Pioli has repeatedly stated that Clark has not bogarted the checkbook. If you can believe him (and I don't know why we should) any austerity is, therefore, on his head.

The bad decisions are mounting up, that's for sure. After a loss like this, I have to keep reminding myself that we really are functioning without our best players, without a quarterback, and without any depth whatsoever. Those are all bad things, but Pioli could have and should have done something about two of those.

And, of course, that's not taking into account the somewhat bizarre draft choices we've made.

In year three of a rebuild, you should have something to show for it. We don't. But, not only that, we have once again become a league joke. I can only wonder if the local fans will finally begin boycotting ArrowPointingDownHead Stadium this year.

Fisher worked for an owner that makes Clark look like a Black Friday shopper.

He's burned out, though. Really burned out.

Kind of wondered if you'd have some insight on him. No chance he's back on the sidelines soon?

I don't necessarily disagree.

But post McNair, Fisher had to deal with a lot of meddling from his owner if memory serves.

He might do a lot better if he wasn't saddled with an owner who demanded he start a flava clown QB.

When Fisher had McNair that team won playoff games multiple seasons. When they went into the Vince Young/Kerry Collins merry-go-round, shit went south.

As opposed to a meddling GM who saddled the previous coach with a backup/starter (whom he knew "better than anyone")?

Point taken. But we have to hope that Fisher would be smart enough not to come here if he was saddled with Cassel.

He's enjoying time out of the spotlight and between his hottie's legs.

I don't think he would be interested in another coaching job right now ... particularly if he couldn't make personnel decisions.

Do people really want Jeff Fisher? Me thinks he's done coaching.

Yeah, just too gun-shy about the level of incompetence shown by Pioli to this point. No confidence.

Perhaps, if he would hire a more seasoned HC, one with a stronger voice that he would respect, the two could sort of balance each other out.

And then the whole scenario sounds a lot like Marty and Carl. LMAO.

:thumb: Actually that is a pretty damm good guess. Fisher was pretty respected among his players.

I just realized his son is already linebackers coach with this team. Talk about smooth transition

It's sad to see this thing go so badly at this point.

I don't mind losing on the road to the Pats ... most teams do. It's nothing to be ashamed of. And, to be perfectly honest, we looked pretty damn good for the first 20 minutes or so.

What bothers me is that, as the game unfolds, we don't seem to respond well to what the other team decides to do ... either on offense or defense. No adjustments. No counter-strategy. No chess match.

I know that a lot of times a team is handicapped when it comes to in-game adjustments due to personnel limitations (and we have many this year), but it seems like when the enemy figures out our plan, we're done. And it doesn't seem to matter much who we're playing.

I'm trying really hard not to overreact to this deal, but I have to honestly admit that Haley looked a little lost out there. I feel badly for Palko, too. The little bastard went out there and gave it everything he had and got smushed in return.

The thing that pisses me off is the fact that this is year 3 of this regime and, as of today, we remain the laughing stock of the entire league. A joke. The ugly, little, wimp kid who was born with a wedgie.

As a long-time, loyal fan, that pisses me off. So, I don't really care if they chop off Pioli's head or Haley's dick so long as they figure out how to get this team on top which is what the fans deserve.

I don't really care.

Until we get a good QB in here, it's going to be the same old shit.

This offense reminds me of the '92 team with Dave Krieg

It does.

And '92 reminds you of '86 which reminds you of '79, etc., etc.

I sense a pattern emerging.

The retread makes sense I can't think of too many guys from the tree who are qualified coaches: Bowles, Ferentz, the current Pats OC?
