Quote:You're entitled to your opinion on McArthur. Mine is different. That's not pertinent to the topic.


 

But my main point stands. Gus keeps rushing the passer with just four players, as if he had the 2012 Seahawks roster.


 

The whole "buck stops here" comment was not meant to claim that being a head coach is remotely equivalent to being President; it was to point out that if the stupid decisions made in running the defense were from Babich (or any other coach under Gus) then Gus is still ultimately responsible for the end result
.* Gus chose Babich. Gus chose to keep Babich when he fired Fisch. Gus has the power to overrule Babich.

 

* At least that's how I would have meant it, I didn't make the original comment.

that's back to "do the best you can with what you have" thing again...Gus's whole defensive scheme depends on the LEO position,4 down linemen, and and OTTO, of which he doesn't have good enough people to perform the roles on a consistent basis (yet), so he "has to do the best he can with what he has"...which as I already said, sometimes the best you have isn't good enough , and that's exactly where the Jags are right now...
