Fire Kurt Schottenheimer thread

[pbmax]

Yes, Slowik advocacy was partly is jest. but his units performed better than this.

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....

I'd hope an 'adequate replacement' could do better than completely inadequate status quo...

Time for a change - get out the axe and switch before we're down 0-5 and can't look back. So what if it takes a game or two for the new coach to implement some changes, doesn't look like it would retard us anymore...

[Guiness]

Actually - Slowik wasn't bad as a Dbacks coach! I'd happily take him back in that position

Also - Bates is definitely still being paid by us. And I wouldn't be surprised to find out Slowik is still under contract.

So - call one of these guys to come in, and get rid of KS for crying out loud!

Fire Shottenheimer, promote Washington, hire Butler as his assistant. There! It ain't going to happen but it's fun to speculate.

Could we get that red hot poker with barbed heads that expand once inserted?

I don't usually jump in on "Fire (insert name here)" threads unless there's someone needing defending, but for this one I may have to make an exception...Tar, if you need a replacement for the missing feather, I will see what I can do.

[Guiness]

You're going to dissassemble your boa and donate the pieces

Thanks - that's big of you.

[MJZiggy]

Whatever I can do to help the team...

[MacCool606]

Count me in on the Bandwagon too. He went from GB to St Louis, and they had a crappy def. They hire Haslett as Def Coordinator and upgraded their Def this year - and didn't apparently invite Kurt back.

How long can being Marty's brother keep you employed in this league? You'd think if he was any good, he would be working for Marty.

[mission]

i don't think he has ever had a successful defensive backfield.

lets be realistic... if he had, at some point he would have received a shot at DC for the Texans or something. After all this time he's still coaching "turn and run" then there's a problem.

Yesterday we really looked like we took a lot of steps back in the DBfield. Ugh. Front seven looked awesome save BP/NB on a couple plays.

[MadtownPacker]

Sign me up for this wagon!!

CAN HIM BEFORE ANOTHER BOMB GOES FOR A TD!!!!!!!!

[falco]

I said it way back when on JSO, but bring over Chuck Cecil. He's coaching DB's at Tennessee as we speak.

[Fosco33]

Bump for posterity and another week as a data point in this coach's success/failure timeline...

[FritzDontBlitz]

sign me up for first class seats....

[PaCkFan_n_MD]

Two threads on this guy, he must be loved.


Seriously though the numbers don't lie, he needs to go. A secdonary that has Woodson, Harris, and Collins, should not be playing this poorly. And you can't even blame it on the D-line because there has been some pressure.

[MJZiggy]

I know we won and everything, but still.
