Why the backstabbing?

Matty - I've been critical of Spurrier too and said he needed to make some changes. Here are the main reasons.

Both coaches didn't TOUCH the defense. They left it up to their respective coordinators. Spurrier didn't get much help from Edwards (Lewis did a better job, but not like Williams), yet Spurrier scored more points per game, which was supposed to be what both coaches would do. I'm not totally tossing out his credentials, but is it or is it not a totally different game now? I mean, he knows his stuff, but the style of play has changed.

I've heard so many times how Gibbs was the master of half-time adjustments. Please name one critical half time adjustment Gibbs made this year? I saw our defense change after half-time, but never our offense. He seems to be a bit too stubborn to try something. I'm not saying Gibbs can't figure it out, but I feel like he's getting too much of a free pass.

The media thus far has been very soft on Gibbs, I'm curious if we go through more offensive struggles like we did last year if they'll continue to be that kind. Gibbs offense last year I'm shocked beat any other teams. Just watching it made me get sick to my stomach. Uninspired playcalling, and absolutely handcuffing Ramsey, we won't even talk about the Brunell era.

I want to see more innovation, more defensive spreading, and more fun from the skins. I don't care if we run the ball a lot, I rather like that. It's getting uber conservative with 15 minutes left to go and 7 points ahead. That's not going to hold it. Throw the ball some, spread the defense out with 4 WRs and run it. I feel we have A LOT of really solid talent on our Oline. Samuels, Jansen, Thomas, and Steven Seagal stunt double can push their man. How about we force them to take 8 out of the box and let Portis take it to the next level. I want some mixed up playcalling. Even opposing teams were talking about how easy the skins offense was to predict. When I heard players from other teams in the media they talked about being scared about what Spurrier could do, yet to hear anything like that about Gibbs.
