[QUOTE="packedhouse01, post: 37194, member: 204"] It starts at the top. Everything starts now with TT, just as it did with Sherman. The majority of the talent that Sherman started with this year was talent he drafted. He wasn't a good enough coach to win with what he gave to the team in talent. TT didn't make enough changes in a positive way to help his coach win either. Example, you can't allow two all-pro type guards to walk away from your team without having replacement ready to take over. We all know injuries happen. Javon Walker was an outstanding receiver, but all teams get through injuries. "The Mouth", Ferguson wanted to be the next great receiver. Except he's always injured and now he's afraid to go catch a ball. Your two top running backs get injured. That's just bad luck, but if you have a decent line, you can still run the ball. Samcon proved that if you're quick enough to hit even a little hole you can gain yards. Bates did a nice job coaching a badly talented defense. Some might say he completed a miracle because there isn't any talent on this defense in my opinion. The special teams have been a travesty since Sherman took over as head coach. So we all know that we had a terrible season and we're all blaming this season on unfortunate injuries. But coming out of the preseason we weren't injured and we were still playing bad. Why? Because this team is a badly prepared team. Sherm took a couple of very talented teams in the past to the playoffs but were iliminated early. His one shot was the game against Philly and we all remember 4th and 26. The argument can be made that Sherman won before. But the truth is also clear that he had some pretty special talent left over from Wolf's tenure and couldn't get it done He has kept his buddies on the coaching staff when they weren't producing.
