Did you catch this article?

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...2004Mar24.html

Here's some highlights

Quote:
"After watching Steve Spurrier operate and now watching this,'' one team official said, "it's like night and day.''
Quote:
Spurrier's shortcomings as an NFL coach were on display from the outset. His practices were loosely run. He spent most of his time hanging out by the quarterbacks. He could be seen chatting with visitors or trying to bounce footballs off the ground and catch them when special-teams drills were being conducted. He regularly couldn't recall the names of his defensive players. When Redskins players received their game plan on Wednesdays during the season, more often than not they were surprised by what it lacked rather than amazed by what it contained.
Quote:
Only then was it clear, in retrospect, that it hadn't been about a learning curve and Spurrier didn't have anything up his sleeve. He had been overmatched from the outset, unwilling to put in the hours and make the changes to his way necessary for him to succeed in the NFL.
