So we started to depend on luck to win games now? If you said 1-2 losses, you might have a point. But to blame all the losses on luck is a bit too far fetched to me.

Very astute observation Essobee. Rings true from my experience.

In my experience, if one person has a bad year, it's on them. If the entire team has a bad year, I'd blame the management. It doesn't mean that the individuals aren't at fault, but the bigger share of blame goes to the management. It's their job to motivate and get the best out of the team.

As whiskey has pointed out, I'm hijacking this thread, so this will be my last response. That the offense is good is being implied (correctly) because the reasoning for the lack of need for offensive changes is based on our current scheme's effectiveness. This is stated indirectly when people...

; You don't need to know defensive strategy or alignment to know we have been horrid on D pretty much all through CPJ's tenure. Same with ST. Just like I don't need to know everything about our offensive scheme to know that it's been very successful (for the most part), I don't need to know...

Ok (and I'm in agreement with you here) that our offensive scheme and coaching are not a big problem. Can we apply the same line of logic to D and ST and conclude that 3 DCs and two ST coordinators later, that CPJ is a poor head coach? I'm sure you are more than capable of posting our defensive...

Boom, that may well be true of the offense. But what about D and ST? CPJ's tenure has had an excellent offensive track record. So I'm not really worried there to be honest. But by the same token, his track record on D and ST has been horrendous. So I am worried there..... a lot.

Thanks for responding jwasvhGT. There are snide comments on this very thread by some people. I'm not a huge fan of reporting posts, because I'm all about freedom of expression. But some people are starting to make it difficult for others who have a different opinion to share their thoughts. As...

Anybody who thinks that changes are not required to the program is kidding themselves. Enough is enough. We are putting out a very shoddy product out on the field. I know there are a 101 reasons for our record, but we are just playing bad football in all phases of the game. I don't know what...

Good point. Done!

JN threw better? Haha ok. Tells me all I need.

When the FG was blocked, CPJ motioned to leave the ball alone. Why would that be the case? What did we have to lose by trying to advance the ball? For reference, the rules for advancing a blocked kick are as follows: Advancing a Blocked Kick After the defensive team blocks a field goal attempt...

The D has been the team strength. But to say that the D played well enough to win most of our games is a bit of a stretch. It's an example of the bias that has plagued the fanbase in CPJ's tenure. His offense gets so much of the spotlight that the D is held to a totally different standard than...

I've watched it more times than I can count. But the kicker (tic) was that I rolled my ankle celebrating while watching it live. But it was worth it!

Alternatively, one doesn't get too high during the successes or doesn't get too low during the failures. That doesn't make one unhappy.

But... he made the clutch 4th and 10 pass when we absolutely needed it. All his sins are forgiven for making that play. In private, I'm sure coach will have a few choice words with him. Also, feel like atleast part of the blame should be on CPJ. JT (and the entire team) was confused on EVERY...

Having said that, there has been steady improvement in this team. We lost on a 56 yard FG last week. This week, we pulled out a game that was eerily similar. And guess what, I can count the number of times in CPJ's tenure that I've been able to say this: the D and ST won this game for us! Hope...

@Longestday does excellent work. But I'm pretty sure, no coach who is any good, will be using these videos for their film study. Coaches have access to all angles and watch video for a living.

Just listened to PJ's post game presser. Link He is pretty unhappy with the defense and the pass protection of the OL. He basically said about the pass protection and I'm paraphrasing here, "I'm ultimately responsible, but there are some other cats responsible too". Looks like Sewak and...
