I'll accept the fact that our O-line is what it is due to DW. That said.....(and I already said this on another topic http://www.finheaven.com/boardvb2/showthread.php?s=&threadid=29701 )...I challenge someone to show me where DW lost more games then the players did.
Where his "bad decisions" cost us the game more often then say.....24 missed tackles, or TE's missing assignments, or #1 WR's dropping a ball for the 1st down on 3rd & 8, or allowing 2 TD's on an opponents first 2 possesions in the game. I think DW lost the Colts game by poor planning, and the Titans game trying to play catchup after it was 14-0 only a few minutes into the 1st qtr.
If you can't prove more losses came from DW other then the players......give the guy a break and you should maybe start asking for the heads of our "over-rated" and "over-paid" defense. Our oh so crappy Offense managed what, about 19.4 pts p/g and our ever so great Defense gave up what, 16.4 pts p/g ? Where's that discrepency coming from? I would have expected the gap to be much wider. I'd say out of our 6 losses, the Defense lost 4 of them
houston - thought it was practice
colts - couldn't cover a single short pass it seemed
Titans - 2 TD's allowed in the first 2 drives....nuff said
Eagles - 24 missed tackles
Offensive losses
Pats home - ah....can't kick
Pats away - ....it'd be nice if someone could block a blitzing safety every now and then
games DW was outcoached as well:
Colts
Titans
so.....where is it DW's fault? If anything....it's a miracle that we wound up 10-6 with a Defense that can't remember if they're in practice or not, a backup QB with a worse rating then Lucas had, a kicker that doesn't think it's important to practice kicking (although I'm the highest paid in the league), receivers that drop balls thrown right into their chest (I mean, we don't expect them to catch the overthrown ones....but on the numbers), an O-line that couldn't open a hole for a running back regardless of who it was,.......
....wait....I'm noticing a trend here.....DW DID either assemble this team or keep the players there........yep.....that's how it is his fault.
