So he said nothing and he’ll probably do nothing.

We’ll hear the excuse about how young the defense was and they’ll do better with a full offseason together.

Same as it always was.

Fun with Sutton's wiki:

If he’s going to be intellectually honest with himself, then the only conclusion he can draw is that Sutton and his subsequent defensive planning and execution are the weak link. Termination is the only logical choice.

I’ll be 100% surprised if he actually follows through.

If he's back...they're a joke organization.

Red Dawg 01-21-2019 12:37 PM

How can they not fire him. Is there any way to sell this to the fan base? I would not attend a game in 19 if he isn't fired.

Sofa King 01-21-2019 12:42 PM

How can a guy with an offensive system that crushes even good defenses not see that his own goddamn defense is so bad! We'd score 50 on our own defense every week.

Mecca 01-21-2019 12:42 PM

I feel like Andy Reid is way more interested in being a buddy to his coaching staff than making good decisions.

dirk digler 01-21-2019 12:44 PM

He was asked a few times about Sutton and didn't say anything which I take as a good sign because he didn't say he was coming back and didn't really defend him. But he is not going to throw him under the bus in front of the media.

Mecca 01-21-2019 12:46 PM

Reid would be my hero if he not only threw him under the bus but ran over him 50 times.

PHOG 01-21-2019 12:48 PM

Please! Get rid of him and trash the defense, start over.

Sutton is human trash and deserves to face a firing squad.

Reid needs to be gone. 1-5 now in conference championship games. Was the favorite in 4 of them, just not a big game coach.

Also-I think that ditching the 3-4 is just something that should be done. When everyone ran a 4-3, running a 3-4 was a smart move as those 'tweener' type lb'ers were plentiful and undervalued. Now that half of the league runs a 3-4 that's not true anymore. I'd think about tagging and trading Ford, switching to a 4-3 and having Speaks play DE at about 280. Houston put his hand in the dirt at RDE at about 260. Maybe Kpass would be reasonably decent at his natural position. Definitely draft DE and DT. Hitchens, O'Daniel and a FA LB. Still need a S, and a starting CB.

Bellichek runs a 3/4. Here is the difference. He knows how to find "no name talent" and knows exactly what he wants in his scheming thus finding those type of players and not overwhelming them as he takes away your best players. Bellichek has an eye for talent, knows you better than you know yourself and can stop you most of the time. 3/4 is the best when you have the right players (and there is the challenge)because it disguises the blitzes much better and you can defense more offensive weapons:thumb:

True. But if the Kingdom rumblings turn into earthquakes I think Clark goes to Andy and has that conversation

For all of Sutton's flaws especially not making adjustments, you wonder how much say so he has in the draft ? Actually identifying talent ? I'm not a Sutton fan BUT.....there IS the other side of the coin that we really don't know. Asking someone to produce lemonade from mostly rotten lemons week after week is impossible:shrug:

Yeah, he is not going to announce a firing/departure at a press conference.
