Quality wins over 3 teams not going to the playoffs? They didn't beat Big Ben, Dallas' coaching is surprisingly worse than ours, and Oakland is not a quality team.. they have a good O line and a good rookie runningback and edge rusher. They are also one of the youngest teams in the nfl. None of those are quality wins. We didn't beat playoff teams. We beat teams in the hunt.
All home games over teams that will probably miss the playoffs. Plus Pittsburgh was playing their 3rd string QB and Oakland was playing a 1 pm game on the east coast. I think most if not all (well maybe not Freddie Kitchens) coaches win those games with this team.
I don't know if "happy" is the right word, but I'd feel better if they beat teams they're supposed to beat, and played competitively in losing to better teams.
That's such twisted logic honestly. Who cares who the wins came against vs. the losses? This team has pretty much outperformed all expectations of a team that piled up injuries at the rate we did with the talent level to back it up. We were wheeling and dealing in training camp to fill four different spots on the offense (Alex Lewis, Demaryus Thomas, Ryan Kalil and Ryan Griffin). We were signing linebackers off the street and watching Vycint Smith get significant run as the #3 receiver. I don't know what magician of a coach would've willed this team to more wins.
All of our wins came against disfuntional crap teams except Pittsburg, who had Duck Hodges at QB. We had the weakest schedule possible and some of the teams we beat couldn't make the college playoffs. Heck some of those teams that were that bad beat us.
Actually I made a statement that you chose to provide your opinion on. I followed up with my own opinion. Thanks for clarifying though
This is what you responded to. This isn't a question. I'd imagine you're not an English teacher, huh?
No your first post which was... is what he originally replied to. It is a question and you are the one that isn't an English teacher.
No. You're completely wrong. I don't understand how you both can't read posts in order. They're all on this page. He responded to the statement I posted then said he just answered the question. The question was posed in the post afterwards. Click on 161 and read the progression of posts in order. I don't understand why I need to explain this.
Bro, you're really a moron. I'll break down the entire thing because you don't understand. I made a post with the statement starting "I wonder." He responded to that post. I responded to his post and THEN posed a question. He responded saying I only responded to your question. He did not respond to the question in the second post. He responded to the statement in the first post. Learn to read. It's fucking asinine to have to break that down when it's literally the first post on the last page and then this entire page.

CJ: gee Woody, the team sucked again this year. What should we do? WJ: Nothing. Why bother? CJ: well, we hired a failed head coach who has given no indication that he can be successful in the NFL and the team hasn’t made the playoffs in 9 years WJ: so what? Our own fans will come up with great excuses as to why our coach is a failure and the team sucks. Look there they are! Shit, even I couldn’t come up with those excuses! We don’t have to do a fucking thing! CJ: WOW, you’re right bro! What was I thinking? Pass me another roll of hundreds I need to wipe my ass WJ: OK bro here you go. GO (what was that name again?) oh yea JETS. Now I have to get back on Trump’s dong, excuse me Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Good point about Sam not having three different HCs his first 3 years, but I have a question. What if Sam isn't happy with Gase? What kind of stability is that? If Sam really did have to go to Gase to get the offense changed, and if the post a week or so ago of a film clip where Sam looked totally disgusted with Gase is true, then keeping Gase would seemingly do a lot worse to Sam than changing HCs/offensive philosophies.
Your opinion of Mehta appears to be simply an unsupported whim, which is your privilege but nothing upon which to build a case. You've shown less basis for your claims than he has for his. I believe Gase has this attitude and sends the message the article is about and does not reserve it for any specific group of fans as evidenced by his utter disregard in Miami for even the owner of the team that employed him.
I didn't use statistics from year to year to claim anything; I used the factual information from the article to show the lack of accomplishment of Gase. It seems quite odd for someone to criticize an article they have not bothered to read and attempt to counter an argument with which they are unfamiliar. The only constant that matters is that the NFL is structured to provide competition between teams, not individual players therefore a head coach is properly evaluated on the performance of the team, not individuals.
Whoa! You have misquoted me here. I did not mention Jeremy Bates at all; those were the words of another.
