I don't if the coach claps, I don't care if he throws his headset in a fit of anger like Holgorsen did at WVU, I don't care if he does a goofy little dance with an umbrella like the saints late owner did on the field, I don't care if he runs out on the field and shoves a picture into the refs pocket before halftime like Cowher did....I just want a HC that can help this team win and get over the hump.

I am a simple man.....I just want a coach that doesnt clap when bad things happen

Give me that and I'll be happy
Agreed. I don’t want to see a bad play happen and our HC clapping like it’s ok. Show me some fire. If a player screws up you don’t have to yell at him but, give him that death stare. I remember when tuna was HC. A player messed up and when he ran by tuna stared at him mad. He wasn’t sure if the player saw him so he followed him to the bench and stood there and stared at him for a minute.

OK....I'll take one who knows how to exploit a teams weakness from week to week. Don't care if he claps himself silly.

It seems lost on many fans that clapping isn't only used for applauding a success. It isn't at all uncommon for it to be a gesture to convey "hey, you need to get your feces together" or "let's straighten that out and do it better next time", or 'let's hustle off the field" or any number of things. It's really a weak complaint against Garrett and has nothing to do with his coaching abilities.

I find it odd so many fans complain about something as meaningless as this when there are tangible, supportable and legitimate issues with Garrett's coaching. Ultimately all anyone really needs to point to is that he hasn't accomplished what he was hired to accomplish, and he has failed to maintain the kind of year after year consistency that would suggest he is on the verge of accomplishing it. The fact that clapping is a gesture he uses isn't even a tiny blip on the radar in comparison.
