The official Gannon/Monti/Petzing should be fired thread……

[602 Native]

Still not one single poster can tell me what BPB does well.

Dude is worthless.

 

[Chopper0080]

Are we hating Arthur Smith for aesthetics? I know this Pittsburgh offense is pretty mid, but isn’t that kind of what we aspire to right now?

Art is worse than Petzing.

 

[tennis-player]

Petzing didn’t call plays before he got here; I’m sure Adams would have figured it out somehow.

I understand, but I would rather have an experienced offensive coordinator than take a chance on another learning on the job.

Gannon and Petzing on their off days.

All I know is when you have a pathetic offense it zaps all hope from the fanbase. My hopes have been zapped.

To be fair you didn't have any all off season. You were an angry poster the last 6 months lol

You are correct. Turns out I was right all along. But it’s been worse than even I thought. A lifetime of emotional investment makes me feel like an idiot. I should know better than to expect anything but lightning in a bottle every 5-6 or more years. At 72 years old I’ve relegated myself to hoping for an exciting team. It appears we don’t have that this year and we are on the brink of starting all over again.

You're assuming the Browns would have wanted one of the Cards DBs.

I’m not assuming anything. actually you’re the only one assuming something

@DVontel Think Monti makes a move or have we not won enough for Monti to risk a day 3 pick on him?

I would be ok with a trade for him.

It seems like Michael overcorrected for the hard partying BA/Keim years and the laid back KK/Keim years with the most boring, nondescript staff he could find. These guys simply don't have any juice.

The problem is that they also put a boring product on the field. The team doesn't really have an identity. There are no leaders beyond our 30 year old running back. The coaches always seem like they are scared to lose. We don't take the ball away very often, and we don't hit big offensive plays. We are mediocre enough to beat the bad teams most of the time and pull off an occasional upset against a good team. This team just isn't very interesting on any level.

Yup… like the major pendulum swing from Buddy Ryan to Vanilla Vince Tobin and crew. Let’s just hope the next step isn’t a replay of the Coach Mac monstrosity that keeps some kind of leftovers of this failed regime.

Sad reality is we’re probably stuck with this vanilla group of meh for another 3 years. One more Gannon post Kyler, and then after he fails for a fourth consecutive season, for reasons unknown, Monty will get another bite at the coaching apple and probably fail but will get two years there also.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

The $6.55 million was just what he made last season. A few more years of that (and other endorsements/ads) and he has that wealth you were speaking about. He and his family will be just fine.

I know that Brian. I’m talking about the difference year over year. The aggregate difference between $30M (assuming he lasts that long) and $50M is astronomical over the lifetime with compounding growth. You’re talking a difference of $106m to $177m at death using the most conservative variables. Obviously both are life changing numbers, but I don’t think you understand how they each impact a lifetime’s decisionmaking.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Kind of seems moot if the QB could change up the intended play every play if he believes it’s the wrong decision.

I feel like this post helps me. Since Warner had this superpower, did he really need a guy that was a mere mortal in comparison?

Again, if the QB has to audible/change the route, what was the point of that call by the OC?

This pretty much just goes back to my first statement.

I read your point & it just comes off as if someone & I are looking for a car, that person likes the look of the car just like I do, but I’m the one buying it, taking care outside & inside of it, paying gas, etc.

Reading your posts, it just seems like the OC is a glorified cheerleading job at the end of the day.

Cmon man, you know more football than this. In my experience the QB can audible out of almost any set unless the coach explicitly tells him not to for some reason. And I can’t give only imagine that at the nfl if the qb is constantly shaking off the play call and is wrong all the time.

Does that mean that QBs do it every play? Every other play? Of course not. But to try to build an argument lessening the QBs ability to pivot based on what they see seems kinda weak.

I like shaheed as a deep threat. I would be shocked if we made this move.

Apparently the Cardinals are rated as having the easiest schedule over the remaining season. If Gannon can’t make the playoffs he should absolutely be canned.

I agree but I don’t see how we beat the Colts or Packers.. 2-5 is tough

Also not happening.

They can’t even can an OC that is worthless.

JG will be here to start next season.
BPB won’t because his contract expires.

Still agree to disagree. Maybe one day he'll completely change who he is and go for the gold ring and more wealth, but for now everything he has shown shows that he values his family and having them grow up where he grew up and having them go to school where he went to school, etc. He loved his life growing up here and wants to raise his family in that same place. And if that means more to him than cashing in and coaching at some "legendary" schools - who are we to judge. Maybe he wants to be the BEST coach Arizona State has ever had rather than just another coach at Michigan or Alabama, etc.

xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media

he is a UFA after this season -- so can you sign him to a reasonable extension as well?

if you give up a 4th (or even a 3rd) -- a proven NFL deep threat that will contribute day 1 is probably worth it if you can keep him beyond this season

Dunno where you got that, but you got it backwards. They had the easiest schedule so far, but the hardest from here on out. The only teams on their schedule with losing records are the 2-3 Texans, who seem to be playing better lately, and the 2-3 Bengals, who should have Burrow back.

They already botched the easy part of their schedule.
