He hasn't practiced calling plays or game planning in many years.

do you consistantly apply that to all coordinators who have been position coaches for the same time frame?

it is a talent driven league. Shula did what Dungy wanted....and they won games.

Realistically, what would a really good OC done in Shula's position in Tampa given the talent and HC?

i would say it depends on if they are proven failures in that capacity or not.

Scored more than 9 points a game and not be completely out coached the majority of the time.

with the gameplan Dungy required and a weak cast.....how many pts per game should he have had his offense putting up? Dungy dictated what they did and when....

How exactly do you score tons of points when your best weapon is a FB and Dungy wanted the D to win the game.

and if he wasn't completely out coached the majority of games they would of lost more than they won. If John Fox told Davidson to run a draw in X situation and the opposing team knows the call......that wasn't Davidson being outcoached.

who is he cutting without Genttleman's opinion? His staff? HC builds his staff....Hurney made the right call letting Rivera bring in Chud. You don't hire a HC and then have a GM appoint who his staff is....Gantt is off base there. His opinion on RR awhile back slants all his writing now.

I'd agree that complaining about letting a head coach pick his staff is off-base. The vast majority of head coaches are allowed to do that, and why shouldn't they be?

Honestly, you have no clue on what you are speaking. You saw 0 of the games. Everything you are spewing now is second hand information spun into a semi positive light. Cut it out.

Shula was absolutely HORRID and he was despised 10 times more than any Carolina coach has been.

So then you would have to be claiming Tampa did not have a weak offensive team from a talent standpoint? Dungy didn't dictate what he wanted from his offense....and the emphasis wasn't on playing not to lose offense putting it in the hands of his highly paid and talented defense?
