I'm in. We need an upgrade at head coach. Kubiak can stay as OC, which he wont.

With each loss I'm more firmly convinced that Kubiak is the next Belichick/Cowher/Fisher. They had losses too as beginning head coaches. This is fantastic!

I look forward to hearing some explanation of this during the Monday presser. For crying out loud, he didn't even drop the ball, it was a solid 5 yard gain.

I think Kubiak is MUCH closer to being the next Norv Turner than any of those high caliber coaches. Those guys coach smash mouth football, Kubiak's whole philosophy is soft as hell.

Lets start with Frank "I can't find my ass" Bush...........
Then we can work our way up from there.

I kept my mouth shut the whole offseason and decided to give the guy a chance again. Even after the Cowboys debacle.
Now I'm back on the bandwagon.

I think George Bush might be the better Bush for the job. Hell, I'll take Barbara Bush, or the burning bush. Just give me any Bush that can draw up a game plan that accentuates the effect of the good talent, and limits the effect of the bad/young talent. Right now, he gets a big Giant F on both counts.
That's two Giant (puns intended) eggs laid at home out of 3 played. Great teams never lay an egg at home, good teams lay one or two MAX. Great teams go undefeated at home. Good teams win 6-7. They basically cannot lose again at home if they expect to be that good team we all thought they were.

Yes, this is a thread in favor of dumping Kubiak. No, I don't have nor want any pink soap. This is not a reactionary thread to today's loss but a cumulative evaluation due to his time here. I have been a proponent of Kubiak's for a long time now. I felt he was the right man for the job. It looks like I was wrong.
Frankly, most of you are going to roast me on this, but I think that outside of perhaps 12 players, our roster is void of real talent, and that they are merely overachieving within the scheme. Today was a great case in point. Yes, we were definitely outmanned, but the Giants today showed us that if you obliterate that scheme, Matt can't throw worth crap, our line can't block worth a darn, and our receivers' route running abilities are negated. Our defense has always tried to be a scheme that doesn't work. With the exception of much better coaching than the last regime (which isn't saying much), I feel like we are still in the same position we have always been...we need a DT, FS, CB, and coverage LB. On offense we need a QB who doesn't throw funky balls for the whole first quarter and can make tough throws in good coverage without the receiver having to make an amazing play. I'm not saying Matt can't be that guy, but I hate that I have no faith in him winning us hames on his own like the elite QBs in the NFL can. It drives me nuts that he constantly underthrows receivers on passes that would be easy TDs all the time. I know I'm going to get flack for this, but I really feel its time for a change. We have a horrid defense that can barely hold on to blowouts against bad teams, and a flashy offense that can only put up points when there is no expectations on them. The truly elite offenses don't get stonewalled as often as we do. And unless we have a defense that can score points and win games for us when they don't show up, we are still looking from the outside of the playoff race. I love watching defense...the Texans constantly make me sick and livid with their play. I think it's time for a defensive guru. |

Kubiak isn't the problem any more than Capers was. This is a defensive/QB issue...as its always been with this team. We should definitely give Frank Bush a week or twelve off.

I certainly do feel we took the first step towards the division cellar today. Colts won, Jags won, and *gag* the Titans got an early lead against the Cowboys
