Breakdown of why McDaniels is the main reason for the loss....

Linda_The_Pats_Fan said:

From what I have read, and heard, BB usually does not interfere with what his coordinators are calling, on both sides of the ball. He has an attitude of letting the coordinators do their jobs.

This does not mean that in certain situations he might not intercede and give his two cents worth, but overall, the coordinators have control of what gets called.

BB does, of course, have final say so on the game plan that the coordinators want to implement, as far as I have heard.

"If I don’t want to run the play, then I can call it off – that’s my right as a head coach. Any of the bad ones, you can blame me for because ultimately I could change them if I wanted to." - Bill Belichick

Thats a gimmee, as it is with any head coach, but the question is, does he? My opinion is no, or at least hardly ever. You see, he said that he "could" change them, not that he does change them.

The lack of WRs is the problem, doesn't matter what Josh calls for Tom Brady...I repeat Tom Brady.

None of these guys are getting open and it seems pretty basic and one dimensional, someone needs to help Lloyd and it isn't going to be Welker or the TEs, Brady isn't 25-28 anymore, I think he needs more depth at weapons.

Exactly. But, will Belichick act on it. Where was Salas?

Linda_The_Pats_Fan said:

And, that is it in a nutshell of where I believe he is very weak.

I dont know why, but he just gives off an appearance of smugness and that he can do no wrong, and just is not willing to admit it and make quick changes.

Provable? No. But it sure looks like that in many instances.

But, time to move on to Baltimore.

No, probably the same as the current one, about 2 or 3, as many other people do. Isnt that the purpose of forums like this one. At least that is what I have been told.

No one starts 2 or 3 threads let alone 8 in the span of 2 days.

There is a good amount of members in here,including me that post 1-3 a day but more than 5 in 24 hours is a bit too much,especially when there is a good chance that that very topic is in another thread posted that same day.

8? dont be ridiculous.

I just did a search of threads started by me since 9/4 and the total was 15. That is 15 in the last 14 days, an average of just over 1 per day. If you cant post an honest post, dont.

For the record....

You started at least 8 threads on 9/16. Your "all threads" shows 7 of them, and you had at least one other merged.

Let's see... flubbed catches by Lloyd, Gronk and Welker, a field goal off an interception, a blocked kick for an easy seven points, a flubbed kick by a usually reliable kicker, and penalties up the ying-yang. Oh yeah, and Hernandez missing most of the game.

How are any of these the OC's fault ?

Why am I wasting my time reading Linder's threads ?

People are going to assign blame where they want, no matter how farfetched it seems.

During the loss to the Colts in 2008, Jabar Gaffney dropped a sure TD pass. Gaffney was wide open, the pass hit him, in stride, in the hands, but he dropped it.

After the game, some poster (not NEM, but Mav4 or something like that), placed 100% of the blame on McDaniels for the drop. Not on Gaffney, not on the WR coach, or even Cassell. It didn't matter if it made sense or not, it all McDaniels fault.

Its posters like this, that have been slowly ruining this board. :scream:


edit: We may be joking around, but what if Linda really IS Nem?

Right I searched and counted 6 and this isn't even including the 3 that you had merged into one thread nor another I chose to ignore. IJS. I wasn't being rude just telling it like it is.

I can't believe I spent 4 minutes of my life skimming this thread. :nooo:

How pathetic is NEM's life that he has to return repeatedly to a forum that keeps banning him, this time as a woman?

I don't care how many threads you start, Linda. Just try to make them better quality than this garbage.
