Gibbs needs to be fired!!!

htownskinfan · 10-31-2004, 07:47 PM

just kidding,but I'm so fckin pissed right now I cant stand it,I cant believe Gibbs is sticking with Brunell another week. This is one time I wish Snyder would interfere and say coach have you lost your fcking mind? The season is over and Gibbs is as much to blame as anybody,he should have never signed Brunell,and he should have set him down 3 weeks ago,if it wasnt for the defense this team would be 0-7,some offensive genius we got

One of the worst plays of the day, was the on-side kick after halftime. What was the Coach thinking? We just scored before the half, so there was no need to rush. Instead Green Bay kicks a field goal. The other call that had me puzzled was the 3rd and 1 play in the first quarter. Brunell throws a high screen pass to Coles who almost drops the ball only to lose two yards and the possesion of the ball. Where's Ladell Betts on short yardage downs?

Haven't we been complaining about the lack of trick plays?

Hello guys this is a desperate 2-5 team, these are the kinds of things you have to do. Going for it on 4th and long, trying a squib kick, etc.

I'm all for trying anything to give the team a spark. When it pays off you're a genius, when it doesn't everyone is an armchair QB who has the ultimate gameplan/starting lineup that would lead us to 16-0.

We have called for trick plays but damn this offense can get a first down on 4th and 21 but can't seem to score more than 14 points in a game. Something's got to give.

One trick play (Gardner and Portis) is not going to get it done. The entire playbook has to be used. Desperation has set in.

I liked the onside kick, we should have gotten it

Old Man Gibbs is a figurehead. He always had great assistants and great players. Now, he just has the coaching, and it's being exposed he ain't that great. Mark is the only guy on the field that really wants it, but one player can't beat 11 other guys.

just ridiculous

Actually, I liked the Onside kick. I liked it alot actually. You could see that we caught a ton of those guys offgaurd, and the one guy who we didnt catch, was in the right position. I'm not gonna get on coach about that call, I really liked it.

This must be a joke...No one could be this clueless.

If Gibbs always had such great players then why is Riggins his only HOF player 12 years after his retirement?

Interesting games let's contrast Gibbs and Parcells.......Parcells being embarrassed over the team's losing streak threw everything at the Lions...trick plays etc. Meanwhile Gibbs goes plain Manila. Now it could be due to the new offensive linemen and TE. But especially coming off a bye week I expected more innovation. The defense was short handed and didn't give up and grabbed some turnovers to help the offense. Maybe Williams needs to try his hand at offensive play calling (just kidding). But I wouldn't fire Joe just give him more time and a draft................be patient it will take another year before we can see a big improvement.

You guys are all very naive. Go ahead and continue to think that this old man is still a good coach.
