I'm totally kidding, Andy you seem to get more stupid every year.
This isn't the first time we put one a stinker when we should win easy. We have at least a game like this every year. This looked so much like 08 against the Bengals, the 2007 against the Packers, 2009 against the ravens, 2011 against the Cardinals, 49ers, Bills and basically all of last season.
Yes, Andy wasn't the one thrown back into Vick's face nor the interceptions came from his passes. But you can't pass the ball 50+ times against what was a top 3 pass defense and bottom run defense.
I don't mean this to be a "the sky is falling" thread, but at some point you have to say enough is enough. He's had 13 years to learn from his mistakes but he refuses to do so. Yes, we have a product to cheer for every year but we have been fooled to expect a different result when we are watching the same season over and over.
Andy keeps us competitive but never will make us the team we can. We are stuck we a coach who is too good to get fired but not good enough to win it all and although there is not a sure formula for winning the Super Bowl teams seem to be passing us by. I challenge Andy's supporters to defend him after this.

Best thread title to opening line transition EVER!
The obvious defense is: who are you going to replace him with? Sometimes, the grass isn't always greener on the other side.

Bowles could be capable of replacing him, chances are he won't surpass his success but at some point we have to look somewhere else. I think Andy could win the Super Bowl if he could learn from his mistakes and have someone else take responsibilities away from him.
We have seen coaches less capable than Andy win the Lombardi because they didn't have as much responsibility of their team and had other people make up for their shortcomings.

^^^Those are the type of things that annoy me about Andy. Not understanding the fact that their defense was able to pin their ears back and send everyone at Vick just about every play without fear of LeSean McCoy, one of the best backs in the league, is ridiculous. Granted, throwing get more yardage but running the ball gives you control and thats something we never had during the game despite McCoy getting his 20 carries and 100+ yards.

I'd prefer to promote from within. If we got rid of Reid, Morninwheg and Castillo would most likely be gone as well. Hopefully we can keep Mudd and Wash. Make Bowles the HC and let him hire his OC and DC. I really don't see any better options. And our assistant coaches under Andy always seem to have success elsewhere. Yet we keep letting the good ones go.

Why didn't Vick audible some of those passes into run plays?

He probably wanted to but would look over and see Andy making a throat cutting gesture with his finger on the sideline

God no!
We need to get rid of the Reid stench. I also think that should extend to the front office.
