Gus just needs to be able to find the one that works with this team, whichever style that might be.

 

I know it's a work in progress, but still, Gus needs to find a way to make sure his team understands they have to cut down on some of the many mistakes and missed opportunities that seem to happen every single game.

 

A team is NEVER going to play mistake free football and that's OK, but he has to make sure they cut down on some of the many mistakes and take advantage of some of those "missed opportunities" that happen every game.

 

So far, all he does is talk about it in the presser following yet another Jags loss, and it hasn't changed anything yet.

 

Maybe it's time for another type of approach, something different, whatever that might be.
