*probably*
*maybe*

people put a lot of "hate" into things that are not certain.

The sunshine pumpers can deny it all they want, but if we go 6-10 dropping our last 4 games in a row...............going to be a hard sell to keep Red Ball.


Now I am not saying it is a given he is going to be fired, all I am saying is that if we lose out and go 6-10 its going to be very, very, very difficult for Jerry to sell the fans the idea that Garrett is the guy to fix this mess.


Most fans are not going to be very receptive to the idea of Garrett coming back if we lose out. I know I am not going to be blowing C-notes at Jerry World if Garrett is still on the sideline next year if we tank out.

If more fans would quit putting money in Jerry's pocket via merchandise and tickets, it may get his attention. I know I will not spend a dime on this team until we either make a coaching change or start having success under Garrett. Since I have a lot of doubt we will ever have success under Garrett based on what I have seen, then it will more than likely take a coaching change for me to open my wallet!

If we lose all 16 the following season, it'll be even tougher to justify bringing him back next year. Can you imagine what that would be like, after losing 20 straight?

Hello SETX neighbor.
I suspect that if of "fans" stop buying gear and tickets it wont even be noticed. The brand itself is just so popular it will always huge numbers. Jerry world is the place to be on Sundays, I imagine that half of those at the game, buying the crap, dont keep up with the team on any kind of a regular basis.

Also, a little off topic, but there must have been some real hardcore fans there last week. I was pleased with how loud the crowd got.

I completely missed the game last week. I had to fly to Virginia for a business trip. My flight left late Sunday. First game I have not watched or at least listened to on the radio that I can remember.

BTW- Where do you live?

No kidding, how would you be privy to anything that goes on behind the scenes? lol I like how people speak like they are actually on the team.

I think he's being sarcastic. At lease I hope he is.

BTW, you still may get Sean Payton before it's all over with. There are reports from Jim Henderson the voice of the Saints that SP will not be back.

Who knows.....

Please make this happen. No offense, but we want our guy back that we should have never let leave.

Doesn't mean it isn't happening. Every once in a while, you might get a coach to bad mouth a former boss, but it's rare. The NFL is a pretty tight knit fraternity, and most don't want to get a reputation as someone who likes to burn bridges, especially when the guy paid him millions of dollars.

Listen to Jerry's radio interviews, when they get around to talking about players and their roles. Very often it's "I". "I" like this player in this role, "I" envision so-and-so doing that. It's rarely "we".

Word is Chargers may get rid of Rivers too.

Do you think he's better than Romo? I don't. I thought it was interesting though, that Rivers has almost the same numbers as Rapistburger in almost 2 entire seasons less games (backup for Brees)

Stats are misleading. Its clear that his offense isnt working as it should.

Maybe the better question is with Norv and Jason both looking like clowns, is the air coryell irrelevant?
