Quote:I think the coaching blunders have been over-rated because we've been losing.

And we've been losing them so close that a ball-bounce the other way in many of those games... a flag or a call, or a kick or a replay away... and we're not putting Gus under the microscope.

 

His track record is awful. 11-30 or something...

 

But THIS year is the year to really look at. To see the improvement, not just in players but the coach. The players buy in... if you take away what they are buying into, don't you take away the good players?

 

They are winning dude. Close ugly games. No one should expect this team to blow out anyone this year. The coach can only do so much and he's doing it. He's getting this thing turned around his way. Sorry he isn't mad enough for you. He doesn't chastise people on the podium.

He might actually be a good coach that has some growing pains just like our QB, and young receivers...

He has switched coaching staffs before to make a chance on offense and it worked. Maybe he reassesses the D this offseason and makes some changes.

 

He is human. And a first time HC. And you want to get rid of him after he builds something up, that all these guys believe in, and you want some Barry Switzer mother trucker to roll thru and get the glory?

 

HA!

 

Hey remember when people said we got the wrong guy from Seattle and we shoulda got Quinn cuz he won right away with an already all-star ATL team? And then they lose like 4 of 5, and are dead last in the league in sacks..........

I don't care what he looks like on the podium, if he yells or not, if he's mad or not; those things are on the surface. What I want is a team that looks prepared to play with a solid game plan. Thus far this team doesn't do that and I'm not sure that Gus knows how to take that next step. The team plays hard for him even when they stink, and that is to his credit. I think we are very fortunate with the schedule this year and that the quality of the competition is hiding the warts on this team. I also think that most are happy to be average after the dumpster fire the last 8 years have been. How long will we be happy to be average if average is Gus's plateau as I believe it is? I was just as into the game last night as everyone else was, and I was happy that they won too. And then I remembered that we barely beat the tittians and that brings us back to reality.

 

So eat, drink and be merry; for tomorrow brings a new opportoonie.
