  1. why no blame on his incompetant GM who,like TD, failed to provide an OL in that entire time frame?
  2. why is Capers flying under the radar as a serious HC possibility with prior HC expereience and a strong affinity to playing a 3-4 defense?
  3. Ralprh is as up to date on the players as Marv is
  4. it wouldn't have been his choice. The rumor was that Bud Adams was thinking of going with new blood.
  5. Chuck Noll is availavble and fits the demographic of grmupy old men
  6. our brilliant ex-coach did more to beat us by refusing to run Willis after he gouged the Saints in the first quarter. The other nugget of wisdom haslett discoverd is that Nate Clements is severly overrated as he sure couldn't cover Stalworth
  7. What we're saying is the Sherman's time was up. There is/was a reason many of his assistant coaches left for worse situations. The reason is, they weren't Sherman "yes" men. Sherman surrounded himself with his buddies, and any coach that challenged him was told to butt out. Seriously. Many of those who have left have said as much. That right there is enough for me to believe it was time for him to move on. And it isn't hard to believe considering he did the same thing as GM. In 2004, he didn't allow any of his scouts in the war room on draft day, essentially choosing to make every decision himself without being challenged. That's the guy's style. For what its worth, here are some comments from a PAckers fan regarding Mike Sherman "To me, Sherman's time was up, and the jury is out on McCarthy. I'm willing to give him time. The other stuff does matter when you have assistants who don't want to be here and players who don't want to be here (the Mike McKenzie situation comes to mind). When you start losing talented people because your head coach has issues that creates a problem. Exactly. How many players has Sherman run out? He runs off a guy like Mike McKenzie, yet can't seem to find a way to part ways with Cletidus Hunt? Doesn't make any sense. His 'guys' are always his guys, and more talented players and coaches have been alienated. Sherman wore out his welcome with a lot of people, including Ted Thompson
  8. the better qualified the HC, the better the assistants he can attract. Bills should be seriously courting Kirk Ferentz.
  9. Marv has been out of the NFL for 10 years. The game had passed him by at that time. why is everyone convinced he has the connections and the savvy to put together a quality staff?
  10. his 1st big mistake was keeping Mullarkey while proclaiming a fresh start
  11. agree with Wyche totally diagree with Cottrell- he's still riding on the coattails of Wade
  12. why not? they were stupid enough to keep MM after gutting his staff and thinging that was a workable plan
  13. he is going to curse at the refs- same as he always did
  14. ultimate cheap- Marv will pull a Pat Riley and Ralph will have HC and GM for one bargain basement price!
  15. hate to break it to you Roscoe, but John Fina played LT longer for Marv than Wolford- and he was not the road grader type.
  16. regardless of age - they could actually coach Marv's strength was as an administrator- he should stick to his strength and hire some top flight coaches to delegate to
  17. article says he is happy in Iowa and not actively lobbying for an NFL job. It does not say he will not consider the right offer. Saban said he would never leave LSU. Marv should be on a plane to Iowa- especially since none of the front office lives in Buff
  18. explains why his team was mentally soft
  19. Ralph says its an open checkbook. go for the best Another indictment of TD - who chose to hire 1st time non-threatening coaches
  20. maybe if the players and coaches worried more about the product on the field instead of what the fans are saying- they wouldn't have to hear nasty comments.
  21. Marv should be on a plane to Iowa to recruit Kirk Ferentz He can do for us what Saban is doing for Miami. He is not actively looking for an NFL job but he has not stated he will refuse to listen.
  22. how about the 3rd round pick Tenn gave us for Travis
  23. Marv probably already has talked to Jerry Gray and Ted Cottrell. Now we can hire a real coach. Kirk Ferentz
