Ethan in Cleveland Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Another one where I could care less. It's the players not the coach. Look around the league. Special teams coaches have great and awful units in their careers. But a change in coach is fine but won't make a differnce if they do not upgrade the backup WR, LB, and DB spots that make up the bulk of the coverage units. 1

Guess Terry isn’t as patient. If your point is that firing assistant coaches admits mistakes and takes heat off the GM and the coach by placing blame elsewhere, I agree. I do think its a little optimistic to think that every staff hire is going to be brilliant and every player personnel move is going to work out swimmingly. It's not really the way it works. Even Belichick makes mistakes in assistant coach hiring and player moves. One of the emerging strengths of the current regime is admitting errors and cutting bait (Benjamin, etc.). I think Terry and Kim have created the environment that allows this as long as they see progress toward the vision. 2 2

Bad special teams is generally indicative of an incomplete roster/lack of depth. There is a difference between under performing players and bad players. We have bad depth at CB, LB, WR. Doesn't give your ST much of a chance. That said, Crossman still blows. 3

Freddie's Dead Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 At least this thread fired the right Crossman. 1 1 1
MAJBobby Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Liver is going to hate me tonight. Castillo and Crossman gone. PARTY 1 5

The GMs and HCs who prioritize STs stock them with good players who then produce good results. But not all ST coaches are created equal. I think McD can upgrade Crossman.
Logic Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Now just cut Chris Kelsay and we can all breathe a sigh of relief! 6
MJS Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 I wonder too if Crossman failed to adjust to the new kickoff rules implemented this year. Have to bring in someone who knows how to work around the new rules.
dave mcbride Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Not that I'm any fan of Crossman, but he's not the one who decided to keep Hauschka on the roster (instead of placing him on IR) instead of replacing him with a kicker who could reach the crossbar on 40 yard FG tries and get kickoffs past the 15 yard line .... 1 1
