Not to defend JR but yall are grasping at straws a bit. He was QB coach at Detroit not the Head Coach or even an OC. See what other coordinators can do with Dan Orlovsky and aging Daunte Culpepper.

QB Dan Orlovsky GS-7 143 for 255, 1,616 yards, 8 td, 8 int, & 7 rushes for 29 yards and 0 td
QB Daunte Culpepper GS-5 60 for 115, 786 yards, 4 td, 6 int, & 12 rushes for 25 yards and 1 td

Just to give an example, Christian Ponder who started in 10 games (and whom I though played pretty well for the Vikings) was 158 for 291 1,853 yards 13 tds 13 int.

and Culpepper, even Lord Sabinz himself could do nothing with him.

Nobody is solely blaming your guy for that abortion of a team. Nobody is saying he will be a shitty OC because of it. The guy may be the best QB coach/OC that ever lived. The only point that was made was that "successful" is probably a mischaracterization of his career as a QB coach in the NFL. You can quantify the characterization of his success on the college level when you see a guy like Tebow, etc, that he coached. Hard to quantify "successful in the NFL" as none of the QBs you coached while you coached in the NFL won a game.

See and I would say that he was successful based on what he had to work with. Again tomato...goat

Maybe you're not defending me, but you just made my point for me.

It's got that "Homerun"..."Wow"..."Splash" factor.

I am of the opinion we give the guy a shot before we take a steaming dump on the hire.

THIS guy knows.

Holy shit, we act like our arch enemy sometimes.

Any pics of his wife? Is she crazy like Kristy?

Also. Ever since Kiffin has moved out west, there have been no new pis of Layla. Is it just the south and the SEC that brings out the skimpy clothes?

I think it's cause they all look Layla or younger versions thereof at USC.

Seriously - its like you write what I am thinking.

When did a QB coach (with 3 shitty QBs) start becoming 100% responsible for the overall record of a team? Belichik himself couldn't have done shit with those 3 QBs. You guys also conveniently leave out the fact that the 2008 Lions team had BY FAR the WORST defense in the NFL that year. They allowed 517 points (32.3 PPG). This is the second highest point total allowed in a single season in NFL history, trailing only the 533 allowed by the 1981 Baltimore Colts.

Auburn just landed Homerun hire with Coach Loeffler and all you fuckers want to try and tear him down before he coaches his first game at Auburn.

At first I wasn't sure about Loeffler, I was kinda meh...but after reading comments from people that know what they're talking about, I think Auburn just landed a Diamond in rough. I'm interested to hear some statements from the recruits that meet him. I gotta feeling that he's going to do real well in the prospect's livingroom.
