I agree with you Bleeding I fly my flag proudly every game but I am very disappointed with Dumb and Dumber. Using Clark for an example was exactly what I'm talking about. Grade school offensive play calling and can't make adjustment when needed. Stew's a nice guy but far from college material. Brown if he's going to finish out the year he needs to be about 4 seconds faster in his decision making.Stew and Mullins need to go.

I still love my gold & blue,but am very dissapointed with the apparent ineptness of the coaching staff . Why they do not use what is working , In the cincy game clark was working up the middle and they benched him to run outside which was mostly working for a loss time after time.I think it is time to take a long hard look at the coaching staff and their play calling ( maybe a change is in order) JUST MY TAKE!!
