Wanny's worst call

There are so many, but how about sticking with too many players that couldn't get the job done and not giving others opportunities...For example...we trade for Feeley and Wanny decided that Ears "deserved" the start, so AJ never got a legitimate shot. He did the same with Griese the previous year.
 
How about playing to not lose instead of playing to win !!
 
Trading a 2nd round pick to the New England Patriots for a third round pick, and then getting Wade Smith.
Then saying, Well from a "Standpoint" of value, we felt we got fair value, a 2nd round pick next year is worth a third round pick this year, which, is BS, no matter what anyone says. Third round talent is third round talent, second is second.
 
Wanny's worst call.....................the one he got from RW a week or so before trainning camp last year.
 
The lobster trap. Not a good idea to get your team worry about losing to an inferior opponent when you should be preparing them to kick the hell out of said opponent.

Letting Norv Turner pass three straight times from our goal line when we had the damn rushing champion in our backfield and we needed to kill clock.

Being such a chicken "bleep". The guy had no confidence ever....and that began to wear on the team.

Being so conservative. The guy made vanilla look daring.

Man...I don't want to continue...he is gone...but not forgotten (yet).
 
Calling runs up the middle against Pittsburgh in week 3. The #1 defense and the worst rushing offense... jeez, my baby brother could have figured that out.
Yeah, I know, the rain made it hard to pass. Hines Ward caught a TD that game. I should know, he was on my fantasy team.
 
How about calling to run a play before the two minute warning in Buffalo two years ago. Ricky rushed for over 200 already, we needed to win that one game. He comes out in the second half and doesnt run at all. The he passes it when we are on our own goaline. At least if Ricky ran he might bust out not to mention getting a first down and killing the game. In worst case scenario he just forces Buffalo to use all their timeouts and wear down the clock a bit more. I just love how he ran a play before the two minute warning like it was going to trick Buffalo or something when all it did was save them a timeout.

Getting rid of Griese instead of Fiedler.

Dude i totally agree, Mostly evrything he did was bad. The only good things were getting randy, ricky( in case if some of u forget he is the mofo who chose to retire) chris and marty
 
There are so many to choose from, and they are all equally painful...

Why force us to relive them?

To agree to be the Dolphins head coach....after that, almost all of his personnel decisions were boneheaded. I had no faith in the guy from day one.

Me neither. And I don't feel like a genius for seeing it before hand. Just look at what he did in CHicago.:mad:

Yea, I was just thinking the other day, he was the link to Chris Chambers. He had ties to Wisconson, or a friend was head coach. He was still a twit though.
