    Absolutely awful at in game and clock management; how bad do you have to be to get outcoached by Mike Mccarthy and Dom Capers?

    I'd be even more patient with Bob, if it weren't for how unpleasant he is. Sure, Belichek can get away with it, but he wins. BoB hasn't. Don't care if the real event is better, as long as Bob is gone.

    Something has to give there is only some many times that the game is lose behind him not being more soft on offense not throwing the ball down field.

    Everyone one of them. It's actually a favorable situation - talented roster and you either salvage Osweiler's career (looking like a genius in the process) or you get to start over in 2018.

    But the defense is the problem.

    So who do we hire?

    1. Have Bob McNair die from old age.
    2. Have Cal McNair go on a major cocaine/meth bender
    3. Have Mark Cuban or some other crazy SOB buy the team.
    4. Profit

    It's unacceptable thar the defense can't keep every team under 10 points.

    Fire RAC.

    I don't know what everyone is so worried about. We're still 6-3 and in first place.

    I'm pissed off that we're the least respected 6-3 team in history.

    Fourth and 4 inches to win the game? Nah, lets give Luck 3 mins and 4 downs per series to go down and try to win the game.

    BOB should be gone regardless of the outcome .. Chicken ****

    O'Brien is a dumb coach period. This guy's hallmark when he got hired was his intelligence.

    Dumb decisions don't just become good decisions because you won.

    2002 0ffense ran better than this. maybe not but it's frustrating not finishing drives off, getting cute by spreading it out on the goal line. Brock does well with play action from the I and rolling out. I knew that it would take at least more than one training camp to gel but i expected the staff to put them in a better position. Thank god for clowney!

    That's not even the worse play calling.

    The 3rd and 1 to empty the backfield and spread out the field and want to fool the defense while moving Blue on motion at last second to run it is the dumbest call probably in the history of the league.
