This man is an IDIOT, at best. Everyone talks about Nate Davis' learning disability, maybe we need to take a look at Raye's. If the offensive cordinator can't even remember what the plays are called, then he has no business being in the NFL. Period. End of debate. Go take a nap somewhere else!

An issue that relates to Nate is the lack of continuity and sequencing of plays. Raye seems to call plays at random - one play rarely seems to set up another. If he used a script or series of plays that relate to one another, it might be easier for Nate to remember what he is supposed to do. Total speculation on my part regarding Davis buit the lack of purpose in play sequencing is not. That is fact!

He was chosen because Linehan turned us down and Raye fits what Sing was trying to do. RUN THE BALL


If s**t dont change we need to can Raye and promote Mike Johnson for the rest of the season then see whats available at the end of the year

exactly. Singletary wanted an old school offense, that would pound the rock. Raye fit the bill. Raye fails, Singletary fails. Get them both the f' out.

Because he threatened to eat brains if he was not hired.

Because of he wasn't hired, Raye was never going to take his hat off.

because singletary wanted old school, and he wanted it literally

Like everyone else has said, sing wanted a Guy who would run the ball before passing it. Also he did say when he was looking for an OC that he wanted someone who would stay ands not leave like the previous 4 coordinators. Obviously raye wont leave cause no one else in the league wants him

yup. kindda like marrying an ugly chick who can't really cook worth a s**t. Sure she can make you some basic eggs and toast, but don't expect any home cooked, 4 course meals that wont make you wanna puke your brains out.

God f**king damnit!

We would be set if Sing didn't scare Linehan out of the job with this stupid "run, run, run," prehistoric bulls**t philosophy. Get the f**k out of here man!

Because he was the only person they could find who would take the job. Let's face it, at the time it was a mediocre offensive team with talent sprinkled here and there. [Gore primarily]

Then a coach [Sing] who communicated that he wanted a run-oriented first offense. Add to that, the previous uncertainty in decision making from the front office and it spells - lack of job security.

Who wants to take a job that handcuffs your potential success by limiting how you do your job. Basically, you are set up to look like a failure which kills your value on the market to grow your earnings and kills your advancement.

Raye is going nowhere - he has hit the highest he'll ever get. And, in my opinion, so have we if he stays on the job.

Raye had the experience Sing was looking for, but the problem is Raye's a dumb ass and about to croak any minute. If he stinks it up this year, it will probably be his last with us and I don't think they have any confidence in Johnson, so we'll be in the market for a new Qb and OC most likely next year.

yeah that pound the rock worked great vs Seattle. (27 new players and a new head coach) wow

Sing had no connections.

Check out one of barrows tweets from yesterday. He basically said if smith doesn't work out that sing is gone, because they shouldn't let him choose the next qb. Goodbye to all three
