Well, you don't know what they thought. But the fact is just about everyone who watched the game knew it was.

Wow, I guess you would have rather had Thigy?

We had to get Cassel when we had the chance. No one said it was the preferred time. And again with your filp-flopping. You know and even said yesterday what the Maangment says to the public is usually not what is said behind closed doors.

No, I would have drafted a QB.

And I would have worked to improve the line, which Pioli should have been doing anyway. Even if he doesn't touch the line, you can sit a n00b for the entire year, if necessary.

Yeah... you're probably right... R2P2 all the way.... I'm glad our offensive minded coach is leading this team in the right direction for the future....

Nevermind that this same excuse didn't work for the previous coach who had the same problems....

Dude, I can want to score 10 TD's every game and have the plays to do it. If I don't have the players to execute the plays then it doesn't matter.

Shhh...

Everything Herm did was wrong, but everything Haley does has a purpose.

Well, I guess O-Lineman-R-Us was out of the good stock.

And had we gone that route you would be crying in a year or two that we improved the line and now have a rookie QB and we should have got Cassel when we had the chance.

So is that a vote for the spread? If only they hadn't fired Gailey, eh?

Chan didn't have the players to execute the plays last year either.... what did he do with it? And what was the response?

I like the spread myself. I don't think any of us knows what the real deal was with Gailey. As I understand it, he wanted out way back in May or sooner and we told him no.

LMAO.

I can promise you that I wouldn't have been "crying" about not acquiring Cassel.

A bunch of crying that Thigy and the Pistol wasn't the answer?????:thumb:

And they weren't. Not long-term.

Do you disagree?

No. But for someone to sit here and say we should have kept Gailey because of such is stupid.

I know this is crazy talk, but maybe something in between? Perhaps we shouldn't run it up the center's butt every play, but we don't have to throw a hail mary every play, either?

Surely there are plays that can get the 14 defensive players out of the box without requiring Cassel to hold onto the ball very long.

Maybe we can turn over the playcalling napkin next week and find out!
