LabattBlue Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 (edited) What say you? I don’t think Beane has the clout to tell him who to fire, and McClappy like most HC are loyal to a fault with their assistants. I think they both stay. Edited December 31, 2018 by LabattBlue
TPS Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 I don’t think McD will fire either one. ST actually looked good yesterday after being the cause of the previous Miami loss. The new guys thrown in there looked good. For O-line, I think Daboll will take more control of the process. I just can’t see McD letting Castillo go. 1
Mountain Man Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 Castillo won't get fired, rightly or wrongly, he is highly regarded as an O line coach 1 1
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 (edited) Based on comments by McD will be surprised if Crossman doesn't go. Castillo will more be up to what Dabo thinks. As to the comment about Beane not having the clout, typically assistant coaches hirng/firing are at the decision of the HC, not the GM. Does the GM ultimately OK the deal, yes, but more of a rubber stamp of the HC. Edited December 31, 2018 by Ed_Formerly_of_Roch 1
CaptnCoke11 Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 MAYBE Crossman but I’d say neither will be fired
whatdrought Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 Crossman should be fired. Castillo probably should be, but the argument could be made that he didn’t have much to work with. He also did get some decent play out of young guys down the stretch. The line played better throughout the back half of the season as teams began to fear Allen’s arms and legs. Not much a line can do when the D is blitzing 10 guys and letting the 11th sit back in the middle of the field and get the easy interception when the QB throws it wildly into the air.
eSJayDee Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 I think it's an imperative that Crossman be let go. Just too much inexcusable poor performance on ST. As for Castillo, I'd like to see him go, but I think the decision should be based on Daboll's opinion. He inherited Castillo & maybe he likes the guy & thinks he's a good fit. Yes, our offense performed poorly, and in his tenure some players have declined (Groy & Miller). We lacked talent on the Oline & perhaps the thought is that w/ better (& proper "fit") we can get good performance from that unit. 1
MAJBobby Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 I would say both. But realistically the OL played better down the stretch once players switched out. So I think that keeps Castillo his job unfortunately. Now Crossman the ST unit has been a mess for years. And regressed even more this year so he will get canned IMO 1 1

I just can’t see McD letting Castillo go. I think this is the likely scenario, but voting more on hope than realistic expectation. I liked ST yesterday, but as a season effort it was pretty bad. I honestly can't say how much of that is on Crossman and how much of it is lack of an ST roster/young guys, but there is more than room for improvement in terms of our kick return packages and how we approach the ST aspect of the game overall. While it was only one play, the Titans opening kick return last night caught everyone off guard and we should look to incorporate some of that as well. The lack of innovation in the ST part of the game seems oddly overlooked, despite the belief that it's a part of the game long in the past. 1
NewEra Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 We have the the worst non QB running game in the league. Castillo must go. Our talent sucks but so does our OL coach. He had the same results in Baltimore, leading to Harbaugh bringing in Roman to lead the running game.
Bray Wyatt Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 Castillo gets a lot of flack around here but he also has dog ***** to work with. Crossman cost us games this year where I cant say the same for Juan. Castillo stays, Crossman gone is my vote 1

Ittakestime Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 Bring me Bob Wylie. Looks like a house cleaning may be coming in Cleveland.
ghostwriter Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 Firing Castillo would be a mistake, he had absolutely nothing to work with. His OL was fine when he had talent to work with. Crossman is the one that needs to go bye bye. 1
NickelCity Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 Castillo is abysmal. I think he stays, but boy do I want him gone.

He did great when Cog, Wood, Glenn and Dawkins were starting together and I think Wyatt Teller showed growth under Castillo. Guy had Russell Bodine, Ryan Groy and a bunch of scrubs to work with. Castillo is a fantastic coach.
