So we all know we're 1 game behind and still in it (despite what the naysayers will tell you).

While the coaches and players won't admit it, we really need to start winning most, if not all of our upcoming games if we are to have a chance at the division crown.

I'm starting to think McCarthy has a tendency to act a bit too even keeled. While this is good for keeping a well oiled, performing team under check, it seems that when there's a lack of focus, it takes awhile for the team to get it back. Not every player will improve with continuous, 'motherly' encouragement, sometimes they need a kick in the pants. Honestly I would have liked to see McCarthy throw his headset on the ground at least once during that NO loss, just to see if he has the fire to win games.

So c'mon McCarthy, lets bring out the Jalapenos and put away the sweet capsicum, once in awhile.

Agreed completely. He's a good coach but just needs to show some damn fire every once in a blue moon.

I am definitely hearing ya Engineer, I don't know if you caught any of my Vince Lombardi diatribe yesterday, but suffice to say I dig on some good old-fashioned discipline. Unfortunately we are not allowed to take anyone out back of the Don H center and pop a cap into them to set the example (that's the Marine in me lol).

Obviously I think he is too even keeled, but I also don't know how he operates behind those practice facility walls...I have my suspicions, but they are just that. I'll also go one further and say his methods of leadership/coaching are probably more effective than say, mine, at least with today's coddled athlete.

I will say this, though... When one of my troops didn't perform to my expectations, they knew about it...and it wasn't some "grade" I gave 'em...think more along the lines of them thinking there was a strong possibility that I just might bust a cap into them...worked, too.

All that said, I am not about to start throwing either MM or Ted Thompson under any buses. Christ knows we all went through way too much in this off-season to start that shit up again because things haven't been going as we hoped, contrasted with what could be possible and/or expected.

Still like to see him lighting a fire under someone's ass...

This teamm has shown that they can stick with the best (except N.O.).
The coaching staff has to put the pressure on to get them to stay focused the rest of the way.
McCarthy has to get over his conservative tendancies and turn the whole arsenal loose.
They have to keep the punter off the field!

We need to stick with the run game...

We got pass happy... that wasn't the game plan. We tried to speed it up... we failed.

If I remember correctly, the only long pass I saw against the Saints was intended for Ruvell Martin and it was thrown out of bounds.
