Re: Should heads roll?

We are horrible in all aspects of the game this year. Its no secret that since 2006 we have relied on the offense to carry this team even during the superbowl year. Now...you don't know what you are going to get from our offense. It doesn't surprise me though...we don't strike fear in even the worse defenses. We have no deep threat...our highest ypc this year is Meachem with 17. We used to put up 40 at home...

Special teams...what the hell....he has to be the worst coach ever! We have no return game at all...

Defense...get your heads out the ground!!! They can't pressure the QB...I don't know what our safeties do but it has nothing to do with making a play....i can't tell you how many times I've seen Vaccaro standing flat footed only to watch the ball fall at his feet.

We just look like an team with no identity...no drive...I don't know where we go from here but we need an overhaul from top to bottom...

In all fairness the lack of the deep ball has more to do with our line not providing enough time, so we dinks it and dunks it. When they played their best we took some shots down the field again.

That's true to a certain extent...most of these crossing routes take just as long as a seam route or a post...3 to 4 seconds. The line did a decent job today with the pass blocking but the run blocking was horrible....no push...the deep ball has been non existent except for one or two games this year

Games like this where the offense isn't working our Defense should step up

I can't say anything negative. I've been told for a long time that our coaches and front office are geniuses. So I can only conclude that there must be a brilliant plan behind all of the awfulness. Good job guys.

This falls on Payton, PERIOD. The past two seasons plus this year we are 22-20. Most average pro coaches can coach a five hundred team. Most of the players on Defense are the guys that the coaches wanted, LB's and DL anyway. The only two guys on the D that weren't starters since day one are Safety and CB. Our Draft this year stunk. One impact player, ONE! All coaching and being able to evaluate talent.

That is the part that has to change.Along with some coaching changes, Vitt, Johnson, McNothing and the secondary coach. Payton has got to get some nuts and let them go before he gets fired!!

More like 07 and 08. We had some high hopes those years but failed to deliver big time. Payton will find his scapegoat again and next year we will have a new DC as the cycle repeats itself over and over. Drafting bad players and blaming the DC for the job... but guess what, vitt and mc**** have been here the whole time and still get a pay check. ..
