halsey Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 genius fans at least reeves knew what he was doing, and proved he could win in this league.yep, he proved it after many years of coaching, not just 7 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krsnat1 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 genius fans at least reeves knew what he was doing, and proved he could win in this league.another crazy statement. yeah, i liked reeves, thought he should have one more year, but c'mon.reeves never won the super bowl and coached in what four. he also lost the best qb in history in john elway and had a predictable offense. when he was here, 1/2 the fans wanted him gone in 2002-2003. we had two winning seasons with him, not great. i would take my chances with petrino for at least the amount of time mora had to destroy our team.

redhorse Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 i never said anything about firing petrino, that would be as stupid as hiring mora. reeves also took teams to the superbowl against some of the greatest nfl teams in history. it doesnt make him any less of a coach, it's just what he faced. at least he got there. repeatedly. that's fine, you guys were on the fire reeves side. that's cool. you got what you wanted a long time ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f1ver Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 granted, petrino walked into a bad situationlet's not let that fact get in the way of understanding that he's only made it worseby starting harrington, benching harrington, starting leftwich, then starting harrington, then starting leftwich until he got hurt, then starting harrington againand by cutting grady jackson when a simple benching would have been more appropriate and less stupidyou're entitled to lose games with a bad teamyou're not entitled to lose the teami keep saying it, petrino walked into the worst coaching situation probably in nfl history! i hate saying wait untill next year but that's what will will have to do.........

Same Ol Falcons Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 now that's a truly hopeless situation.the last time dook was good was when spurrier was coach there. hey, let's get spurrier to coach the falcons! if he can win at dook he can win anywhere! oops.that's why i don't let people rag on spurrier too much - he won a conference championship at duke <-that's **** near hof right there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Falcon Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 no doubt - this is just like him leaving louisville and taking over duke i don't think petrino has done that bad really aside from the losing record. i mean i've said it many times before but the falcons have been in every game except the game against the aints up untill the 4th.

madfalcon Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 if you want a coach to restore order in the locker room then reeves would be perfect. and if you like predictable, unimaginative playcalling then definitely you'd really want reeves back.
