The Bucs just cleaned house, fired Schiano and Mark Dominik, the GM. Wish we'd do that. But we probably won't.
So, you want him to not only throw himself and his coaching staff under the bus, but Ireland as well? I just don't think that is a realistic expectation. Especially in a league where you never know who you might be asking to hire you next.
Dude, I do not think you're being harsh on the talent. I think you're spot on that's why I said the talent regressed. I just think Phailbin and staff are part of the talent decision making and they failed miserably.
I listed in another thread the amount of talent we need. Something like 11 players or so.
I just think Phailbin (and staff) has a mediocre mind set and he embraces slightly better mediocrity as improvement.
Listening to Joe Philbin talk is pointless.
"Joe, how important will it be to focus on rebuilding this offensive line in the next coming months"
Philbin response: "Well we look at all positions and evaluate what needs to be done"
Thanks. I don't agree -- I don't think any coach has a 'mediocre mindset' and I think these guys all want to win. I think some of them are just more competent than others.
But let me say this: if Joe Philbin and his staff had significant input into the OL personnel and linebackers we entered the season with, or if they were driving forces behind big money extensions to Jones and Misi, then all bets are off. I want Joe and both of the coordinators out on their asses.

When I told Philbin today that there is an anti-Sherman sentiment in the locker room (based on my and Ian's reporting), he blanched.

Not sure if Philbin was surprised to hear it or disagreed with the premise, but the reaction was unmistakable.
