A Coach HAS to be the next casualty

Aah! Reaction time

It may be just a scapegoat at the moment but this game was on the coaches and someone needs to go.  The bad thing--This organization does not have the gall to make it Shula (yet)  

@KB_fan or a stat junkie needs to somehow find out rankings for teams when they are leading because we flee the second we get one, it's been like this since Ron took over.  Something like an opponent's scoring % after an own score.  I guarantee we are in the bottom-5 the last 4+ years running in that category.  Even when our D plays a great game (for 90% of it) this still happens.  

As much as a gambler he projected himself to be, we deflate as a team when we should gain freaking momentum.  Ron and Mike have not learned and it's year 5 with these two as HC-OC.  I'm done.  6 with Ron.  We have no ability to capitalize on momentum and only did last year bc of Cam and the defensive turnovers.  

I understand DA played awful and we were missing a whole lot but honest--the OL was formidable, the RBs great, and Olsen was unstoppable minus the drop, and the safeties rebounded.  

The culture they care so much about has melted away and teams like the Vikings and Raiders clearly got the itch we had last season.  You can visibly see how upset Luke, TD, Shaq, and Fozzy have become and they seem to be the only ones giving a f*ck.  

Undisciplined and uninspired football falls on coaching.  They need to start falling on their own swords.  I'm not waiting for a turnaround, these are things that they should have learned and not resurface annually.  

Final note: Good teams don't let things fall apart before making big changes.  I hope we learned from Foxball.

I'm at the final straw with Ron.  I swear we've been a game or two away from firing him twice in his career.  

I'd give Ron an ultimatum by the end of quarter 2 in the season.  If this continues after Cam returns, fire Shula, then Ron.  Promote Wilks to HC (the true heart of the coaching staff IMO) and promote Dorsey/Proehl/someone who gives a f*ck.

I don't want to win 5 meaningless games at the end of the season to save him this year.

Exactly.  We're not at the juncture of his tenure where this is acceptable.  We are defining a SB hangover to a tee and then some.

That doesn't sound too bad. Our scheme isn't whats bad. It the coaches coaching the scheme. Right now we have poor scheme coaches at the helm. We need the good ones. Nothing drastic. Just ones that are actually competent and know what the hell they're doing.

again me wishing mike shula accidentally takes the wrong exit on the interstate and ends up at a pottery barn and falls so in love with kitschy crafting he has to resign as OC because he wants to commit full time to selling furniture made out of recycled wooden pallets on etsy

    • Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.  
    • I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.
    • Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
