Niagara Dude Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 (edited) Many changes will be required, this team lost games that you should have won, here are some ideas. Feel free to add you know - Fire D cordinator, not enough big plays(sacks/turnovers) with a defense that Rex wanted to compare with the 85 Bears to start the season (Petite may be available for a return after getting fired from Browns. They are still very good friends and this allows Petite an opportunity to fix this mess on defense and get credit for it) - Fire ST coach who never should have returned after Marrone left, (ST were complete garbage) - Need to find a kicker who can also kickoff, we are the only team in league that has kickoff kicker - Find a play making LB who can make tackles ( too many missed tackles this season) - Draft a QB for development, not sure about TT but he has been good at times in his first year as a starting NFL QB - Find a real # 2 receiver who can make plays and open things up for Sammy. Keep in mine Rex is not going to get fired after one season. Edited December 14, 2015 by Niagara Dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hire Eliot Wolf and whatever front office staff he wants to bring in Do not give Whaley a contract extension...essentially let him walk Fire Danny Crossman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think #1 would be the most impactful. Replacing Thurman with Pettine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Lightning Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Get a real OLine, real LBs who can tackle and cover, kicker and ST coach, TT has upside but we need a development guy and a decent back up QB. Rex gets one more year to get the D on track and to instill discipline and professionalism. He absolutely p*ssed away what should have been a playoff year.

filthymcnasty08 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Pettine as Asst. HC would be the play…he didn't exactly fail here…he was promoted away because of success. Bring him back with a non-coordinator title like that and it's better than he would see anywhere else. He is not eating crow by being Rex's coordinator b-tch…and it is a bit of a shot across Rex's bow…one he can handle. They know each other well and Pettine has a track record with almost the same def personnel as we have now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moshermw Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Understand the words DUAL THREAT. TT should be rolling out on every obvious throwing down. He can throw on the run or run if it isn't there. Vikings lost - just like we did - OBTW same score - cuz they didn't ROLL HIM OUT on the strip sack play. TT is a DUAL THREAT - make the second threat look like one. And move the place where he is for the fvcks coming to sack him. Pathetic use of TT running threat today.

Under that scenerio then you would be forced to can Rex as well to bring in Eliot Wolf. That's the only situation where I would fire Rex if that was needed to land him.

Ahh the perpetual myth that the offensive line always sucks. Our offensive line is at least NFL average right now. We are elite on the left side, Wood is Wood and we have a rookie starting at right guard who should only improve. We need a right tackle. Not an overhaul. They will address it no problem. The offensive line is not even remotely on my radar as a concern entering into the offseason. I agree with everything else you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BmarvB Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 If Pettine gets the boot in Cleveland, bring him back to run the defense (forget about Schwartz, he's not returning while Rex is the coach). Get rid of Thurman and Crossman. PLEASE upgrade the linebackers!!!Would still like to have a veteran backup for TT, and a developmental QB. If it were up to me.... I'd buy out Rex, promote Roman, try to get Schwartz back, and do all of the above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about RG and RT, #3,#4 and #5 WR, DT, DE and depth on both lines. Not to mention re-signing our LT and LG. Ahh the perpetual myth that the offensive line always sucks. Our offensive line is at least NFL average right now. We are elite on the left side, Wood is Wood and we have a rookie starting at right guard who should only improve. We need a right tackle.

Did you even watch the game today? What makes you think Miller will improve... isn't that what everyone said about Henderson after last year(1st round talent?) The right side of the line blows.

PlayoffsPlease Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 If there's one formula for success in the NFL it's consistent turnover 17 years of Russ Brandon, 6 years of Doug Whaley. We definitely just need to let management have more time to get it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 (edited) Maybe. But I still want to see them try to land this guy. If Whaley is shown the door, you can be sure that the next GM will be a Rex yes man and nothing more than that.

We do need a competent backup though. We are set at QB and the people that can't seem to grasp this really baffle the **** outta me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
