PromoTheRobot Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 We are going to find out how good a coach Mike Mullarkey is in the next week or two. It sucked losing today, but it doesn't end our season. However, how we recover from such a disappointment, and how well mistakes get corrected, and how discipline gets established, will tell us all we need to know about Coach Mullarkey. If I'm him, I call a team meeting, and show a video of all the showboating by the defense, and then ask the team how did that help us win? Then I show a video of the Pats D vs. the Colts to show them how a Super Bowl defense gets it done. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 You'd show them a video of the Pats D getting shredded for 440 yards, including a long drive consisting of NOTHING BUT running plays, a 45 yard pass that looked like it was leading to a game winning drive by the opponent only to luck out when their "superstar" QB decided to lock on to his left on 3rd down and take a rookie sack out of field goal range? You call that a dominant D? Our problem today was an O that couldn't score a TD when they were spotted the 1st 97 yards! Or on any drive that didn't begin inside the opponents 20 yard line for that matter. That is a far cry from the Pats offense. Granted our D wasn't playing the Colts, but this game could have been won many times over by some decent offense. Showing our O a video of the pats O would be more effective. And a video of the Colts O to see how to lose a game that you had in the bag, but we seem to have perfected that. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 I agree, next week is going to be huge for this coaching staff. The last 3 years, when we suffered an embarassing loss like in the last 3 years, we saw NO change in the game plan the next week. The same mistakes, the same plays. Lets see if Mularkey can adjust and pull out a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can go into OAK and get a big win, the team will hopefully have the right attitude going into the bye week and preparing for NE. If we lose, we risk the team slipping into a losing mentality and mopping around the entire bye week and getting destroyed by NE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
