Its official-McIntosh replaces Smith.

Maybe feeley will get more than 3 seconds in the pocket...:D

 

[bigmiamifan]

did you see him on the bench during the cincy game after one of the many 3 and outs where he let pressure through?

he looked like a little baby with his stupid haircut and a passifier in his mouth. no emotion whatsoever.

He more dazed and confused to me. Had a 'duh' look on his face.

Thats all I have to say.....lol

Wade suffers from a blocking disorder... If watched select plays frame by frame and what caught me by surprise was that Wade the whole Oline was firing out except for wade who was still in his stance. I'm no Oline guru, but it was very obvious to me on the plays I watched. I was surprised because he is supposed to have extremely quick feet. Also, on blocking plays the DE would run by him and he'd brake down to block noone that was there or double up on Jenos guy and the end would run in free. I think some of those were highlighted by the TV guys. My initial reaction was the guy is on ludes or overdosing on anti-depressants..but htem something else made sense. Fatigue...to me he looked like how fatigue and its affects have been described to me in flight pysiology classes etc.. Maybe he is doing practrice, studying, and helping all night with the newborn? Not making excuses cause he has stunk all year, but he just didnt stink IMHO, there was something else wrong, and the mental fatigue thing is the only real thing I could think of...jmho

I think the guy has known he's been in over his head since day one, and now that McIntosh is almost healthy he's lagging a little more to encourage a change. Kinda like a "cry for help." How else would you explain that he played differently than he EVER has?

 

[Pickles]

Wades having the old sophmore jinx.. to bad his first year wasnt spectacular

 

[pigskinguy]

maybe we should move smith to the right side and replace st. clair at right tackle. it is a lot hard to play the left side, protect the QB's blindside. Then move st. Clair inside to play right gaurd. I think wannstedt is goin to have to try to find different combonations of guys on the line. one has to work.

No. The only line Wade Smith should be on is the unemployment line.

 

[ShAkENdBaKe]

YAY!! we got macintosh!

 

[FireWrongstedt]

Spending a 2nd on someone looking this bad doesn't make me feel warm and fuzzy.
















Especially when that 2nd was traded to none other than New England. I mean, you really can't make it up.

McIntosh has been my friend since middle school, so I have faith in him. As far as Wans concerned, I don't think the team respects him anymore. I lost my respect for him after last year.

I lost any shred of coaching respect I ahd for Wanny year's ago when he was in Chicago. The fact that he got a free ride here, gave me a sense of impeding doom. Does anyone think he owuld have gotten this job had it not bene for Jimmy Johnson? I think Wayne was so high on Johnson that to appease him and have him come back that last year, he gave in and forfeited the job to Wanny. In retrospect, we should have let Jimmy go when he did. The players were playing for a lame duck coach and prbably weren't too highly motivated.

Anyhow, the last strand of hope I had for Wanny was losst back in December of 2002 when, while backed up on our own goalline, he called three straight pass plays instead of trying to run out the clock with the league's leading rusher. Those three plays cost us the division, a playoff spot and bumped us from first place in the division (which we led wire to wire mind you) to third behind the Jets and Patriots. It was a horrible feleing that I thought could not be matched...that is until this season up to this point.
