I'm still unsatisfied with that win. that is NOT how you win football games. we managed to get about 40 mins out of them instead of 30 and thats how the Rams pulled it out by the skin of their teeth. Gregg Williams is still proving he doesn't know how to do anything but blitz. Schottenheimer once again runs great scripted plays through most of the half and THEN has no idea how to manage an offense with a lead or how to adjust to a defense. Individual mistakes on the field need to be covered up by having the rest of the unit step up on any given play but Williams is showing opposing teams every flaw we have through his play calls. Schotty needs to learn some kind of creativity and keep a balanced aggressive attack going even with big leads.
Hats off to Fassel for finally getting his special teams to show up. and to Fisher for having HUGE balls when it counts. LOTS of improvement. dont settle for more wins like this. but a decent start to some hopeful future changes.
Oh for the love of...
1. You win football games in anyway you can. There's no magic formula. Just score more points. 3 months from now, we'll all look back and say we beat the shitchickens.
2. Your blasting of the coordinators is ironic as you have no idea what they are actually doing out there, coaching wise. First let me address Gregg Williams, I personally didn't see many blitzes today. The front 4 was getting nice pressure all day, but Russell Wilson being that maddeningly good athlete he is made plays. That's all it is. Also, Greg Williams doesn't bite in. Alec Ogletree isn't having a good 2nd year so far; you can coach and scream and do w/e you need to at a player, but at the end of the day he needs to make the play.
3. What you are screaming for Schotty to do is exactly what he did today. The dude played with a lead all game. When the shitchickens got to within 2, he cooridnated the offense to 7. That cannot be an accident against one of the best defenses in the league. When are we going to move past the point of blaming the OC for everything? Besides the offense isn't a problem. They have scored at least 21 points in every game since Minnesota.
4. Don't get your hopes for changes. They aren't going to change anything, other than some wrinkles depending on the opponent. Teams don't just change what they did all of camp week after week. And especially not in the middle of the season. What would that exactly accomplish?
