Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
I can't tell who is more to blame in the offense Mike or Kyle. Gary was his ace in the past and maybe they could recreate the magic. I for one would like to see the skins on hardknocks for this reason!

I like how everyone thinks this is Kyle's offense. That's cute.

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
I'm not sure whose offense it is. The problem is that it is not being executed.
RG3 is regressing, adjustments aren’t being made and they are forcing the ball to receivers that are not open. I hate when people speak in vague tones. What is the issue? Why does the team look so bad? Enlighten me

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
Our offense reflects what Mike wants it to reflect. Anyone who thinks Big Mike is hands off on offense and lets Kyle just do whatever he wants is fooling themselves. If I had to guess what we see on offense is mostly Mike's offense with a little bit of Kyle mixed in only because Mike lets Kyle make the play calls on game day.

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
In any case the real problem is that our Oline is awful. There's no other way to look at it. They got basically man-handled last night by nobodies. Hell, our 2nd best lineman had to have been Polumbus. Let that sink in. The interior guys looked completely incompetent.

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
The whole scheme sucks now, the WR's lining up as RBs is stupid and doesn't work anymore, I believe it was Mike Ditka this morning but he was saying the Skins Offense has to run gimmick plays to be effective and thats never a good sign.

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
eh I understand that but the Saints turned a whole franchise of losing into a power and TB did it as well under Dungy.

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
Well, if I'm hiring a new head coach, I'm going for Mike Zimmern and hiring McDaniels as my OC.

Does anyone think Shanny gets an extension this offseason?

No. We mutually part ways.

Name me another SB that Walsh won without Montana. Name me another SB that Bellichek won without Brady.

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
I'm trying to make my way through this whole thread and didn't want to say anything until I reached the end but .....
Personally I think the offense has not been that bad. It started out rough and I think with getting our $40 mill to spend will help out a ton. Maybe pick up another top notch WR, pick up a couple "better" OL, and maybe trade Cousins for another draft pick and pick up another "mobile" QB to back up RG3. I might keep Cousins and replace our 3rd stringer with a mobile QB and try and get the Rookie QB up to speed. Now for the BIG issue: DC. I would fire Haslett and replace him with someone other then anyone on the team currently. This is where Allen earns his keep and brings in a really good DC. 3/4, 4/3 I don't care but Haslett needs to go. His defenses ever since he's been here have been mediocre. I'd look for a top quality Special Teams Coordinator as well. Maybe a college coach for that position. On another note, yes I'd extend MS but move him to solely take care of his front office responsibilities and to guide KS. I'd make KS a HC and let him pick his OC. The good news.... the offense is putting up 20 to 30 points a game. Now we need a defense that can stop opponents and a special teams that can limit yardage and a punter that can boom kicks. . |

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
Not sure if blowing it all up and starting over again from a coaching standpoint is the best route however it is hard to ignore stupid penalties, various mental errors, poor execution, and the inability to play 4 complete quarters. Never been a huge fan of Mike Shanahan but looking at his career, isn't this whats happening now the reason he was ran out of Denver? I do think Mike can coach some football, like him or not, the man has coached some of the game's best, been a part of highly successful football operations, and has been around a very long time. We have a very good offense, a trademark of Shanny teams, and he IMO completely screwed up the defense by 1) hiring Haslett, 2) forcing the 3-4 because it was "sexy" at the time. In his last few years in Denver, talented offenses and absolutely terrible defenses.
He has followed suit as well with player acquisitions. He has made some absolutely boneheaded decisions regarding players and coach selections, but has also made some saavy acquisitions as well. I'm okay if he finishes put his contract but am also okay with moving on and if we do decide to move on...it needs to be some one very confident and strong enough of a personality to deal with RGIII. Yes I said it . Love the guy and was ion cloud nine when we picked him and watched him lead us last year. With that said, he has slightly gotten on my nerves beginning with the campaign to play week one. He is starting to come of as a bit of a prima dona IMO. If we move on, in really would like to a Mike Tomlin or Tom Coughlin type of coach who will lay the law down and establish a culture of both nastiness and killer instinct. I dare say it...but...a Rex Ryan type would be a great fit. He completely annoys me but watching a few Jets games his players play like they would run through a brick wall for the guy...
