Smith said he no trouble understanding the calls and getting them radioed to him in time. There was one delay-of-game penalty against the 49ers, late in the third quarter, but it had nothing to do with communications: Tight end Vernon Davis was late getting on the field following a kickoff.
"The buckle came loose on my helmet," he said. "I had to get my helmet adjusted."
Smith said he thought Davis might have anticipated a TV timeout that didn't come. He called it "a freak thing."
Like I said, the problems w/ the 9ers last night were all on the field. You can't blame coaches for the turnovers that falls on the players Smith, Gore, Walker, and Adams.
this too?
they had to take a timeout b/c they only had 10 men on the field. AND this came right after the saints took their timeout. How do u have all that dead time to set a play and fail to get ready still?
we can go back and forth all day. However, the point is, there's definitely room for improvement and mistakes like these should not continue to happen.
So what? The result of the timeout call kept them out of the endzone, plus manusky called a good game against the saints. 1 burned timeout doesn't equal 4 turnovers.
