That is fantastic!! Now the fans are the problem!!

What gets me is Mike is so ready to put it on the players. I listened to him last week and he said several times this is where vets step up and rally the team. What...the...hell...does he think his job is?

Given the last three games it's painfully obvious Mike has lost this team, and deservedly so.

For those that say a coaching change would hurt us..

Look at TB, Indianapolis, Miami

You miss the point entirely. It's debatable whether Mike has built a more talented roster than the one he inherited, but the debate is irrelevant. He doesn't win regardless.

Truthfully, that's ANY fan base. They are all spastic erratic kids. (like Dan Snyder)

The thing to avoid is having Kyle leave to take another position next year, changing systems, and then having to conclude what we already know about Mike in 2013, forcing another system change in 2014.

Just accept the inevitable, and get the long term solution in here. One change, get it right.
Truer words....

- London (he needs some scheme help in that he shouldn't ever be covering 1 on 1 on the edges, but London is still a monster in middle run stopper and actually has great ball skills as a zone cover guy in the middle)
- Kerrigan
- Bowen

Defense as it should be, in a 4-3 scheme, would add another top 5 in that Cofield will make an excellent d tackle.








:yeahright

Dallas hasn't won a playoff game in longer sessions then us..

You can't throw teams up for a positive and not expect the same negative reaction. You cannot compare one team to another. Coaches go from one team to another and be successful, and sometimes don't.

It's not a fair analogy to assume if we dump Shanny and pick up all these available winning coaches on the market that we will win a SB.

I'm not a Shanny lover, but he said 5 years and i'll give him his 5 years.

Maybe we don't need to go after a big name coach?
