[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 622721"] Go, Pack, Go! Go, Capers, go! I would have preferred to wait until after the game to continue this discussion, but here we are. I don't have "near hatred" for Capers. For all I know he's a very fine gentleman. Let's call it a distaste for a system tailored to veteran players with an overemphasis on finesse and "thinking" which goes hand in hand with a lack of closing culture...whether it's closing on a ball carrier or closing out a game. You have the bias issue backwards. The distaste did not spontaneously generate out of the ether leading to a bias; the distaste arose from the last 4 years of observation. That's not a bias any more than your distaste for the play of certain players based on observation is a bias. And where exactly was it "all of the blame"? That is a gross misunderstanding with some handy black-and-white thinking. If I were to take a similar tack, I'd say you have a bias against the players and want to see them fired. But I wouldn't do that. The idea is to fix the the things you can given the circumstances and limitations of the moment. Maybe Capers has too much "dead money" in his golden parachute inhibiting the ability to buy hotels and gas stations, but we have not way of knowing. What we do know is you can't fire all the players who's pay-for-performance quotient is not up to snuff. But you can fire a coach who's performance is not up to snuff. [/QUOTE]
