That's a little more cliche than true don't ya think?
4 games with 17 pts (0-4)(the minimum to consider a winning score)
3 games with 20-29(1-2)
2 games with 30+ (1-1)
so we were 2 -7 in those 9 games. (we won once with 16 and once with 9)
I am not claiming we were an offensive powerhouse, but the claim that our O "never scores enough points" is not true either
People not liking this choice, and I really am on the fence about Haslett, but not about going outside of the organization(ie not Gray), need to consider the options available, I saw Romeo, but he was going to KC, no doubt at all, Zimmer - Cincinatti had a week grace before we could even talk to him, and apparently they said the right things, so that leaves us with Gray, Haslett, Jauron -but I don't think he is coaching this year, and a few other non-established guys. I can live with Haslett only because there is no dynamo out there.
