Happy Birthday Dan

Hey, Dan....did you have a happy birthday?

You saw your Skins take a halftime lead only to fold like women in the 2nd half.

Sound familiar, Dan?

Maybe next year you might focus on getting us some defensive help, instead of focusing on the offense so freakin' much!

Are you listening Dan?

If you want any suggestions on where you can stick your cake, give me a call!

Um - new defensive coordinator that doesn't change the damn defensive strategy to the "let's not lose" mentality

Cover 2 = SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOFT. Also equals NOT WINNING. For example, examine the skins record. The FREAK'N Cardinals have only one more loss than us. THE CARDINALS, DANNY!!!!!! HAPPY B-DAY !!!!!! A loss for a loser, how appropriate....

And the Bengals lead their division.

I still say Snyder provided the talent - the coaching staff is mismanaging. I am sure DS didn't call SoS and tell him to switch from a west coast style that was working and tell Edwards to go from an aggressive defense to a Cover 2.

I feel DS' pain - 800 million for this? Freakin ouch man. He's put out over a BILLION dollars for a franchise that went to the playoffs once. I still blame the coaches - the lack of fundamentals, the non adjustments or plain bad adjustments, the non disciplining of players who screw up, etc. etc. etc. is ALL on the COACHES heads.

Oh come on, You can blame the fate of ONE season on the coaches... the state of this franchise is in Danny's lap.

If you think this franchise's only problem is coaching, then pass me that half full glass.

No GM... no accountability for that coach your talking about... no success with any of the coaches tried... IMO, they're all on Snyder. As is creating an environment that is hard for anyone to work in... players, coaches, front office etc.

I just can't put this all on the coaches. Sure. they're doing a bad job, the players are doing a bad job... right now, this organization stinks from the head on down (as is often the case).

Hard to do anything about a bad coach when you already gave him 25 million bucks though.

I may be alone here but I dont think SS coached a bad game. Sometimes players have to be held accountable. You take away two bad plays and you have a totally different outcome. Neither one of the bad plays were poor in scheme just poor in execution.

IMO, He coached a good half.

Second half, he made the same mistake that he has made continuously IMO... too big a yardage chunks at a time.
