Warner helped hide how terrible our coaching staff is.

I know that this is probably not what you want to hear, but I think whiz needs to step down from calling plays. This is his second go round as "OC", the first time was not sucessful and this one is a dismal failure. He needs to let passing coordinator call the play or let the running game coordinator call plays cause he just can't do it.

It's a risk but a possible good one if the OC has a history of success with play-calling. However, let's not pick-up the dude that SF let go!

Well that hits the ****** statement of the day. You are f'ing kidding;poor play and execution with key injuries and key past players gone has exposed is team as a team in transition with major issues. But one player being able to cover for a bad coaching staff? Yeah, right sparky.

You're right, it's not the coaching at all.

My bad.

sparky? lol

After skimming several of your posts here, I can safely put you on ignore, since 80 percent or more of them, involve you telling people to shut up and keep their opinions to themselves.
How you haven't been banned is puzzling.

I believe Whisenhunt went for a lot of change and turnover of the roster since he is in the first year of five on his new deal. If he was in the last year of his deal, he doesn't cut Leinart or load up on rookies at WR. It has all blown up on him though. The QB situation was botched badly, and that has infected the entire team. The wheels have fallen off far faster than he expected. Now, he has a huge mess on his hands.

I am just going to make this my post of the week...Game 4 Impressions: Chargers 41 Cardinals 10.

We all saw this debacle...we saw what we saw...let's just all chime in on CT's post about WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN FROM HERE:

1. Anderson needs to be released. He's done here. He blew it. If he is starting next week Whiz has lost this team forever.

2. A move to add a veteran QB needs to happen, asap. With the bye week coming up he can be assimilated into the offense and be a good fallback option if Max Hall falters.

3. Max Hall needs to start for now...and hopefully for a long time to come...but give him audible options for a hot route of simple check to a sweep when the opponents are threating the A gaps. Play to Max's strengths...which Whiz obviously doesn't know yet, because his play calling for Max was pitifully awful.

4. Brandon Keith needs to replaced by Jeremy Bridges and the team needs to chip help for LT Levi Brown. And it may be time to try Hadnot at LG or C. I am not averse to throwing him in there, even in the middle of games to see.

5. The team needs to release NT Bryan Robinson and realize that Watson and Williams are better players.

6. The team needs to replace Bill Davis with Donnie Henderson as DC. Henderson will dial up the pressure, which means turning AW into a blitz monster and covering TEs with more capable DBs.

7. The team needs to relegate Joey Porter into situational edge rusher, a la Bertrand Berry. Porter is a liablility otherwise.

8. The team needs to MOVE Dockett around to confuse the offense.

9. The team needs to get far more creative in what they do and how they prepare.

10. The team needs to start playing for broke...and go all out...leave it all on the field...pass when everyone thinks it's a run...and run whenever everyone thinks it's a pass...and on defense..dial up relentless pressure with everyone taking a part.

That's about all I have. Please pick me up in areas I have forgotten or overlooked. Kudos for CT for nailing this one.

I like the rookies...and I think that with patience they will impress.

But, I am very worried about the coaching. The players mailed in another one...and it's getting epidemic. The coaches are responsible and they have flat-out shat the bed this year thus far.

2. Who to bring in? Trent Edwards maybe?
3. Whiz seems to struggle playing anyone to their strengths these days.
4. Yes on all accounts.
5. At least make Robinson the inactive NT if they don't release him (Which they won't).
6. Anyone has to be better/more creative than Davis at this point.
7. This would be great, but who takes his spot?
8. Love it.
9. This team needs leaders.
10. We need a real OC.

better hope Wade Phillips gets the axe because I can't think of another big time teacher of the 3-4.

How about Singleterry (spell?)? Maybe he can straighten our terrible D by pulling his pants down! I'm just throwing name out there...

This is the POST of THE DAY! KUDOS CT!

6. The team needs to replace Bill Davis with Donnie Henderson as DC. Henderson will dial up the pressure, which means turning AW into a blitz monster and covering TEs with more capable DBs.

I was thinking the same thing this afternoon. This team needs a major shake up and Davis has to go.

You were already warned about attacking other posters today. Everyone is pretty emotional after a big loss so I won't ban you for this, but you need to chill out a little.

Jeff Garcia. Honestly is the best choice in mentor for Max, and is cheaply available.
