DMN Blog: Wade Phillips grilling about to begin

[Chief]

Are you listening, Jerry?

I don't think he's capable.

 

[Real1st]

I gotta ask, who is the gal?

Alison Stokke


She's a beauty

What's the big deal DB it's not like Stewart does anything anyway.

 

[Yoshimitsu]

Why Stewart is still on this staff is mind boggling. He just collects paychecks. We all know he doesn't do anything.

exactly, so why have him here...get someone who is capable of doing something other than being the doughnut go-fer for Wade and Jerruh

 

[Word Mofo]

He also strongly hinted we'd try to run the ball more and have a tougher mentality on running the ball when he was talking about the three good RBs we have. Said it would cut down on turnovers, too.

As we've all discussed a million times, this is something we definitely need to do.

Also said getting rid of some so-called star players would be on the table, as everything would be.

To his credit, he said he didn't even want to talk about Super Bowl when we just lost 44-6. Are you listening, Jerry?

This actually sounds very encouraging to me. We abandon the run so quickly it makes Andy Reid's hair stand up.

Plus, once again, we return to the subject of accountability. The guy's defense get's killed, he gets demoted, he his role is reduced to nothing....

...and he still has a job.

Wade can spout off about "changing things" all he wants, nothing is going to change and here is Exhibit A.

It should, but for whatever reason Barber turned into a fumbler this yr, and the OL cant sustain blocks long enough to gain positive yds often enough to continue running

As we've all discussed a million times, this is something we definitely need to do.

It's a necessity now, because we cant win with the way the QB is playing. He cannot be the focal point of the offense any longer, not until he improves his ability to read defenses, starts throwing the ball accurately again and avoiding those painfully stupid turnovers...

Also said getting rid of some so-called star players would be on the table, as everything would be.

A few guys are going to leave via free agency, but other than them letting Roy Williams go (38, who had absolutely zero to do with this yrs debacle anyway) I dont see who else he could be referring to.

I cant give him credit for anything right now. Had he resigned because he did such a lousy job this yr (and especially the last two games) then I'd have given him credit for that.

they usually abandon it because they dont gain positive yds on enough plays...if you constantly run the ball for 1 yd or a loss on first down, its tough to stick with it

Are you watching a different team? We've run the ball very well lately. We were stuffing it down the Ravens throat, then our idiot coordinator calls a bootleg out of a 2 TE set with both receivers running deep routes against a defense that was play 30 yards deep the entire drive.

I like Wade...I do too, but more as a DC. Don't think he can win the brass ring as HC (anytime soon anyway) w/out an authoritative figure directly above him. He needs a "bad guy" to his "good guy", maybe in a similar role that Parcells has in Miami.

We had a task master and he didnt do any better...
Parcells did not, but Jimmy did.

Now we have a coach that is ho hum....
Dungy ho-hum is different from Wade ho-hum, just saying. Discipline, and accountability, is the crucial variable.

Players need to be accountable....so do the assistants. Agreed, on both.

IMHO Houch wont be back and I hope the ST coach wont either.
Agree wholeheartedly with Read, not so much on Houck. Sparano sucked his first year as OL coach for this team too. Now he is considered a God around here. Think of the available options first before doing something so hasty. Houck is proven, I say give him another year.

Romo needs rededicate himself to football again.....his hunger is gone and yesterday he played scared. I can agree to this, but he needs more discipline moreso than "hunger" IMO. Perhaps a better QB coach to get in his ear_like Lee (now w/Miami) did early in his career. Wade Wilson has been a failure everywhere he's been.

lets hope he does it.....if not...

Romo = Scott Mitchell.

Ouch. I would not go quite that far.

Choice was averaging 5.1 pc down the stretch, and we still couldnt drop the running game fast enough.

 

[Oh_Canada]

He actually said Stewart is coming back??? Must be good at washing everyone's underwear.

 

[bootsy]

It should, but for whatever reason Barber turned into a fumbler this yr, and the OL cant sustain blocks long enough to gain positive yds often enough to continue running

I think the reason I see for this happening is because Barber like to keep the play going and invites contact instead of just going down. This is probably along with a high number of carries is the reason he got injured.

A few guys are going to leave via free agency, but other than them letting Roy Williams go (38, who had absolutely zero to do with this yrs debacle anyway) I dont see who else he could be referring to.

Flozell, Pacman, Tank, Barber via trade, T.O. maybe?

 

[theogt]

I don't see the point of getting rid of Stewart. Why would anyone else come in here if they're not going to call the plays. And there's no one out there that could come in and call plays better than Wade.

We need a guy that knows Wade's scheme and can continue to teach it, not call plays. Stewart seems perfect for that role.

remind me again what Barber's yds per carry was this yr

Maybe we need to put Jason up in the booth so he can see the field. : And also so we don't have to watch Roy Williams running up to him and screaming at him after he made one of his three big plays this season.

I think the goal should be to have someone who could at the least offer some positive input to what they are doing, Stewart is not capable of doing anything. Stewart has also shown no potential to be the future DC, so he should be run.

 

[CrazyMonster]

Maybe Wade will have a breakdown & resign...

How old is he anyways?

IF THERE IS A GOD WADE PHILLIPS......ah nevermind.

Interesting Story behind her, actually...
