goodnessgraiciousme. (cp30) Can't really be suprised with all this, considering. you know there was also a story 1 mo. ago about a high school prospect who was the son of FedEx chief, busted with extasy, now may not be allowed to sign a scholarship at his school of choice. Also yest. two Gonzaga b-ballers were benched for possession of marij. and mushrooms.
But mr. Reid is needed by his team in the coming months...he helped revive that team and i don't think an interim can do what andy does, nor will they have a full grasp of what the team needs to look for next year

Even still, with the state of his family, football should be the last thing on his mind.

I can, just proved again, he can't win the big one. Every big game get riddled with coaching errors. They have probably 3 good seasons with LT left, they want to win.

And now their going to have to try and do that with basically a 2nd year QB with a new system to learn, and Rivers loved Shottenhiemer, he was his coach at the Senior bowl before he was drafted.

ah, the 'cant win the big one' excuse...how long did it take tony dungy &/or peyton...how long did it take elway...shott is a good coach and give 'em the right conditions he'll be fine...

Guyute · February 13, 2007, 11:39:10 PM

Problem is that he has had the right conditions many times and lost on coaching errors each time. He did this year on not challenging, bad play calling, going with a very coservative D against New England.

In KC bad play calling led to them losing to the Jets in OT.

It goes on and on. He is a guy that is going to take a team and build it up ready for the big step. He isn't going to take you there though.

He's been at this for a long, long time with some great teams and it hasn't happened yet.

(it's sad his sons have problems, but he's still a giant douche and is probably the root cause of it all)
