Look, Raye has been doing this since dinosaurs roamed the earth. Talk about trying to teach an old dog new tricks, good luck. We can't blame Raye, this is what he knows; his playbook for a thousand years. Sure he is calling the plays, but these are the ONLY plays he knows. It was a poor hire by Sing, and this is Sing's puppet. We drafted 2 OLmen to run this offense - I think we need to cut this guy a break...he is doing what he knows; that's it. We had Martz, that didn't work and he is the diametrical opposite. I just think that Raye is doing what he can with what he has...and is being forced to do what Sing wants...that's it. I don't know a ton about football, but I am assuming that if the coach didn't like the plays being called, he would change the s**t? Raye is running Sing's offense...that is what he is paid to do, and that is why Raye won't be going anywhere. Does it suck? f**k ya it does. But what do you expect? Do we think Raye is going to tell Singletary anything? Nope! It is Sing's way or the highway... Tired of losing..... 9r4lf

HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW WHAT YAHOO IS?!?!

/end anger

I don't think anyone is denying the fact that he sucks. He was a horrible hire from day one and has not proved otherwise, but at the same time this is all he knows, he can't or won't change. As for not nothing what Yahoo is, that just proved how outdated he is.

I think at this point, Alex would rather have a new OC and new system.

I blame Singletary for hiring Raye. We all knew it was a bad hire but Singletary scared of any qualified OC's and went with a 64yr old OC who had one or two good years as an OC and it was in 1984.

Singletary F'd himself hiring Raye and he deserves the blame.

This is beginning to go into Jed's backyard now. We didn't give his dad one inch yet Jed gets a disappointing 2010 season and now 0-3 without his name and s**tty President being talked about in the same sentence.

This is on him.
