Accountability

[SouperMeister]

While it's admirable how hard the players have continued to play, I sense that the coaches send mixed messages when it comes to players doing their jobs. Carlos Rogers blows a coverage on a double move and gets benched. Last season, he played arguably the best football of his career in the first 8 games, and was benched after making a few bad plays. Laron Landry regularly makes undisciplined plays, late hits, blown coverages, bad angles, missed tackles due to poor technique, etc. As an aside, Landry makes an ass of himself at least twice a game, bringing attention to himself after making a routine tackle.

I'm tired of the coaches protecting some players while dogging others. Take Suisham - name a kick of any significance that he's made this year. Yet coaches tolerate his short kickoffs, some of which have even gone out of bounds. Put Suisham in to make a big kick with the game on the line, and the results have been spotty at best.

I fully expect Zorn to come to the conclusion that he's so pissed at Landry's play that Carlos Rogers must be benched again when Hall comes back.

Whomever our next coach ends up being, I hope that he brings more of a consistent sense of accountability and consequences for not doing your job.
