Time to move on from Frank Pollack

Those 3 first half sacks, all on 3rd downs were drive killers, drives that likely could have ended in scores putting the game out of reach before the half.  Down inside the 5, not being able to move a defensive front that was beaten up pretty good by the 49ers just the week before off of the ball is simply unacceptable.  

As fans it's frustrating to watch, all we can do is come on here and grumble about it.  So with that in mind, if the Bengals elect to make a change at the OL coaching position, who would you like to see them target for the job?

I get the "move on..." but at some point i have to ask myself; why can't an experienced Oline guy keep his head up and notice when someone is looping around. Especially after it happens a couple times? Especially especially when it happens on 3rd down a couple times. You gotta know it's coming. It's like they drop their head and lock in on a particular guy. That's simply not a good offensive lineman. 

I can see it happening to Volson over and over. He's just not good but i thought Karras was better than that.
