    Excellent article. Slight nit: the Fiesta Bowl in question was 2007, not 2008.

    Yeah. So did I.

    I dunno. Smith is clearly learning on the job which sucks. As I replied to Tequilla in the thread where @Gladstone has gone OBK on me Smith was clearly not the right hire but now that he is making improvement maybe he can be the right guy going forward. I appreciate and recognize @EsophagealFeces concern that it is too little too late because we still aren't there in terms of play calling. I don't think Petersen needs to stick with Smith and would happily welcome a proven, capable OC to replace Smith. I don't think replacement is the only possible route to success though. Maybe it is and in a year our offense will still suck and we'll need to clean house again. As @Dennis_DeYoung there is no fucking way Petersen is replacing Smith and I think that is probably true. Only time will tell.

    This is really why I'm so fucking mad. I could deal with this shit if I thought there was hope it would end after the year. I have no confidence that Pete will do what needs to be done. That's the most disappointing thing.
