Antrel Rolle Says Players Are To Blame, Not Coaches

[BigBlueAllDay]

Whatever else Rolle is, I think he's honest and tells is like it is

Bingo! Perhaps if some can think about that before jumping to the Fire whatever coach stance, that game was on the players themselves.

WHAT IS ROLLE TALKING ABOUT?!?!?!? REESE, COUGHLIN AND THE ENTIRE COACHING STAFF ARE ALL IMGRATES!

Stevie Brown was trying to make a play, it was just the wrong play at that particular time

honestly .....after watching the all 22 ....I put that more on Webster than anyone

Brown in clearly in his line of sight and not dropping into coverage

ok ....Brown bit on the play action ...but it is Coreys job to recognize that and run with their most dynamic player

everyone can say it is on Brown all they want.....I put it on Webster just as much

No question Webster gave up on the play which bothers me

I dont have all 22, but i remember a play where Nicks caught a deep slant across the middle while cruz ran a wheel route from the inside. The safety was eyeing in on where eli was looking and i couldnt help but feel if eli would have pump faked to nicks, he could have hit cruz deep down the side lines. Did you notice something like this while re watching the game?

of course, EVERYONE will ignore an actual player saying "its on us", and continue to talk about the bad playcalling, lack of david wilson, insistance of keeping dehiel in.

blah, blah, blah, blah.

That could be because an actual coach (Gilbride) said it is everything, including play calling.It's a stand up thing for Rolle to "defend" the coaches, but the coaches are just as important in the success and failure of the team.

Arguing that it is all on the players, and that the coaches share no blame in failure, is essentially saying that the coaches are unimportant and share no glory in success either. I don't buy that....

Agreed, however it seems like 90% of those threads are created by the same 5-7 MB users or so
