Because Shashi stripped it bare...and with 3 drafts equivenlent of high picks, still hasnt hit on one single difference maker....let alone the 15 he actually needs.... I'm aware he's stripped it bare. And I'm in support of that. What I'm not in support of is blaming the HC for not being able to win with that handicap.

Mudfly Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 I think a lot of us believe we would win more games with a different coach....today would be an example...does not mean the rebuild ends....shashi can keep trading back and selecting massive quantities of shitty players, but at least we might have someone who knows what to do with them,....where to play them....how to develop them.....and how to call a game...and which players to play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggins7919 Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 I really can't stand when fans do the whole "we need to fire the coach!" rant, but even I have to say something is very wrong. And I get what Hue is trying to say about execution. If Kizer doesn't toss the pitch at Crow's feet, maybe he gets in, or gets the first. But anybody who watches "option football" knows that there's a MUCH higher chance of fumbling the ball, and doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why. My two biggest issues are the playcalling on 2nd and goal from the 3, and then the 4th down attempt. When we had 2nd down, we had been running quite well. You have to figure we had a good chance at getting in the end zone if we ran it three times from there, right? Or here's an idea, why don't we try a QB draw? I literally JUST SAW Brissett run that play again today, and we all know he ran it in on us. It's a safe play, there's low chance of turnover, and a pretty low chance of taking a nasty hit. Whenever I see that play run, the QB just waltzes right on in. You think WE could try that? The 4th down attempt was even MORE puzzling, and I can't defend it at all. I can't even come up with a good explanation. Your defense played lights out all day. You're down THREE points. Even though our idiot kicker missed his two previous kicks, you HAVE to figure he'd make that one, right? Then the game is tied up, and it's basically anybody's match to win or lose. And not only that, but you chose to run a straight ahead running play? We didn't need 6 inches, we needed two freaking yards. And I realize that Crow is our more powerful back, but Duke has the ability to jump over the pile, and that might've been enough for a first down. He goes off the ground, and then lands on top of the pile. First down more than likely. I just can't fathom the decision making, and it will be the undoing of our coach. The problem is, this isn't anywhere NEAR the first time something like this has happened! Here's the example I keep coming back to: Remember last year during our final game, when we had the ball at about the one yard line, and all we had to do to beat the Steelers was score a TD? You remember what Hue called? The ridiculous WR screen to Hawkins that lost about 8 yards. The same play that we've tried to run a million times, with no success. With the game on the line, Hue called THAT play. How many times has he done this? How many times have we questioned the clock management? He's completely terrible at calling plays when we need a play the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingfooldoug Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 It may be sophistry and it is certainly suckage on a grand scale. The grandest. It puts a tear in my eye at the perfection they put into suck. Keep em all, why bother starting over again,? It's just gonna stink more. I heard Donovan and Dieken at the end. They really earned their paycheck there. Glad I went fishing and missed most of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, changing the head coach doesn't mean 'starting over'. It doesn't mean we scratch this rebuild and start a new one. We can still develop the mostly crappy players we draftd over the last couple of years. Just with a hc who hasnt proven himself to lose 90% of his nfl games. So let another coach come in and lose all the games? At some point, you gotta stop firing coaches and instead think about aquiring talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we started Hogan today I think we come away with a W Perhaps, but Hogan has proven that he can set the other team up to score as well as he does for the Browns. Both games he's played this year: Set the world on fire in his first drive only to throw a horrible interception the next drive or so that practically gives the other team a TD. That being said, Hogan should be the starter now. He won't be, but I don't know what Kizer is learning from this. He's regressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 1 hour ago, stillmotion said: 3) Hue seems almost delusional. He defends his playcalling and blames it all on the "execution", say that was the sole reason we lost the game. Although I'm not a huge supporter of Hue's inside the 5 yard line play-calling, he does have a point. Keizer made a terrible pitch to Crow down there. He was too caught up in the moment and did not let himself think clearly about what he was doing. And the pass that was intercepted down near the goal line should never have been thrown. Perhaps Keizer didn't see the defender that was moving up on the receiver...but he really should have because he wasn't hiding. Again, I'm not a big fan of Hue's play calling down near the goal line, but the QB has to execute better than that wherever they are on the field.

Mudfly Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 but, due to his execution issues(which have been apparent all season) his coaches also gotta do thngs to simplify his game....and if he cant execute simple options and passes, then he should not be a starting NFL qb...plain and simple...

He did not shy away from Brady one bit. and we need someone with some heart, someone with some balls, someone with a burning desire to win. When I watched Hue's presser It was the look of a man defeated. He said, "If someone else can call plays better, I'd welcome him with open arms" or something of that sort. Jimmy and Sashi wanted a "Yes Man". Hue is a great guy and obviously the players love him. But is he hard enough on them? If your workers do a shitty job, do you reward them? Or do they get yelled at. Could Hue the baby lamb call out Britt for lack of effort? No, He said Britt was "injured". hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
