You want to talk about game planning, execution, and development...something about 15 people on this board can do......
Most of us have been watching football long enough to know the difference b/t a well-coached team and a poorly-coached team when we see them. You don't have to be able to create an offensive gameplan to know when you are watching a poor offensive gameplan. I don't have to be able to coach the offensive line to know that our offensive line is not living up to it's billing.

Also, what in the hell does it matter what we pay him...are you looking for a value investment.
This sounds like how Miles would talk about it.
It's not about whether I personally feel the effects of his salary. It's about what we could get for his salary vs what we do get for his salary.

Ok..you say we are poorly executing....yet no one can explain what part....and if they do, there are about 100 things that affect it on a gamefield.
Everyone identifies a poor offensive game plan AFTER it does not work.
I dont see any posts on the 'game plan' being poor when we are moving the ball on occasion.
Once again, only results are being judged.
So why not lend some weight to the ultimate which is wins and losses.
When we dont blow out teams, we point to the scoreboard and say...see how close it was, disregarding the asswhipping on the field.
When we lose close, you say...dont look at the scoreboard, it wasnt that close.
Where is there any objectivity?

You might can tell something about effort as a fan. But as to gameplanning, I can never figure out what makes fans think they have a clue about it. Yet, many will tell you they do, some think they know more than coaches...and if you question them about it, they'll get defensive as hell. If you watched brain surgery on TV do you think you'd know something about it, or how to intelligently critique it? You watch cars drive down the road, does that make you an automotive engineer? You eat beef? You might know good beef from bad, might know how to prepare it, but I bet unless you've done it, you don't have a clue about breeding or farming beef cattle.
