Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.
I'd jump on board the "Fire Schittenheimer" bandwagon if we could identify an adequate replacement. Do we have talent within the ranks to promote? My guess is that this will happen immediately at the end of the season. Not only will he be fired, but he'll be exiled to NFL Europe, where the best job he'll be able to get is Concession Manager for the Rhein Fire. At least he'll have access to all sorts of "secondary" products then....

Just a crazy thought, but what about Leroy Butler? It seems like he wants to get into coaching.

Doubt he could do worse than Schittenheimer. Is he part of our coaching staff right now? Interesting thought.

I'd rather promote Lionel Washington than have this guy in there. He was a part of the 2004 debacle--where our secondary looked lost. Last year, they looked a lot better. He's back, and they look like 2004 again.

Not sure where feather is hanging these days, but I'm here if needed
I hear Feather's doing stunts for Chuck Norris. Maybe, just maybe, if we could get Feather to bring in Chuck to do a gameday speech...

How about throwing some money Bate's way? Say come in for the rest of the year make a million dollars? I like the Butler idea. I also hear that the secondary coach of the Tartan Titans, a local high school here, is looking for a job so we have that going to

Does anybody have any stats on other secondaries that Shottenheimer has coached? Did they do as bad as ours in '04 and the one we are so unforunate to watch this year?
Oh yeah, and kick his ass out! We didn't want him in the first place.
It feels like a koala bear just crapped a rainbow in my brain!!!
I'm in. Nepotism By Proxy has got to stop. Marty is bad enough, his family is worse.
I haven't even seen the game yet, but Larivee and McCarren on the radio couldn't explain several plays. Once it turned out Collins had fallen and they couldn't see him. On two others it took a replay to show how the defender had bitten on a juke or first move.
Collins looks like he has gone from good to suspect.
On the plus side, our run D looks vastly superior, but its going to be hard to be sure as teams will now pass at will on us until we stop it.
This is good news for Sanders, Nunn, Hairston, Moss and Thompson.
Maybe Bob Slowik can come back. His secondaries performed better than this, except 4th and 26. He was much more acceptable as a DB coach than Coordinator.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
