I like Lafleur and wish him nothing but the absolute best. Unfortunately, he’s in over his head and I believe he’ll be fired sooner rather than later. We’re just wasting time. Murphy doesn’t have any stones to make a very difficult decision and move on from Gutey, Lafleur and Rodgers. He’s an assclown. When he’s forced at when he turns 70, hopefully the next President of the organization will have a set of stones to actually fire people and hire people who will have the strength to move things from passive to kicking arse. Until we change our philosophy We’re not going to win another super bowl. It’s time for change.

The scariest part about keeping Barry is I remember some of the players criticizing the scheme mid-season. Yikes.

How does a HC not call 1 of your 2 timeouts left after hitting a big play ( 23 yards) and your team was desperately trying to get everyone lined up to run another play at your 40 yard line. You went from 1:14 start of the play to :38 to snap your next play which resulted in a sack. If you called timeout immediately you probably have a minute to get the team settled and plays thought out , surely 1 timeout and freshly lined up with Rodgers was a was way more manageable. The pick followed the sack and the rest is history
Nobody talks about this sequence but I remember it as the non call that changed the game going into half. This was when I started to focus more on Lafleur and his ability to coach, so nothing surprises me with his inability to make good decisions regarding how the team moves forward with coaches .

That was the Tampa playoff game that led to a 2qtr touchdown with no time remaining in case someone doesn’t remember.

I agree. Murphy is a weak leader and he does appear to be waiting on an approaching retirement. When the defense goes backwards, particularly the entire secondary and DL, someone needs to be held accountable. Gutey has made some poor decisions for sure! Lots of issues with poor performance on the part of players. Is this coaching? Schemes? Some accountability is needed!
