7:38 and 2:42. Two of the reasons Andy should be fired at the end of the season

Butchers Bill · October 29, 2006, 06:14:51 PM

Although there are several others, these two moments in the game epitomize the reasons why AR deserves to be fired at the end of the season.

Its 4 & 9 near mid field but in enemy territory, at home, down by two scores with 7:38 to go, and your defense can't stop a Pop Warner team. All football logic says you go for it. AR decides to punt. Horrible football desicion not allowing your best player (McNabb) to try to make a play and get some momentum going.

Its now 2:42 left in the game, and you need a big punt return. Do you put in Lito (I think Westbrook was already hurt) who has the ability to turn a game around in a matter of seconds? No, you go "safe" with Reno farging Mahe and gain 5-7 yards. Again, bad football desicion.

These two desicions are a microcosm of what ailes this team. Poor football desicions, poor clock/game management, and a total lack of in-game adjustments are killing any morale this team had left. This team is now consistently out coached and the players know it.

AR has now lost this team. This team no longer believes in his speeches, methods, or gameplans and simply does not care. Something very similar happened to the Giants a few years ago with Fassel, and its now our turn.

#1. Yes.

#2. I didn't see a thread dedicated to firing Andy, so I figured I would start one. If it needs to be merged, so be it.

Andy is so firmly entrenched in this organization, though, that he probably isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Fassel, on the other hand, wasn't exactly as firmly entrenched.

The last part of you post is why I think Reid needs to go. He really has seem to run his course with this team.

andy is an embarrassment

how do punt down two scores with seven minutes left

and how do you call a timeout after a measurement

what a friggin joke he is

PhillyGirl · October 29, 2006, 07:40:34 PM

I want to know what happened to bad ass, push a sled and then cut Hegamin, players afraid of the coach, Andy Reid?

What the farg happened to him?

ice grillin you · October 29, 2006, 07:43:20 PM

villanova finneran?

PhillyGirl · October 29, 2006, 07:49:13 PM

That too.

I got pissed last year when the pre/post game shows would all talk about how Andy wasn't as bad ass as Parcells and that's why TO would be fine in Dallas. Because I thought he was still the same guy he was back in the day when players were outright afraid of him.

I was wrong. He's a full blown softie and I have no idea why/when this happened. But it bothers the crap out of me.

Um... because the Jags had the ball and the refs wind the clock after a measurement?

At least direct your rage at one of the actual mistakes. There are plenty.
