Listen to what else he said in that speech. "Don't give away games." - Translation? Safe, short passes. Ball control.

That's Herm Edwards for ya.

Was the rant great! Hell yeah. But does that make him a good coach? No.

Bring in an offensive mind. Somebody who truly plays aggressive and to win the game.
No, the translation is you don't keep doing the stupid things that lose games for you. I applaud him for calling out Davis. Listening to Davis today I think the message was received. I think his sheet up to this point was that he had all the talent in the world but not the work ethic. I don't believe that you make a player better by asking them would they please play harder. Pretty please. Treat him like a man and make him aware he has to live up to his resposibilites. Singletary has the rep behind it to make this stick. He played the game the way its supposed to be played. I don't believe in yelling for yelling's sake. You have to be able to reward players that are doing the right things.
I don't think with Mike Martz as your OC that a conservative offense is a possibility. Even he needs to be reigned in now and then. Martz lost that game against the Pats when he only ran Faulk 9 times. You use the weapons that you have, not just the ones you want to use.

What the Raiders fan has said is true, our customs are different. What Al Davis has said is unimportant, and we do not hear his words.
