I really think Wanny should be fired for the simple fact that tonight he went on 4th and 1 in our own end of the field and we were only down by 3!!!! I was oblivious to his idiotic playcalling tendencies, but now it's blatantly evident!

This is obviously hindsight. The fans were booing when they brought in the punt team and if not for a slip by Feeley, we get the 1st down. He made the right decision, and the announcers agreed. It was just poor execution. Remember, there are two parts to football - play-calling and execution. Unfortunately we can't execute. :shakeno:
 
I totally disagree....we weren't running the ball ALL night long, and the field was soaked on top of that.......we have poor coaching and you're right, we can't execute

this is a case of the coach "always being wrong"..... i think it was a great call... if you can't get a fourth and one with your D holding the other team all night, and you're at midfield, you don't deserve to win.

he was bringing the punt unit on, the entire stadium erupted in boos, the announcers even booed him, and everyone did at home.

if he makes it, he's the best coach ever... if he misses it.... well.... he's wannstedt!
 
I don't disagree with going for it. I do disagree for changing your mind to please the crowd, then running the same play (QB sneak) that you ran on the last 1 yd. try.
 
Before the timeout...I myself was screaming for him to grow some balls for once and go for it...since we didn't make it, of course it was his fault for going for it in the first place...that bastard. :shakeno:
 
didn't he screw up by going on 4th down a few weeks ago in an eerily similar situation? At any rate, doesn't change the fact that this team will be lucky to win 4 games this year
 
My main issue was him changing his mind to appease the fans. He has lost control of this team in my opinion.
 
I agree with going for it....Wanny showed some sack for once...

The execution of the play is what killed us...this offensive line could block a team of damn Granny's to gain 1 yard...:fire:
 
:shakeno: :shakeno: it wasn't even a yard it was 2 inches if you can't get 2 inches then you don't deserve to win :shakeno: :shakeno:
 
I still don't understand that when you have about 15 yards of total offense, and consistently go 3 and out why you would go for it....all the Pittsburgh fans at the restaurant were laughing because they KNEW we wouldn't make it....sad...very sad

You're right, this offensive line can't block ANYONE and don't you think that Wanny knows this?! Even more reason NOT to go for it....

Wanny should be fired but not just for that reason...He shouldve been gone since last year.
 
Samphin is right. Wannstedt does not have control of this team.

Under tonight's conditions, punting was the right call. Wannstedt changed his mind because he got booed.
