Storm Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 All comes back to coaching decisions, strategies, and how they are getting these guys prepared and developing their weekly roles. Por ejemplo: Brandon Jacobs was doing poorly the first 6 weeks of the season because the coaches wanted him to run Derrick Ward-esque plays. In this case, you have a poor coaching decision/strategy/game plan directly leading to poor performance by the running back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treehugger Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Clearly the catering staff need to take their share of the blame. Sloppy Joe's again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxRik Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 So. let me get this straight- No exaggeration we've heard all of this on this board: Did I leave anyone out? The Water Boy. He's obviously giving the team actual water instead of go-go juice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 got it- adjustments made. Funny. But completely missing the point... Besides, I would argue with you that all of the people and reasons you've listed are valid to put blame on, considering football is a team sport and every aspect of our team is doing poorly as of late. Another Example: Are Eli Manning and the offense (especially the O Line) playing up to their talent level? No...who's job is it to get them to play up to their level: their own, as well as the O Coordinator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

so-cal dub Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 I blame Abby Manning for not sucking Eli off well enough. Bitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 that is the point, storm okay...i'm slow... but you agree, we do have problems with most of those areas? players not playing up to potential, coaches not doing anything to change this, and in general no one is prepared to face the other professional team come Sunday. We've been looking pathetic and embarrassing come game day. I honestly just think that this team in it's current form is not nearly as good as we thought or hoped coming into this season. A let down for sure, but definitely a building block for us in terms of new players getting their reps and finding out the holes on our team (secondary and LB especially, like always).

Storm Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 yes i agree. we stink. but i will invoke my favorite john madden line here: "victory is a great deodorant." unfortunately those victories are going to have to start coming against teams that have looked much better than us... well, actually, the Cowboys and Eagles suffered setbacks too...Denver has been exposed and their QB sucks....and ATL is without Michael Turner...we might be okay in a game or two...at this point i'd rather finish 7-9 and miss the playoffs than finis 9-7 and miss the playoffs...

No...who's job is it to get them to play up to their level: their own, as well as the O Coordinator. Well...if the line isn't playing up to how it potentially could, that's really Flaherty's concern. Position coaches have to shoulder their share as well. But the real culprit might be Father Time in regard to Seubert and MacKenzie. We're still a good team, guys. Just not this insane juggernaut that we got the impression it was after the first few games. Let's see how it goes with the injury list cleared.
