Some of our "fans" don't deserve him because they doubted him. They should go be fans of other teams especially after giving up against the Falcons and blaming the loss on Carroll. The game isnt over until the fat lady sings. Get out fake fans
All 121 posts and this is what you think, a lot of us doubted whether his methods would work with Veteran Pro players, I don't think anyone thought he wasn't a good football guy.
Then again most of us came clean and were impressed with the way he came about inplementing his system.
I suppose those that doubted Mora, Holmgren, Erickson,Flores, Patera,Knox were not real fans either during those eras
Pete made three calls for sure that changed the outcome of that game, 2 fourth down calls and the iceing the kicker call. Hind sight is perfect. During the season many times all or any one of those were working. If we get that first down he's gutsy and confident, fail and he's a goat, if the Kicker would have made the first kick and missed the second he's a genius.
In this case things didn't work out so he's the goat instead of the hero for a day. Then again everything after 7 - 9 this year was a bonus, winning 11 games and going to the playoffs bonus, winning in Washington Bonus, trying to be the first team since the 89 Rams to win two play off games bonus, we just didn't get that one.
All this stuff with rookie QB that everyone thought would be at best a back up that he spoon fed till he was ready to take the full load.
Pete has made mistakes before and admitted them, he made calls this last weekend and defended them as his choices, I appreciate someone that will stand up and not make excuses for something not working.
