Why is the media not calling for Fisher's head? 

Post#1 » by Alymero » Mon Oct 19, 2009 1:46 am

Going 0-6 is bad enough, but losing 59-0 is absolutely unacceptable! Heck, not even a team made up of me and a of bunch of bums off the street could lose that bad! So, the problem must the coaching preparation regardles of the circumstances, and that all falls on Fisher's shoulders. Anyway, it's time for a change and it starts with Fisher's resignation effective immediately even if things only get worse by doing so.

For a guy whose was a offensive coordiantor, to have your defense save the team every year, he should have been out 7 years ago. The guy is a racist and doesn't want to see Vince Young succeed. He used to call things so conservatively when McNair was there. He opens it up with that bum Collins and convinced the organization to give him a two year contract with the best quaterback on the planet on the bench.

If a white quaterback had Vince's credentials he would've started from day one and probably would've called his own plays like Peyton Manning does or at least call an audible at the line of scrimmage.

But I guess being black he's not smart enough to read a defense. :roll:

R U serious?

VY10 is about as consistant of a QB as Michael Vick was with the Falcons. His mechanics on throwing the ball isn't as good as you think. Like Kerry Collins at times, VY has the tendency to throw into coverage. The guy simply doesn't know how to read defensive coverage and how to overcome and outsmart the defense. If VY10 is to take over for Collins and crashes from here on in. Say goodbye to VY10 for keeps.

As for Collins, last season was the best season that he ever played in his career ever. Most of his career his issues with accuracy and consistancy has followed him throughout his career. More INTs than thrown TDs.

Also, if a white QB had VY10's credentials and is playing. Then why hasn't this method worked for Ryan Leaf, Gus Ferotte, Rex Grossman, and Josh McNown for example. Obviously they sux playing QB in the NFL. Just b/c you may had a successful career playing college football at QB doesn't easily translate to success in the NFL.

As for Air McNair. He was the best QB the Titans ever had. So to say that Jeff Fisher held him back b/c of race is complete bull. Some plays Fisher made the calls and sometimes McNair made the calls on the field. That's how good Steve was during his time. He knew when to make the pass, knew when to run if the pocket breaks down, when the thro the ball away if the rush gets too hot. There is a reason why both McNair and Manning were co-MVPs for a reason.

Honestly, I'm sick of Jeff Fisher and after the crap he pulled at the charity event. It's time for him to go. He's lost the team, they won't even play for him, they gave up in New England. He still won't start Vince Young, who even with his struggles HAS a winning record as the starter! He opens up the run game because, he himself, can run the ball.

LenDale White and other players are calling for Vince Young to start. Something to rally around, now Jeff Fisher goes and wears a COLTS jersey, our biggest rival, the star players jersey no less. If he would've wore Peyton Manning's Tennessee Volunteers jersey, that's different and SMARTER.

What do you think the locker-room is going to think about their coach wearing another teams jersey while coaching them?! I'm sure Bud Adams is going to fire Fisher at the end of the year, I see the team going 3-13 which is sad. But, it's time for a new coach, a breath of fresh air. 15 years and 1 Super Bowl loss, that's it. Time to move on after letting his team become so undisciplined.

Have you ever met or heard of a black quaterback that the media said can read a defense? :roll: Have you ever seen a coach allow a black quaterback to go out and throw while even getting 3,4 or 5, interceptions? Remember that Peyton Manning led the NFL in intercetions I believe his first 2 or 3 years. Bret Farve leads every quaterback in intercetptions. Black quaterbacks aren't even givent the chance to throw them.

How do you explain Jake Delhomme still starting in this league? He already has 10 INTs. :roll:

Kerry Collins has thrown 108 passes, 2 less than Drew Brese. Explain that?

So you're telling me that Vince can be worst than Collins has been this year.

Vince should be in the shotgun like Brady every play. But he'll be successful at it and white quaterbacks will begin to lose the only position that they dominate. The previous one was middle-linebacker. They didn't even think blacks can handle defensive leadership.

If we can't dominate a position that "requires reading" or "smarts" like every other contact position in football... if we only have good instincts, then blacks are inferior.

The only thing the media cares about in football is whether the team is doing enough to win games or sinking to the bottom. You know that as well as anyone. As for a black QB throw while getting INTs along the way? Maybe Jeff Blake, Aaron Brooks, and Byron Leftwich These three consistancy issues have plague them in their NFL careers. As for black QBs not given a chance to throw the ball and getting the INT? Another poor excuse. McNair, Cunningham, McNabb, Vick, Campbell and all thrown the ball and at times gotten INT. It happens no matter what race you are.

How do you explain Jake Delhomme still starting in this league? He already has 10 INTs. :roll:

JD is still Carolina's QB b/c Matt Moore is unproven and John Fox doesn't feel that the Panthers aren't at the point where they are throwin the white flag up just yet. And AJ Feeley simply sux at QB.

Kerry Collins has thrown 108 passes, 2 less than Drew Brese. Explain that?

Won't bother answering that. Don't care.

So you're telling me that Vince can be worst than Collins has been this year.

It depends on what VY will do from here on in. Both VY and Collins both struggle with issues of accuracy and consistancy. They both tend to throw the ball into coverage at times. Simply gamble too much dat their WRs' will make the catch in tight coverage. VY mechanics is out of tune in getting the ball to his receivers. He makes a better runner than Collins any day. This will be VY's last shot, if he makes it good, he stays a Titan. If he screws it up, cya l8er VY.

Vince should be in the shotgun like Brady every play. But he'll be successful at it and white quaterbacks will begin to lose the only position that they dominate. The previous one was middle-linebacker. They didn't even think blacks can handle defensive leadership.

VY can stil be in the shotgun for 20 and still wcould find a way of screwing the pass up if he forces the issue. Also, his passing game isn't as accurate as it needs to be. He would best fit the Wildcat formation when needed.

If we can't dominate a position that "requires reading" or "smarts" like every other contact position in football... if we only have good instincts, then blacks are inferior.


VY lacks fundamentals to the game from reading the defense and adjust to his advantage. His mechanics. As much as it's good to rely on instincts to play the game. You also need to study up on how the game is play as well. You can only make so many plays just off improvision alone. Common sense tells you that.
