Execution Hinders, Perdictibilty Kills.

[RedEyE]

After hearing GW's gripes about player execution for the 7th straight week, I now know that the coaches will not be making any changes to compensate for there mistakes. Clearly coaching is an issue. Rather than admitting guilt and correcting errors, the head coch of this team chooses to deflect negativity from himself and his coaches.

I love how he can blame the defense for the defeat against KC, when the damn offense hasn't shown us anything on the field all season (except for maybe game 0ne - "Thanks Milloy"). Hell, the defense scored 1 less point then the offense did Sunday night.

Player execution is a problem, but the biggest problem is predictability of this offense. Gilbride has no imagination and Williams has no offensive concept. It's either give it to Henry (a concept that Gilbride has just recently considered adopting) or throw it downfield. Drew's stoic style enables him from taking the time to look downfield. Defenses across the league are faster and stronger today and will eat a QB like Bledsoe for lunch.

It's up to the OC to find ways of disguising formations, eliminate predictibilty while still getting the ball to the star players, and it's his job to keep the opposing defense honest and in check. This hasn't happened much this season. Unfortunatly, it looks as if it's not going to happen at all.

These coaches need to go..........

We don't need player execution. We need Gregg Williams' execution.

Indeed!

Jets 3 points
Cincy only 16 thru regulation
Miami 0 (defense 7)
Philly 13

I wholeheartedly agree that Gilbride got to go, but it's not because of his "lack of creativity". If anything, he gets too damn cute with some of those plays, too much "creativity".

In the KC game, right after Travis ripped off a big run. 2nd and goal at the 2 yard line. Who needs creativity there? Punch the ball in with Henry!!! Twice if necessary!!!

Instead he called one of his "creative" plays, play action fake and Drew ended up throwing the ball away. Sure, you can blame that play on Drew's execution, but the very fact that the cute play was called is stupid. Punch punch punch at the goal line. It's one of those plays that yes the opponent would expect, but you've got a smash mouth FB in Gash and a Pro Bowler RB in Henry, you run the damn ball. A QB sneak would probably even work with a 6'4" Bledsoe.

Creativity is important, but common sense is more important.
