Rick Vinturi is the Problem!
 

The year we went to the playoffs, Ron Zook was the DC. Well good for him he got a job at Florida. After that we promoted Rick Vanturi. Ever since then, we have not been able to stop the run. How many different DTs has he had since he became DC? If the D stops the run, the secondary isn't hung out to dry on play action. And Aaron Brooks doesn't feel like he has to win it by himself.

You\'re so wrong, Venturi brings the intensity. Brooks, Horn, Haslett are the problem!!! Plus, LSU would beat the Saints if they played. If they brought the heat like Venturi on every play, then.......

Whoooaaa, sorry guys, early morning whotang again. I reverted into DODGELSU AND COLEY21 mode. Sorry, won\'t happen again, probably.

I\'ll probly get crucified for this but, Did you happen to see the LSU game this weekend? It would be tought to decide who played worse.

I think it becomes painfully obvious week after week that you are absolutely correct.

A defense returning nearly everyone from the previous year, and they STILL make the same stupid mistakes and same blown assignments.

With the continuity plan in effect there is only one person to blame. The defensive coordinator. If there is one word that DOESN\'T describe this defense its Coordinated.

My only fear is that we finish 8-8, Haz fires Venturi and Haz and McCrappy keep their job.

Finishing 8-8 demands we clean house top to bottom.

I AGREE TOTALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY WON\'T ANYBODY LISTEN?HE HAS ONE D-SCHEME AND IF IT WORKS OR NOT HE DOES NOT CHANGE IT.HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN GO 2 YEARS AGO.ALSO THE O CORDINATOR IS GOING TO HAVE TO QUIT TRYING TO RUN DEUCE UP THE MIDDLE EVERYTIME THE DEFENSE EXPECTS IT?ESPECIALLY ON THIRD-AND-ONE.HE NEEDS SOME CREATIVITY IT HIS PLAY CALLING.

well i too agree. n i agree the whole coaching staff is the problem. check the record. how many players have come n gone. n still the same stupid mistakes on o line n on defense. thats not coaching. so every player just sucks. the only constant has been the coaching staff

YES YOU ARE CORRECT.THE FACT OF ADDING A GREAT PLAYER MIGHT NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE IF HE IS COACHED POORLY.I LIKE HAZ BUT HE HAS KEPT BOTH O&D CORDINATORS TO LONG.
