Mike Singletary Fired

[BleedBurgundy]

Singletary was completely over his head as a head coach. He went right from position coach (LB) to HC. Needs some time as a coordinator. Not sure he's as much of an X's and O's guy as he is a motivational speaker.

i think andy reid went from position coach to head coach. some guys can do it and i though mike s. was going to be a great hc. i think his old school ways kind of did him in. all that getting in the players faces and berating them doesn't work in todays nfl. also i remember reading that his practices were a mess. very unorganized and messy. john gruden will be their next head coach.

I truly understand where everyone is coming from, because there is no stability here. But Honestly Do you all think Shanahan will be here for over 3 years??? No.. With the talent this team has, we will continue to be an under .500 team for the next couple of years. And if you think Danny Boy is just gonna sit and let that happen. Whew, yall have something coming. As the stadium continues to have more and more empty seats due to the losing season. Danny Boy will make a splash move to get people back in the seats.

Yup, not saying it can't be done, but saying that he needs more time before he's ready. He needs to see if he can be a successful coordinator before trying to run the show again, reason being that when that motivational nonsense starts to fall on deaf ears, the players have to be able to trust that you can formulate a winning strategy. Competence begets confidence.
