The same guy who was riding Livings jock harder than can be, right up to the point where he was cut and NEVER played in the NFL again. "But der da der, he got a big contract in FA!"
Followed up by how brilliant Paul Alexander was, riding his jock right up to the point he got fired only what, 7 games into his first season? "But der da der, he's really respected by the HS conferences!"
Sure wish we were all as smart and infallible as the coaches and Fred.
Livings was released by the Cowboys with an injury settlement.
Alexander I admitted had to go after the Ogbuehi, Fisher draft debacle. But I will still defend his credentials from his coaching career prior to that.
But I honestly do believe that NFL coaches who watch these guys take hundreds of snaps in practice know more bout which ones are the best than the guys here on the message board. Back when the Bengals never had a winning season I could understand calling our coaches "the worst" or an "embarrassment" but since they have been out performing most other teams in the league it seems kind of silly.
Bengals need to improve, but that does not mean that every single move they make is wrong. It would be impossible for Marvin to have a winning record against other NFL coaches if that was true. We just have too many drama queens with serious victim mentality around here. They don't want to just criticize the coaching and playing ability. Instead they want to make it personal by claiming the coaches and players have serious character flaws where they are intentionally doing things to upset fans and lose games.
