I agree. He is not that good. He is consistently out-coached on that level by the Harbaughs and Coughlins of the NFL. That is why MM needs to delegate some responsbilities, LIKE PLAY CALLING, to someone who is much better. (/sigh we need Philbin back) The better teams out-coach us consistently. I have often read it here that Capers' defense tends to feast on mediocre teams, which gives us a false idea of how good he/they are. Something is missing from this coaching staff. Lack of preparation, lack of intensity, lack of physicalness . . . I have rarely seen this team come into a game really fired up. It's like they haven't shaken off the post-SB hangover. They are still living off those laurels and haven't realized yet that nobody in the league gives a damn about their championship 2 years ago and that they've been passed by teams that are hungry for it now. I almost think we need a coach like Bill Parcells.  Obnoxious as he was, if you didn't play your *** off under him that same *** would be on the bench in a real hurry.</blockquote>
