TheKurp Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 I'm listening to the press conference and Marty's words are: "The absolute worse thing that I can do as a coach is to abandon the system that I believe can work, and will work after just two weeks." Marty's been hypnotized by Jerry Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKurp Posted September 25, 2001 Author Share Posted September 25, 2001 Now I'm really confused. Marty is talking out of both sides of his face. Now he's just said that you never take players and force them into a set system. He says you take players, evaluate their skills and develop a system around their talents. Which is it Marty? Perhaps he's sending a message to his brother and Jimmy Raye. ------------------ "The Kurp" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 unfortunately Marty's credibility is suffering due to his contradictory statements over time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKurp Posted September 25, 2001 Author Share Posted September 25, 2001 Another relevation. Marty says he's going to move Lang to left end if Coleman can't go this Sunday. ------------------ "The Kurp" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKurp Posted September 25, 2001 Author Share Posted September 25, 2001 Marty speaks the truth! Says Marty, "One thing we know for sure, we won't go 15-1 or 16-0." On previous post I meant to say "revelation" not "relevation" (is that even a word?). ------------------ "The Kurp" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 so much for that quick pop in the middle of the defensive line on passing downs, eh? Coleman definitely isn't playing with a dislocated elbow next Sunday. Joe Jacoby said he had the same injury and he missed 4 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitz Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 On his regular Monday interview with Sonny and George Michael, Marty said when he indicated he wouldn't change he was talking about the overall philosophy of how they approach football, not the X's and O's of how you call a game. I interpret this to mean that he will continue to embrace a ball-control, smash-mouth game, but he is willing to adjust his playcalling to the personnel at hand. He also said that the main problem is that players are still thinking about what they are doing instead of just doing it naturally. Finally, he was asked by George about grumblings from the players that this isn't working. He said that winning would put an end to that, but the only grumbling he has heard has been about the way that they prepare for games, and that he wasn't about to change that aspect.

Jimbo Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 Just as long as he doesn't say "What we do works". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted September 25, 2001 Share Posted September 25, 2001 Hey, I'd be thrilled if he continued to embrace a smash-mouth style. I'd just like him to first demonstrate that style before continuing, that way he can continue. To this point, we've been far less than smash-mouth or a running team. Marty didn't put together his career marks by being stupid. You have to think he'll figure it out, but, again, I'm not sure he's ever had such a miscast concept of what a team should do and have that team so terribly out of place in that role. Keeping the faith though boys . ------------------ Doom is in the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted September 26, 2001 Share Posted September 26, 2001 So far we have been smashed in the mouth than doing the smashing. Raye should look at the tape and copy some of the plays Green Bay used against us. ------------------ Take a sip of the Marty KoolAid and Believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
