always figure out how to hold people back? is that why UDFAs like pierce and marshall did so well? I mean, yeah 2006 sucked hard, but they were good enough the two years previous... at least good enough so that we can't really use phrases like how they're always terrible.

Yeah, we didn't yield many yards in 04' and 05', but I've always second guessed GW's defense. It always seemed to be vulnerable to big plays and never forced many turnovers (going back to his days in Tennessee).
I clearly blame last season on the coaches, they didn't work together. I'm not at all surprised with the defenses drastic regression when you hear stories about the safeties coach not speaking to the corners coach all season. Someone should have put an end to this before it even begun, this is ridiculous and it obviously had an effect on the team.
Sometimes I think GW lets his arrogance get the best of him...imagine playing for someone who said that he purposely put his players in bad positions to bring them down to earth.
You can refer to the 04' and 05' rankings if you want, but I'm not saying this coaching staff isn't capable, I'm saying that they obviously have some internal problems and changes need to be made (Lindsay was not the problem). I'm clearly saying that they didn't work well together last season and the "scheme" isn't "player friendly".
Is GW's 04' and 05' rankings supposed to secure his job for the rest of his career??? In this league its' all about "what have you done for me lately..."
