Sounds like you are hoping for failure just to get rid of him.


I hated on PA probably more than anyone but he did have some good O-lines. But that was mostly cause the players he got 
were really talented in Willie, Levi, Bobbie, Steinbach, Whit, Braham etc. These guys were polished, when he tried to teach up
unpolished players he just couldn't do it and PA had a monster ego which was his worst problem.


I am not forgetting that is for damn sure which is why I like Pollack so much. If you don't like Pollack either you got problems.

We will see.

1. Taylor is a loser, he'll never win a playoff game here. Hell, I doubt he ever has a winning record here. We'll need another Marvin type to get us out of this second lost decade.

2. I'm just a realist. We brought Zac in to get us over the Marv hump, but after two years of him shitting the bed we're talking about a 1-3 year rebuild. He's had three drafts with his inept fingerprints all over it and two of the biggest FA spending sprees we've ever seen. It all resulted in a regression that makes Dave Shula look semi competent.

3. PA is a moot point at this time. Everyone wanted him gone. I gave him his props for what he did, but he was past his prime. 

4. Pollock is better than Turner, but he's not the cure all everyone here seems to think. That great Dallas line he had, he inherited. He didn't magically make our line better in 2018. He didn't do much for the Jets either in his two years there.

Like your last line says, we will see. But if anyone has delusions of grandeur that Zac and co. are finally gonna just "get it" in the third year of an historically bad run... eh.
