Why can't I quit you mediocrity!

Casey had more to do with the scheme than talent.

He's a perfect fit for Denver's zone blocking scheme, and not a good fit at all for a downhill, power running game that we were trying to establish at the time.

It's not just the money here, were talking about dealing with people, and thats what life is. Its no different then anything else you do. Whatever you do, you're going to deal with people its inevitable. If the person next to you treats you well that gives one more motivation to work even harder to succeed as a team.

I do not understand the DJ thing, at all. He is three times the backer D. Williams is, but can't crack the starting lineup? I am not one of these "DJ is a world beater!" guys, but goddamn, you'd think it would be in your best interests to get a guy on the field that has shown an ability to make a play.

And watch - DJ is going to end up in Denver next year after his contract with us is up, and he will terrorize us for the next 4-6 years.

Well you would have an argument except I would lay my life's savings that 95% of the people in this country would take an ass chewing twice a day for a couple million $'s a year.

That's a whole other issue, as to why Herm wanted to change the scheme. It's not like we were top 5 in offense for three straight years or anything. :grr:

The players loved Herm Edwards. Loved him. That shoots a gigantic hole in your theory.

Yep. And that is because he coddled people playing like crap.

You are so correct. Let them have a chance, everybody is so used to us spoiling these players its so nice to have people in charge who don't care if you like them or not, they just want to win!

Amen

Herm was great at dealing with people. But was awful when it came to managing and getting his teams prepared. And he also did a porous job when it came to game planning, strategizing and make adjustments.

i will say though I see more of an effort in the players when Herm was here compared to Haley.

Of course they loved Herm, his practices were the weakest and easiest in the NFL. Herm players got paid to slack in practice, and not give a shit... while keeping thier jobs. Who would NOT love a job with a manager like that?

Maybe it's because he's played and treats his players as he was treated or wish he was treated as a coach.

Classic Millionaire hatred. They make tons of money so they deserve to be treated like children. If they want to make that much money, they should do whatever coach says.

Yeah right. Money does not justify or excuse disrespect. I don't understand why some people don't get that. You can't treat a professional sports team like a bunch of junior high kids.

if you want to see a coach who had players love him and had great relationships with his players and also had good teams look no further then Vermeil.
