Relax Sparano is not the kind of coach to crucify a player in public or to the media. We have a great clubhouse and stuff like that brings in a bad vibe! I can assure you that these guys have been ridden by Sparano, the OC, receivers coach, and anyone else with authority over them.

Greg is by far our best receiver catching everything that is thrown to him

As for the so many drop balls... it has die down cause it can not get any worse.

I will agree with you on the turner thing. There is no reason why we should not make him active unless he really really sucks.

I just do not understand how we give pat white 2 or 3 plays in a game and not give turner at least one.
 
I saw this too and had the same reaction. But thinking about it, that's what he's supposed to say. He can't just tell the media that he thinks his wrs are a piece of crap.


Who knows what happens besides closed doors.

Btw looks like wake is going to start this Sunday. Joeys hamstring injury hasn't gotten better I guess.

@bta72dolphins if turner is in the game that would mean we would have to deactivate someone.
 
Link?

What is he supposed to do throw them under the bus like Rex Ryan does to his players and coaching staff. Sparano is keeping things in house. If Sparano told the press he thought our Wr's were sh*ty what good would that do? Maybe it would light a fire under their a**es, but more than likely is would cause problems in the locker room, which is not what a 3-5 team who is looking to get on a winning streak needs.
 
Or Joey's ego. Hopefully that's out for the season.
 
Sparano definitely knows his recievers arent getting it done.. What he tells the media is one thing, what he tells his players when the media isnt around is a totally different thing
 
Sparano learned a lot from Parcells. One thing he learned is to treat each player like a seperate and unique individual who responds best to a certain way of coaching. They know how to get the most out of their players and some will respond better to a pat on the back and encouragement than an all out slamming using the media as a medium.

I literally just picked up a book for an informative report I'm doing on Parcells called "Parcells: A Biography" and on the back it has a quote by Harry Carson (NY Giants linebacker back in the day) that goes like this:

"He was always coaching, every minute. He was yelling, screaming, chewing out some people, calling them names, making fun of them. Others he would pat on the butt and praise them. He knew exactly what he could do with each player, what makes that player tick."

I know that Sparano isn't a Parcells clone but I also know Bill takes pride in everything that has his name associated with it and wouldn't want a coach who doesn't follow his basic principles to take over his team.

Well certainly there is someone we can deactivate cough cough PORTER, :chuckle: :( i know wont happen.
 
One thing is for certain , and that is I miss Dan and the Marks brothers , Jim Jensen and bruce Hardy . hell I miss chambers and mcnight .
 
Didn't see article or hear him speak...is he saying he is happy to have Camarillo and Hartline starting out of our WR group or is he saying he is happy with our WRs as a group?
 
Maybe he is talking about the starting receivers on his fantasy team..
 
it must be funny to have the coach chew your *** off in private and then tell the media he is happy

"coach speak", learn the term

"I am not going to be the coach at Alabama"

It could happen he still has the hamstring nagging him, which it shows on the field. He is slow off the line and isn't getting a push up field. The thing is with Porter is all a sudden he flicks a switch and rips of 3 or 4 games as monster. Multiple sacks, fumbles etc....
 
Sparano talked about the "effort and improvement" Wilford was making, right up until he was cut. He is just protecting his WR corp for the moment, but you can be sure at least one or two guys will be cut/replaced as soon as it's possible.
