There are clear gaps in the personnel, but despite some massive coaching gaffes and cowardly play calling we've had a chance to win most of our games and absolutely should have won the Seahawk game and probably the Bears game too. The 4th quarter mistakes of clock management and gutless play calls cost us those games far more than the quality of the players.
Not saying Kiem shouldn't get axed, he should, but McCoy is patently terrible and while I think the defense is playing decently well, the pathetic game and clock management is all on Wilks. Stuff like calling timeouts so we can PUNT in the first half of a game, then having a team run out the clock before kicking a game winner while we have ALL our timeouts... those are idiotic game management mistakes that a child playing Madden wouldn't make.
Combine that with the cowardly decision to PUNT with 4 minutes left and down 10 (after we ran the ball on 3rd and a mile... who are we running the clock out on, ourselves?) and Wilks lines about how he wouldn't change anything in how he managed a few of these late game... it gives me little hope that Wilks is head coach material.
Steve Wilks might be a good coordinator and a nice guy, but I believe he has fallen victim to the Peter Principle, promoted to the level of his own incompetence.
