That's what I was immediately thinking. I doubt there would be a conference about McNair unless it was something really bad.
Best thing that ever happened to Fassel, even he can't polish a turd like Jamal Lewis
P
I always thought the turd he was supposed to be polishing, was Boller?I guess in Baltimore it goes - new year, new turd
As per PFT:FASSEL OUT AS RAVENS OFFENSIVE COORDINATORA league source tells us (and a reader advises us that there's a radio report to this effect) that the Ravens have fired offensive coordinator Jim Fassel.More to come.
I thought Moss was already going to the Steelers, Patriots and Dolphins?
I think the assumption is that Neuheisel can design scoring plays that don't involve bouncing the ball off of another player on the way to the receiver.
I don't remember which teams, but there were definitely a few interested a few years back. IIRC, Fassel was kind of playing it coy, and wound up missing out on opportunities that were subsequently filled.
Guess you missed the sarcasm.
shell isn't OC Fassel's a pretty good coach. I'm not sure why I haven't seen him applying for HC jobs. His Giant teams were sometimes frustratingly bad and sometimes way better than expected(Supe). He's also a close friend of Billick's so I bet this was a difficult move for Brian
Shortly after being fired by the Giants there was but he wanted a year off, then wanted to stay involved and took an almost consultant role with Balt.
If it's not clear now that when he was succesful with the Giants it was a result of Sean Payton and John Fox he will further prove it with another ####ty performance as a coach.Sure, most coaches would. Fassel established himself as an O cooridinator and became coach of the Giants. That job is probably simple to him now. The Ravens can't run and keeping Lewis was the wrong move. McNair's hurt and Boller stinks. I saw the pinball throws and catches but even still 3 TDs is probably a high for Boller. I don't see that he was the prob in Balt at all. If anything, the GM goofed. I'd have kept Lewis probably but it's still a mistake and that line needed help it didn't get.When Fassel was with Arizona, old Boomer did pretty well. Post-drinking Kerry looked best under him. I could see Davis liking Fassel.
yeah don't give him credit for them learning under him
Art Shell had this to say about the previous quote:
Having Payton and Fox as your coordinators would make even Thiesman look good
The local radio guys are talking to reporters and "Fassel gone" is all but official. The only intrigue seems to be whether Neuheisel takes over the offense or whether Billick is going to call plays.
Not when it comes to pancakes.
He saved a bunch of money by switching to Geico? - c'mon someone had to say it.
Good thing that hack coach from New England had Charlie Weis and Romeo Crenell on his staff.
Hi Jim. Just wanted to let you know that Rick here is going to put together our game plan and I'm going to call the plays from now on. Do you want to resign, or do I need to fire you.
thanks for the update
