Good lord.Amari's a quiet dude, so he hasn't said much all year, but he's dropped a few gems since the Philly game.
Exhibit A (OT Touchdown)
So, with the game on the line, Linehan called a play that everyone in the world saw coming. If that had been an interception, everyone would have blamed Dak, obviously.
Exhibit B (75 Yard Touchdown)
So Linehan called three stop routes, in a row, for Amari.
Add to that all the other receivers that have trashed Linehan in the past, whether it's Dez, Butler, Hurns, Beasley, etc.
This guy has to go, and I don't know how the management is so foolish as to let this to continue.
I want linehan gone but I see this more of players seeing something and adjusting
I don’t see it as him taking a shot at little Scotty
A vet player like cooper knows what will work
Maybe the OC should ask them what they think sometimes
Linehan is trash. Megatron made him look good, and he still never won anything.
I agree, but he shouldn't be going public with it. Needs to keep it in house.Amari's a quiet dude, so he hasn't said much all year, but he's dropped a few gems since the Philly game.

if sniffing and playing were spliffing and snorting we'd all be stoned at ChristmasYeppers! I can see where it could easily be construed in such vectored fashion
*SHEESE, If a 24 y.o. Professional Footballer' KID can easily sniff out the perpetual LAMENESS of offensive plague,,, IN such short order?
Good lord.
Linehan is not leaving.
Especially if the team makes the playoffs.
And extra especially if we win in the playoffs.
The coaches jobs are secure.
Did you ever actually play the sport in an organized way?
Plays get changed all the time.
On the LOS
On the sidelines
In the huddle..
the play breaks down and you improvise.
Want to blame Linehan then go ahead.
But it does not work that way.
Players modify plays.
They rarely speak about it so as not to tip off anybody.
Coop said they would have to change the hand signal now that it is talked about.
Instead of obsessing on getting Linehan fired..
keep praying our players are heady enough to take initiative at the right time.
I agree, but he shouldn't be going public with it. Needs to keep it in house.
Thats not the problem. The problem is that everyone knows what were running. There is no deviation to changes made to compensate for a heavy pass rush. Nothing, nada, zilche.
This is the major reason why Linehan needs to be replaced now. And take that crappy playbook with him.
My writing partner is a Lions fan and that's the only thing he can hold over me and he does so with a poop-eating grin every time.Good, Linehan needs to go.
I've been saying this for months.The playcalling and scheme is the number one reason we do so poorly on offense. It's also the number one reason that is holding this team back.
It's not skill or talent. But the busted brains of both Garrett and Linehan. Who think by running the same play over and over again, will create a different result.

Thats AMARAAAAAAAAAA. Funny man"When he calls out your scheme cause it's hurting the team, that Amari!"
It would have to be a complete blowout.We've won five in a row and pretty much wrapped up the East, so I think he's already safe.
Maybe if the offense lays an egg in the playoffs, Jerry will fire him, but I think it would take a loss where we are not competitive, and the defense is going to keep us competitive.
WELL,NOW!If you don't think there's a problem with play calling then I don't know what to tell you....the scheme AND play calling is about as unimaginative and poor as anyone could come up with. When my 6 year old son can call out what play is coming next well...you've got a serious problem. If my 6 year old can do it don't you think the team we're playing knows as well? No excuse for this kind of crap. We run less misdirection than almost any team in the league, even if we did the same type of stuff but incorporated a lot more misdirection it'd help a ton.
