Why AJ is hurtning us!!! i will never ever forget the one play today. LT had 3 consecutive decent runs. and then its 2nd and 7, and they ("they") call a 4th consecutive running play, it looked like a sweep. how dumb was that. LT was finding room up the middle all game long too. he gets stopped trying to run around 3 defenders to the left edge and gets a 5yd loss. i have never been a huge smith supporter, but this game isnt his fault. we had the personnel. they just werent used right
Why AJ is hurtning us!!! "AJ Smith is well-known outside of the Chargers circle therefore he must be getting involved where he shouldn't and causing a problem by brining in the press and thus he is hurting us" That's a damn good argument just like "Obama is famous and therefore is only as qualified as other celebrities and thus not ready to be president." Sorry, political science major - BUT it is apt. has a little straw-man in it but mostly applicable.
Why AJ is hurtning us!!! Not even close!!! But hey, if you guys believe that someone with a coaching record and history like Cowher or Billick will come running to the office, bend over, take AJ's hand in their a**, and be AJ's puppet... I guess you also believe in the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, and maybe even The Great Pumpkin.
Why AJ is hurtning us!!! All of that is speculation, nothing fact-based. Hell Cowher is not even on the "available" sheet and neither is Billick yet. We did what every NFL team does, interviewed and vetted each candidate. Norv was a favorite since he had already worked in San Diego. Though I must admit your ranting got me thinking and I believe this may be a command-and-control approach coming from management. Maybe Mr. Spanos should have AJ loosen the reins a little bit when they start looking for another head coach. But hey! The Redskins stuck with Norv after "just missing" their stride. Maybe the Chargers will do it too and we can have the fella here for a good seven more years! I'm on board for one though. Let's not fire him yet.
Why AJ is hurtning us!!! Well yeah. Let's finish the season and see who is available. With that said, AJ needs to either shape up or ship out. Though if we have an opportunity to pick up someone like Billick, Gruden, Cowher, etc. and that means ditching AJ... we should send him packing!!! All this crap about "he got us an AFCC appearance"... SO WHAT?!!! That doesn't put a trophy in our empty case!!!! As I keep reminding all the Norvys in here... this was/is suppose to be a "Super Bowl or Bust season!!!" Guess what direction we're headed in.
Pats don't have a GM position. Belichick is de facto GM, as he fulfills those functions normally done by a GM.
OK. Bad example but let's get to the point of this thread... It is nationally known that any HC working with AJ will have very little control here. If you're not willing to crawl up his *** and die, he won't like you and will call you our publicly. No respectable HC wants to set themselves up to be humiliated and discredited. Anymore denial?
Why AJ is hurtning us!!! Obviously you need a refresher. Take a look at the SN of who your talking too. Ya. BTW why does someone who has B4life Sn not only is the biggest whiner, but the biggest band wagon fan on the board?
I asked a couple of my friends who the Charger GM was, and they know football, they didn't know. Although they did know their own GM. Its like me saying: "Everyone knows that B4life is a troll"
Why AJ is hurtning us!!! You don't know me. I've been a fan all the way through since the late 70's and a season ticket holder since 2000. Yeah, I bought them right after the Leaf era. People were really tearing down the walls to get em' at that time!!!! I've been at every single home game since I've lived in San Diego and had season tickets. As a customer, I have the right to be pissed off, especially when the prices keep going up. What have you done to support the team, trash?
As I mentioned earlier... "my friends back east know who AJ is and about the feud between him and Marty before I told them. They're Ravens, Steelers, Skins, and Eagles fans."
My post was in response to Zeus, tough guy. And just about everything anyone posts here is OPINION BASED, just most of us don't try to pass our opinions off as facts.
There's only a few GMs I can name that that's the way it should be. BOTTOM LINE... AJ shouldn't call the HC out in the press just because he doesn't like him. That keeps great HC from coming over here!!!
This answer should have debunked, and ended the thread... :lol: I have friends who are specifically Green Bay, Denver, Vikings, Bears, Colts, Faiders, yes Faiders, Cheatriots, fans, and they all talk about their GMs, etc, know all the ins and outs like we do for the bolts.
