It probably depends on what is meant by 'steady hand.' After we went up by 14 Sims was 5-18 for 99 yards 1TD and 2INT (if my math is right). You can throw up all kinds of explanations or excuses for it but that's bad. He was great at the beginning and at the end but ice cold for a lot of the...
Bingo. And sums up what I'm trying to say in a single sentence. Trying to pass it off as some golden rule of coaching that never gets violated is just silly and reeks naivety.
Per your own words you can't get beat out of the job because you're injured. I've shown you a half dozen examples and now you're changing your story. If Yates is just ok or not very good I'm sure Sims will definitely get his shot as he should. That's not what I'm arguing about. And for the...
Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Drew Bledsoe was not out for the year after the Mo Lewis hit. He was medically cleared to play less then two months after the injury (Source) and played in the AFC Championship game that year when Brady got hurt. Here's the box score.
Here's a...
I'm sure some do. And some other coaches will play the player who gives them the best chance to win regardless of the circumstances that led to the situation because they're interested in winning games rather than paying homage to folksy football cliches. Personally, I'd rather have the...
Yea I don't know why anyone gives that platitude any credence. It's just meaningless lip service. And for whatever reason it gets employed with quarterbacks more than any other position in football or in any other sport. If Sims has to miss two or three games and Yates tears it up in that...
I'm sorry you must have me confused with someone who is pining for the previous coaching staff. Being disappointed with the meager, at best, returns of the current staff doesn't mean you want the previous guy or his offense back. You guys are too predictable with this stuff. Maybe it's time to...
You guys are full of ****. This never happened. There were a lot of people who called for CPJ to be fired fairly regularly for years and some of them are still regular posters. If someone got banned they were most likely being a ****. Don't like that this thread exists? Sorry bro. It be...
I love when someone posts something like this:
Then proceeds to post stuff like this immediately after:
Maybe you should take your own advice dude. Just saying
Winning is what I want it to be to make the coach I like look good. It has a different potentially unrelated meaning to make the coach I don't like look bad.
Eh. If they sign him with the knowledge the physical was bad and he blows out his arm people would say 'the Mets will Mets' in that instance too. They can't win. I'd give the Mets the benefit of the doubt on this one. There's a reason he fell to them in the first place. Reminds me of the...
I'm not sure how much you know about Rutgers' football history but they've been a punching bag for the last 40 years outside of that pre Big 10 stretch. It's the greatest stretch of success in the school's modern history and it happened in a diminished Big East and AAC. Given the state of the...
It depends on what you mean by success. Before they joined the Big 10 Rutgers' athletics were a complete disaster. Not just football but the entire department. This was reflected in the way their teams were for the most part absolutely crushed by other Big 10 teams. Once they started getting...
It's not that outrageous. Say Davis signs for $6 million. You take that $2.4 million add it to the $878,000. Add in the savings from some senior signings that you can pay like $10,000 and you're right there.
