  1. The quote about player personnel is being taken completely out of context. I listened to the presser, and MOS said that he has always had the final say on player personnel. People just seemed to believe that Etch had final say, but MOS says he has all along and that won't change going forward...

  2. So, anyhow, the MOS presser is on now......

     

    Sounds like the decision was all MOS's......at least according to him. Lawless tried to bait him into the whole "Stopping the run doesn't matter" thing, and MOS says that was only an issue for media and fans. 

     

    Says he wanted to make a lot of changes for next year, and Etch just wouldn't be able to believe in all of those changes, so they had to part ways. 

     

    Bringing Bellefuille back because it would be detrimental to Drew Willy to change coordinators and make him learn a whole new system again.

  3. Etch looked like a world beater early in the year, when our D starters were still healthy. As we suffered a ton of injuries and our complete and utter lack of depth was exposed, Etch's D *seemed* worse and made him look worse than he should have. Really unfair situation, and I feel bad for both him and his family, but such is life. As long as it's a proven-successful replacement, I'm cool with it.

  4.  

    Lots about Wild to like but he's too small to play MLB every play and with both the other LB spots trending into coverage jobs I'm not sure he's actually as valuable as we feel he is.

    Sears, meanwhile, is hurt a lot. I personally don't view these guys as top end free agents who NEED to be signed.

    Not to bash them because I do like both players I just don't think they are among the best defenders in the league or anything.

    Calling bullshit on Wild being too small to play MLB every play. He may be smaller than the the prototype but the guy is just a damned good tackler and he is a guy who you notice when he's not in the lineup. He gets all over the field and is always involved in the play. This team needs more guys like that not less. 

     

    Sears is hurt a lot and it is a concern, but when he's in the lineup he's a star. A flat out playmaker. 

     

    Not at all comparing them as players, but the "negative" talk around Wild is errily reminiscent of Wickman....
