That line was in response to the question of if I was indeed aware he had at one time been an offensive coordinator. I am. I even saw him call a game once!:D

In less than a year's time, this fanbase has gone from reading Herm Edwards the riot act over not kicking a field goal late in a game that would have kept us from getting shut out - to saying it's perfectly ****ing acceptable to completely quit trying to win coming out of the tunnel after HALFTIME.

ROFL

What am I reaching for?

This place went to DefCon 2 after the Carolina game because Herm didn't kick a ****ing field goal to keep from getting shut out.

And now people are saying it's OK to quit to "send a message."

I'd love to know where you think I'm reaching.

Oversimplify much? I think everything in this post has been addressed in the thread. I understand the frustration but you're comparing apples to oranges.

Considering your avatar, signature, and description all still criticize Herm after he's been gone this long.... yeah... forgive me if I don't take your post seriously...

See...that's just it. You're reaching because you've already decided that Haley had bad motives in the 2nd half and was intent on sending a message. That's your opinion. Besides, how in the hell is Haley "quitting" in any way if the offensive line doesn't do their job on every damn play he calls?

Dude...I have avatar and sig turned off on my preferences...so that stuff might as well not exist in my world. If that's your litmus for taking somebody seriously, whatever.

I don't think Haley is the metaphoric type, sooooo....I think he meant that good coaching could improve any groupl of NFL players, and now he's beginning to learn otherwise.

"No more fancy trick offense"? Did we just come off the Herm era? If you're alluding to the pistol, neither of those two adjectives are applicable, IMO.
I'm alluding to Gailey and how he modified the offense to take advantage of what his players could do and didn't ask them to do things they didn't do well. Haley obviously didn't think this was the right approach to rebuilding and I agree.

Is he a pussy? I tend to doubt it, but who knows.
I don't understand how he quit. Trying to establish the run in the third quarter when down by 3 scores is quitting?

Probably not quitting, but at a minimum it is trying to run the clock so the final score doesn't get more lopsided.

3rd quarter that was fine. You can still try to score with a balanced conventional offense to get back in the game, but down 20 in the 4th and they are STILL doing it and not running the hurry up is just wrong.

It was brutal to watch, as a fan. But damn if driving the point home works then do whatever it takes...Three games in is pretty early to evaluate progress, but, we are NOT going to the playoffs this year. Get this thing working so we have a shot next year, is how I'm feeling. Penalties and blocking schemes...show improvement!!!
