I don't expect anyone to bite their tongue. This is the place to mouth off and state your opinion. I doubt VERY seriously that anything posted on here is read by the coaches anyway. I would certainly hope that they have more important things to do right now.
You're right though, it certainly appeared that Shula lost his composure. That's something that great coaches don't do. I don't remember that happening very often to Bryant, Don Shula, Landry, etc., but I also don't remember ever seeing any footage of their early coaching days when they were in their sophomore year of head coaching responsibilities. I'm willing to bet that even they had to do a little learning from experience. At least I certainly hope so. I have no problem holding Shula accountable though. Anything less would be overly patronizing, I'm just saying that I'm still quite happy with him and he has my support. I'm actually glad to see the apparent flurry of f-bombs flying on the sidelines. He's lost a lot of that deer in the headlights glaze and is showing who's in charge. > > >I'd love to see Shula succeed, and I think he'll be >given more than a fair opportunity to do so.
