I'm sure this is it. It's a no win situation for Gailey. If Jackson plays and bombs then he is one step closer to the door. If Jackson plays and looks good then he is one step closer to the door. No win by playing Jackson.
Next season with the right coach. Not that the talent is that good but there is a lot of mediocrity in the NFL and good coaching would get us to 9 or 10 wins.
Gailey needs to stay with Fitz because he is all in with him. They haven't drafted a QB competitor since he's been here and the free agents they've brought in have either been waived or relegated to clipboard duty. There is no one else, by choice. Fitz is the guy.
Gailey has bet his NFL coaching career that Fitz is a playoff caliber NFL QB in a pass first system and he's about to be fired because of it.
Dennis Green!
After losses like last week the press conferences would be on primetime with a massive audience of people waiting for the explosion. What could be better for ratings? If you win, people watch. If you lose, people watch.
I agree 100%. It's the only major sport where you can be an ass and people praise you for it.
I agree with this. He knew and then flew, one step ahead of the sheriff. Let somebody else deal with his mess.
No they do not. 453 Pass attempts. 367 Rushing attempts. And consider as well that some of the rushing attempts are scrambles by Fitz when they were trying to pass.
And if the point you are trying to make is that Chan Gailey likes to run the ball more than most NFL coaches then you haven't been watching the games. The Bills clearly have a pass to set up the run type offense.
They beat the Bills yesterday, on the road. They have a head coach with a strong track record of success. They have a strong owner. They have a franchise QB candidate. STL will be in the playoffs next season (if not this season). The Bills? Not likely.
It didn't take the Rams three years to get getter than the Bills. They did it in one year. And they started from 2-14.
It's just an excuse. Show me the baby.
Carrington is to big and slow to play DE in this league. Have you forgotten last season already? Spencer Johnson is a better DE than Carrington... and that's not good.
