Top 5 things I would do.....

1) Fire Phillips/Stewart/Read (Replace with Red/Campo/???
2) Cut PacMan-set a startard that this type of player is not welcomed here.
3) Gotta go back to the 4-3.
4) Henry to safety
5) Cut Brad Johnson-Nothing persoanal Brad, but that was embarassing and you don't belong on a NFL team any longer.


Here is my 4-3 line up.
DE-Ware
DT-Tank
DT-Ratliff
DE-Ellis

LB- Spencer
LB- Burnett
LB- Zach

CB-Jenkins
FS- Henry
SS- Hamlin
CB- Scandrick

Spencer is a little big to be playing OLB in a 4-3. Who are your other DEs? Don't say Canty, Spears, Hatcher, or Bowman. They are WAY to big to play DE in a 4-3.

 

[theebs]

what on earth would you do with bradie james in a 4-3 defense.

If I'm Jerry

1. Put Wade on notice. Not fire him now but put him on notice, the bye week is soon approaching.

2. Discuss with the coaches making a "Statement" roster move. Cutting of Pacman Jones and Tank Johnson possibly.

3. Fire Bruce Reed, just like the roster statement, you let the staff know their jobs are not safe and served up with the warning you already gave Wade this should make the point you are serious.

4. Quietly start assembling a list of possible replacements.

If I'm Wade

1. Hold a coaches only meeting. Let them know not a single job in that office is safe and we need all idea's on the table now.

2. Make a roster "statement" (see above)

3. Start practice and then about half way through call the players together, let them know changes are coming and how upset you are with them and then walk out. Yes, turn your back on the players and let them know, the result of this season is on their shoulders. All they have is each other, they better figure out a way to get it done.

4. Start looking for another job.

I can see the Pacman Jones cut, but not Tank. You don't have anyone to replace him.

Top 5 things I would do.

1. DON'T PANIC!

2. Fix our Turn Over Problem, even if it ment benching somebody.

3. Fix our Special Teams problems. Honestly, this is inexcusable. There is no reason we should not be able to run down the field and make tackles. Special Teams is about effort and discipline. Those are both coachable attributes.

4. Fix our penalty problem. I might consider going Jimmy J. on this one and just cut somebody. Again, this is just not acceptable.

5. Fix the Left Guard problem. A lot of the pressure is coming off of that position. Flozell is not playing well at LT and our Left Guard is not getting it done. We have to fix that problem.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

man, we need to try something fast......i am in panic mode

 

[Royal Laegotti]

1. Fire the GM!

2. Fire the GM!

3. Fire the GM!

4. Fire the GM!

5. Fire the coach!

Not too realistic but it's on my Christmas list!

I agree about the left side of the line and wish I would of mentioned that. A statement roster move does not always have to be a cut. Maybe a benching of Adams for a game would send that message. if you ask me, Flozell is the definition of what's wrong with this team.

You have to cut his pay for it to possibly have an effect, otherwise he probably wouldn't care.

Sad part is your right and again, it goes back to him being exactly the type of thing that is wrong with this team.

 

[SDogo]

Another thing I would do if I was Wade and Jerry is put a media gag order on this team ala Bill Parcells.

 

[jimmy40]

1. Not promote Campo no matter what
2. Make sure no one else promotes Campo
3. Move pratice facility and not tell Campo
4. Demote Campo
5. Just fire Campo for being Campo

I really have no problems with Campo, it's who he is taking his orders from that I have a problem with. I actually think a coach like Campo is good to have around with the right head coach. the players like him but he can be a hard *** if he wants to be. He is just not HC material.

I like that list, just put Jerry's name where Campo's is on 3 thru 5.

Did you really hate Campo as a Defensive Coordinator?

I always thought we had a good Defense when he was the coordinator.

It was our Offense and Personnel moves that were horrible when he was around.

 

[LucaBrasi]

There is only one thing that can be done. These are our players for good or worse, because virtually everyone is signed for the next few years.

You get back to basics. Running, blocking, tackling in practice. See if that gets their attention and they play to their ability.

 

[TheGoat73]

1. wade might have to be fired. if he starts acting fired up now, it will seem put on.

2. yes

3. yes, but I wouldn't make the change all at once. I'd insert a 4-3 package and increase it's use over time. No more Ellis and Ware in pass coverage. OMG that is so ridiculous.

4. I'd like to see Henry at safety, but don't think you can cut Pac Man and have Newman out and do that.

5. who plays QB this weekend if you cut Brad Johnson?

 

[WarC]

ayuh i like campo, liked him even more after hard knocks. just not HC material. but then again neither is wade, or so it appears.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

1. Tell the players that if you see a player not giving it all they will be inactive for a game and you will tell the press why they are being inactive for the game.

2. Pay someone to sneak into Wade's house and pour some Tabasco on his sphincter to fire him up and make him cranky.

3. Superglue the sideline bench to Stewart's butt and make him walk around like that in practice.

4. If I am Jerry I would apologize to the team for coddling them and make sure they understood that mistake will not happen again until they earn it.

5. Mandate that every player wear shock collars during practice and have officiating crews during practice. If the player has a penalty...ZZZZZTTTT they get a taste of the shock collar.
