Quote:Oesher really isnt a yes man. I was able to meet and chat with him and JP when they were up here in Indy for the draft and he IS optimistic but also realistic in saying that he doesn't expect the team to be in the playoffs and that ideally you want to see .500 at best to show progress in the right direction. He said that Gabbert did not work on his stuff in the off-season whereas Blake has been pretty much non-stop since January. And the O-line being in the gym all off-season so far as well.  

 

 

I never saw him as a yes man, just that he goes over the top with being "the voice of reason" to the point where you can predict exactly what he's going to say at all times.  Like a movie you already know the ending to.  Contrast that to somebody like O'Halloran, who gets constantly bashed on these boards, but yet always has a unique perspective.
