raysnill1 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I heard Hue burned the bridge in Atlanta when he wasn't considered after the Petrino fiasco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyBirdDynasty Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Hue had a good reputation up until Al Davis died and he promoted himself to GM for life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEORGIAfan Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I am hearing that Hue is a Me type guy, so I am worried about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM12 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I am hearing that Hue is a Me type guy, so I am worried about that.You want your coach to tread the fine line between confidence and arrogance. Add in the raiders filter and who knows what he is like.Seems quite likeable for the most part? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyBirdDynasty Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I am hearing that Hue is a Me type guy, so I am worried about that.Like I said.Once Davis died he basically decided to make himselves Raiders coach and GM for life by stepping into the void and trading picks from 2 future drafts to try to make himself irremovable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEORGIAfan Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 not gonna lie kinda jealous of the bengals future. Dalton seems like a pretty good qb. probably going to be on a similar level of eli manning and the rest of the 2nd tier guys. Have a stud WR in AJ Green, and a good 2nd guy in jerome Simpson. and now they have potentially two first rounders in the next two years to improve on that.

ol'_dirty2 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Hue has that arrogance you like to see from a competitor. Even as a coach. The problem there is he seems to have a hard time accepting blame for his part in failure. No matter who you are in an organization, when your team doesn't win it's WE fell short. I expected more out of US. WE just didn't put our best foot forward.We don't want a guy who, similarly to Mularkey, sees that his playcalls and his plays are the end all be all and it's the palyers fault for whatever goes wrong on the field. If some arse chewing is in order then the media is not the arena for it...do it in your post game meeting or on the sidelines. Don't alienate yourself from all the wrong that is going on around you since as the head coach it really all starts an ends with you. All I'm saying. However, I think he could get the job done with a little more excitement and creativity than we've seen around here as of late. Just seems to be that ticking timebomb type case though.

Flying Falcon Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 All of you all are giving reason of why not to bring him here, but you all are giving reason from the HC position. The others were talking about from the OC position. When have you all heard MM taking blame for our offense struggles over the last few years?

When have you all heard MM taking blame for our offense struggles over the last few years?We already did that....Joey Harrington,....Byron Leftwich...now I will give him very littke credit for making the offense move with Redman under Thomas. However, 2007still did not exist in my eyes and shall never be spoken about again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice of Reason Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Here's a reason some of you seem to miss - he's never been a true OC. He's always had others calling the plays or designing the offenses.I'd prefer an OC that knows what he's doing. I'm tired of projects in our coaching staff.

Jax Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Are you serious?Have you forgotten Hue Jackson's stint as Offensive Coordinator here in 2007 when the immortal Joey Harrington was QB.All I remember is a bunch of 3 yard curl routes all game. Thats why Joey Harrington had the best completion percentage of his career when he was here. A bunch of easy curls and outs that never challenge the defense.Sorry but PLEASE no Hue Jackson back on Falcons sideline.I would rather have Mike Martz.

The Falcon Jedi Knight Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Hue is not coming back here. 1) he basically told the Falcon FO to go F themselves when they made Emmit Thomas interim coach. 2) he was accused of sabotaging the previous Raiders coaching staff when he was OC there. The guy is a snake and a cancer, and his own players didnt like him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't. He may have burned his bridge here, but if so that's a shame. I'd LOVE to see Hue Jackson as our o-coordinator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
