Wade had his own episode of fourth and stupid in addition to his other gaffs. Wade has proven he's a good defensive coordinator, but a pitiful head coach. GW has made some mistakes, some of them pretty big, but overall, looks like he might learn how to be a decent head coach, IMHO.I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

Tough call...
I went w/ GW's call. Who knows. Perhaps Wade was trying in his own demented way to incite the team. Doubtful, but you never know.Replace Donahoe with Modrak and fire the entire coaching staff!
Then let's go to Disneyworld!
GO BILLS!!!

I don't agree with the call but you can at least make some reasonable defense of it by considering what it would have looked like had Mooreman slipped one out at the 5 yard line. NE had a field position advantage all day and it might have helped turn the tide to give us a short field. A weak call that he probably won't make again but not completely unreasonable. Wade's comments were coaching sacrilege.
I'm happy to remain one of the extreme few that think GW is growing rapidly into the job and will be an excellent head coach. Gilbride as OC is terrific but I'm not sold yet on Gray. Give him an off-season of FA dollars and let's see what he can do next year before giving him the heave ho.

Halbert I understand that position but it doesn't make any sense when our defense has been horrible. If we had that top Titans defense Williams insists on reminding us of all the time it's the only way I can see any justification at all and even in that situation I still say punt. Our defense hadn't stopped NE all day not to mention all season so them starting at the 5 or 32 doesn't make a difference. Giving them the ball there like that they smell blood and put us away.
Phillips was sure demented wasn't he. What he did in the media was much more entertaining than most football games.

Remember, I wasn't defending the decision, just pointing out how much less rediculous it was compared to Wade's abysmal judgment with the writing off the playoffs call. I completely agree with your analysis, but in reality GW's decision probably only sabotages a series or two (might not have made it). Wade sabotaged the remainder of the schedule.
And let's give Wade his due. He's taken a sow's ear defense in Atlanta and in one season is turning it into something resembling a silk purse. If I could swap him and Jerry I'd do it in a heartbeat.Last edited by Halbert; 11-08-2002, 05:47 AM.

No contest. Phillips told his team he had given up on the season.
RJ deserves an honorable mention for playing the worst game in the history of NFL quarterbacking in that game.Argue like hell. Keep it clean. And when it's over, shake hands and root for our team!

If the punt lands at the one then few complain about the punt (I can't believe I agree with CP)...Wade bludgeoned a season where they could have made the playoffs.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
