Who did he think the Bears were?
He should be angry at that O-line of his, at his stupid insistance on running Edge between the tackles, and at an offensive plan that didn't include blocking the best linebacker in football in the second half.

I lost in fantasy football by 4 fucking points.. I have edge and boldin (boldin did great) but they fucking SUCK so bad at running the ball with edge. That Oline sucks soo fucking bad. They had so many chances to score, but they would just run it for 1 yard 1st and 2nd down then either convert on 3rd and repeat the process or fail on 3rd and punt!

I was 1st in the only league I was in last year.... now i'm last (out of 4) Green should have fired the o-line coach.

What is your league's scoring system?

Cards fire offensive coordinator
http://news.cincypost.com/apps/pbcs....610180320/1035
I agree with I Go To Costco. The O-line coach should have gotten the axe.
CARDINALS FIRE ROWEN - Arizona Cardinals coach Dennis Green fired offensive coordinator Keith Rowen on Tuesday and replaced him with quarterbacks coach Mike Kruczek.
The move came hours after the Cardinals blew a 20-point lead and lost to the Chicago Bears 24-23 on Monday night.
Kruczek becomes Green's third offensive coordinator in the coach's 2½ seasons in Arizona. Rowen took the job after Alex Wood was fired following the 2004 season.
Kruczek also will remain as quarterbacks coach, a job he has held since Green arrived.
Arizona has lost five straight since a season-opening victory over San Francisco and is 12-26 since Green took over. The Cardinals play at winless Oakland on Sunday.
Arizona is 14th in the NFL in points per game. Some of the other offensive statistics, though, are ugly. The Cardinals are 23rd in total offense, 25th in yards per play, 31st in yards rushing per game and 32nd in rushing yards per attempt.

Arizona has too many 350Ilbs. + linemen,they need to take a page out of the Bronco's play book and try to get linemen with better technique who can zone block instead of gurads being payed liked tackles(Len Davis 375 Ilbs) who cant really move and block on the second level of defensive fronts.
How else do you explain Edge's 36 carries for 55 yards.He hasn't lost that much of a step.And I feel sorry for Leinart having his blind side protected by Oliver Ross.........who???

The thing is, as productive as Edge has been--and I may get jumped by a slew of Dallas people--I think he's the product of the Emmitt Smith career. The O-line in Indy is fantastic. And couple that with a tremendous QB who can also throw the ball at will, a RB's gonna have his holes...I mean, look at the no-names running in Indy now.
Put it this way, if Edge was as good as people say he is, he'd be able to put up some yardage. Example: Sweetness, Barry Sanders.

Dennis Green is just jealous and irritated that the Bears beat his Vikings teams and now his Cardinal team now.
Dennis Green is what I thought he was an overrated coach!

Seriously though, I agree that he doesn't have much to work with...we've all heard the horror stories about the Cardinal's owners.
But we haven't seen them progress at all while he's been there. The O-line hasn't improved a bit, and to me that's one of the most important peices of a good football team. I just don't think he's doing a good with the important things like this (see Phesto's post above)

Well, Rackers was arguably the best kicker in the league last year.
I personally knew it was a fluke since I saw his true colors when he was in Cinci before he went to the Cards :wink:
Honestly, I think he'll turn it around. I just don't think he's any good under pressure. Not everybody is Adam Vinateri

I went on Wikipedia and looked at Dennis Green's coaching record and aside from some success in Minnesota and 1 Aloha bowl with Stanford, his coaching record stinks!!!!
I copy/pasted his coaching record from Wikipedia.
