Judgments on the coaching staff

[CarolinaSock]

Offensive Coordinator Jeff Davidson :thumbsup:

Defensive Coordinator Mike Trgovac :banghead:

Secondary Coach Tim Lewis :confused5:

Special Teams Coach Danny Crossman :banghead:

Quarterback Coach Mike McCoy :banghead:

I'm not really sure what to make of Lewis. Gamble has gotten better since he arrived, but Marshall and Lucas seem to be getting worse.

Offensive Coordinator Jeff Davidson :thumbsup: not crazy about cards game but i don't know whose fault the playcalling was. he gets a pass. i really like him, though.

Defensive Coordinator Mike Trgovac must go. no question.

Secondary Coach Tim Lewis must go. no question.

Special Teams Coach Danny Crossman :toetap05: much improved over previous years. fixed the blocked punt problem. should be flogged for a couple head scratchers during the last saints game. i want him around for next year, though.

Quarterback Coach Mike McCoy :toetap05: i want to see if he can help jake look for other receivers. i'm holding off judgement. right now not happy. have him work with jake and some of the receivers in the offseason to get them in tune.

Offensive Coordinator Jeff Davidson :hurray:

Defensive Coordinator Mike Trgovac :out:

Secondary Coach Tim Lewis :leaving:

Special Teams Coach Danny Crossman :idea:

Quarterback Coach Mike McCoy :eek6:

What about offensive line and Defensive line. I cant remember there names but they are coaches too right. Also dont forget RB coach.

I think OL coach Dave Magazu has done a great job, considering the injuries and constant line shuffles we had throughout the season. They've paved the way for one of the best rushing attacks in the League. With the exception of Mike McCoy (can we get a REAL QB COACH, please?), the offensive staff has done well and should stay intact.

Not sure about DL Sal Sunseri; our overall defensive scheme and playcalling is atrocious, so it may be hard to judge him accurately regarding his individual performance. IMO the whole defensive staff should be looking for work b/c we start out the season playing very good, but went to hell in a handbasket after the bye week and the defense has regressed steadily overall since Trgocrap has taken over.

Special Teams IMO has improved over last year, with Rhys Lloyd leading the NFL in touchbacks, one of the more reliable PK and P in John Kasay and Jason Baker. The coverage units have improved; the only thing we're missing is a legitimate threat in the return game. Mark Jones has been efficient and reliable, but nothing to write home about. I say Crossman gets a pass for another year.

Offensive Coordinator Jeff Davidson - UP

Defensive Coordinator Mike Trgovac - Sucks donkey di...

Secondary Coach Tim Lewis - DOWN

Special Teams Coach Danny Crossman - DOWN, improved this year, however

Quarterback Coach Mike McCoy - IF Moore has improved as much as Zod says he has, up.

After losing in the playoffs like the way the Panthers did, there must be someone who loses his job. This year that person need to be Mike Trgovac.

Our defense has become stale and predictable. That is when you know its time to make that change.

My own answers:

Offensive Coordinator Jeff Davidson - still learning, but thumbs up for the moment

Defensive Coordinator Mike Trgovac - down, and hopefully out

Secondary Coach Tim Lewis - unsure; don't want him promoted, but can't justify firing him either

Special Teams Coach Danny Crossman - cautiously optimistic; the light may have finally come on

Quarterback Coach Mike McCoy - down, but in fairness I'm a longtime critic

OC - Davidson - thumbs UP (besides for the playoff game, he ran a good mix of play calling this season.)

DC - Trgovac - two thumbs DOWN and if i had to say maybe hopefully down and out.

secondary - lewis - SIDEWAYS - hard to say if it's his fault or trgovac, so iffy on this one. Gamble has become a better player under him even with our scheme, on top of that lucas and marshall have both had multiple good years under him.

ST - Crossman - UP - for this one season - jones had good return averages on both punt and kickoff's we lead the league in kickoff position for opponents. and usually had good coverage. Hard to argue with that.

QB coach - McCoy - Down - we can't develop qb's or fix their problems even if the problems are small. Delhomme as gotten worse each of the last couple of years.

I thought those early punt snafus were the nail in Crossman's coffin, but they never recurred and Mark Jones made him look a lot better by season's end.

Speaking of special teams coaches, caught this on KFFL...

Patriots | O'Brien a candidate for special teams job

Mike Reiss, of the Boston Globe, reports Denver Broncos special teams coach Scott O'Brien is considered a candidate for the New England Patriots vacant special teams coaching position.

with most teams it probably would've been the nail in the coffin, but we all know how foxie is with his players and coaches. loyal to the bitter end. Heck i'm pretty sure if he wasn't forced into it we would still have henning as OC.
