I'm not blaming Shula

[Jeremy Igo]

Shula is a bad offensive coordinator this year. Shula was a bad offensive coordinator last year. Shula has always been a bad offensive play caller.

Don't blame a guy for being what he has always been. Blame the guys that put him in that position and downgraded his personnel all while expecting a positive result.

We had our chance to change, instead we went the cheaper route and extended Shula.

Is that all on Rivera, or more our FO as a whole?

This is how I feel about guys on the OL. It's not their fault they're being asked to do something they aren't capable of

If you blame Gettleman around these parts, you're immediately flamed.

IIRC Hurney was the GM at the time that decision was made and Rivera has lost me now.

 

edit: nevermind im confusing my years

Last year hue jackson interviewed. Shula was kept as consistency.

I remember when Shula was appointed OC, you made it clear it was a bad choice Zod

That was actually Ron's call, when he promoted Shula, instead of hiring Hue Jackson.

The turning point for this organization was giving Rivera a contract through 2017 for big money.

That comes straight from the top.

Rivera is comfortable with Shula as an OC as Rivera doesn't have big picture skills and he demonstrates it in many ways every Sunday.

Ugh I know I was just thinking that today. Gettleman hasn't lost me because he has done some good things along with some bad things, sure. He has done more good than bad. I hate the way he left this Oline to be what it is. I have a feeling Rivera believed in Shula though.

Agreed Jeremy, but the problem is, I have been indicting Gettleman all year and the majority give him a pass.

 

The only reason I bring up Shula's job now is because our franchise does have a habit of creating "sacrificial lambs" to quell the masses from getting at those truly responsible.

We all know Gettleman is the problem, and we know that he isn't going anywhere. Somebody other than the players need to be held accountable for this season.

And?

It was Gettleman who decided to keep Bell and Chandler. It was Gettleman who decided signing Roman Harper was a good idea. It was Gettleman who tagged Hardy.

There's plenty of blame to go around, and Gettleman gets his share.

Starting to think the FO prefers this style of offense. Henning, Davidson, Shula....all the same.
