Re: Skins cowboys postgame

I think what pissed me off the most is here we are down 14 or 15 points well in the 4th q....and we're huddling. Why? How many damn times have we seen this under Shanahan? Here we have a coach who is almost the highest paid in the league and he can't run no huddle? He can't manage the clock? He's not calling the plays so what is he doing? WTF is that all about? I hate to blow it up, I think Mike gets one more year but he needs to fire his son.

Yeah man. For me it goes back earlier. I play the clock and not the score- dont panic. But if we give up an opening drive TD, we can't always begin games trailing. Mathematically we can't give up 7 and score 3 and expect to win.
Shanahan has no urgency until its the 4th qtr last possession. Why can't we be a team that wants to f'kn play with leads and defend it until the final whistle? Losing is unacceptable to us, but tolerable to shanahan. I would be going no huddle until we are back in ball games.

Huddling up in the 4thqtr is pointless. I was just hoping they would run the clock out b/c why are they pretending to care to win and prolong a loss? Just run the clock out and take your after tan lotions the f'k back to VA.

What makes Shanahan's lack of urgency and poor clock management even more egregious is that the offense has been at its most effective in the no huddle this season.

Why should Mike get one more year? We've seen what he has to offer and it isn't good enough for him to continue as HC. I hated the idea of blowing it up when I still felt that he was the right man for the job. I no longer feel that way. Now I hate that he is getting one more minute as HC.

Just goes to show how unaware this coaching staff really are. No urgency. Not one draw play or screen to offset the rush. They like to call a quick pass across the field but for no gain to the WRs as a screen that almost always gets close to being picked off for a pick 6.
