Jaguars sign veteran cornerback Aaron Glenn

[Chief]

You guys are in for a rude awakening. Replacing a HOF coach with a career retread doesn't mean playoffs.

"HOF" coaches sometimes get old and tired. They're not what they used to be.

Look at your guy. He's one step away from being Lou Holtz.

I used to have a theory that anyone who gets near Daniel M. Snyder turns into a complete idiot. Great players went to Washington and all the sudden couldn't play anymore. Good coaches go there and all the sudden can't remember where they parked their car.

Gibbs went from being a "HOF" coach to Gomer Pyle.

In Gibbs' case at least, I don't think it's the Snyder curse. I think he's just a former great coach who knew what he was doing in the 1980s and seriously miscalculated the changes that took place in the league over the past 20 years.

Nobody knows how Wade Phillips will do. What we do know is that his schemes were working very well as recently as a year ago.

Talent wise, that '04 Skins was pretty, pretty darn good. They had the makings of a physical AFC team-but somehow, Gibbs wasn't prepared for all these "rule changes" et al that happened over a course of a dozen years.

And losing their blind-sided OT(Janson) was a significant blow to them.

 

[Rampage]

This cat is totally CLUELESS. He keeps stickin his foot in is mouth with each post. Unbelievable!!! Can you believe he's talking about draft picks and pressure, and he's a Foreskin fan. What do they know about dratf picks and pressure on the QB? NOTHING!!!!!

he's a joke. talks about philips yet his coach has gone soft just like parcells did. gibbs needs to go back to nascar

Shucks that Joe Gibbs. The guy who took over a team that was in pitts thanks to Steve Spurrier. Took them to the second round of the playoffs in his 2nd season but had to deal with a ton of injuries his third year.

Regarding your last statement, Phillips defense worked because of the amazing talent he had in the front 7 in San Diego. Something he doesn't even come close to having in Dallas. Along with the fact that a head coaches responsibility is more than X's and O's.

Keep eating the cheese for now. I'm sure Wade made the players eat it a lot at the cupcake of a training camp he ran.

Maaan, you really are stupid. I see you're not going to be around here very long.. Move along!!!!

you finished 6-10 and added a rookie at safety to a defense that got no pressure last year. you guys have a bigger problem than we do on defense.

They got problems on offense too. They just signed a OG from the Jets who's gonna walk onto their team 2 weeks before the opener and start. Not to mention they don't have a 2nd WR to speak of and their starting RB has done absolutely nothing all TC long...

Whatever happens this year in DC, just like last it can not be laid at Gibbs feet.

Gibbs essentially retired a year ago when he turned the offensive reigns over to Saunders. And of course, Williams runs the whole defensive show.

Gibbs retired just as much as Parcells did, only earlier - threw in the towel after 2 years, and Bill didn't choose to hang around and play well paid figurehead. Tuna would never relinquish control - wouldn't even let his coordinators do their thing. Gibbs, on the other hand, admitted today's football was beyond him, and apparently gladly took the useless exec role.

Go on all you want about Phillips. If he can't win quickly, you'll be saying his sucess in SD was due to Shottenheimer. And if he wins, he'll be a puppet pulled on one hand by Jerry, and one by Jason G.

This so-called 'dream-job' is hardly that.

The guy's got balls for even taking it. And the reason he DID take it, imo, is he knows their is talent here he can tweak very well...more talent, for that matter, than in any of the division rivals.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

That's not something to be proud of. Starting by default.

And if Newman can't go, you know Eli will go at him all game. He will get abused more by Plaxico than Furrey abused a healthy T-NEW.

Almost everyone in this league is "starting by default". Either the guy in front of him suddenly sucks, leaves via FA, gets hurt or retires.

As much as you would like to believe there isn't much in the way of "seamless" transition from one player to another. Generally speaking incumbents have a huge advantage and when a new guy gets a starters job it's usually due to one of the reasons I just gave.

 

[LaTunaNostra]

It's improvement by subtraction.

Getting rid of Archeleta supposedly will be good for at least three wins.

The Skins, as usual, win thier games in the offseason. if not with ridiculous contacts to hasbeens and trades of their draft picks, with other brilliant FO moves.

Three wins by "attrition". Another three wins at least will come off the re-signing of Cooley. What a masterful stroke of genius that was!

That right there puts them in the playoffs.

:laugh2: you could probally have your own standup comedy act about the Commanders with a few more facts

C'mon guys, stop making so much sense.. Yall ran the idiot away...

by default, whatever, still doesn't change the fact that this 7th round pick is going to be our nickel corner, I don't call that a waste

 

[Bob Sacamano]

I love the spin being put on this. Cutting Glenn would have made sense if Newman and Henry were healthy. Newman is banged up and Henry has been banged up ever sincehe signed with Dallas.

well Henry is healthy now

Congrats, Jacques Reeves, a guy who wouldn't even be the #4 on a team with good corner depth, will most likely be getting extensive playing time and maybe even starting time this season.

Furthermore, your one injury one away from two low round draft picks being thrusted into the nickel packages.

we have a pass-rush, so our corners don't have to be all-world

 

[baj1dallas]

Ball is not even on the team.

I'd like to see the proof of how Glenn is STILL an upgrade over Reeves and Jones. He was probably an upgrade back in 1980 but it's been a long time since Glenn was an elite corner.

Playoff experience? Please! It's not like Glenn was playing on teams that were making the playoffs every year! Come'on! This Glenn argument is getting more ridiculous by the moment. Maybe some of you can get out your black arm-bands and wear them in memory of our beloved former nickel corner.

What have Reeves or Jones ever done? Neither has ever been the player Glenn is now, forget what he was.
