We knew Mike made same historic mistake as father when he let Walsh go. Choosing Marvin over Zimmer will go down as the worse decision made by the Brown family and will set the franchise back another 25 years.

We knew Zampese had plenty chances to be OC and no other team ever wanted him.

We knew we haven't had a run game since Ced B was carrying the rock.

We knew Marvin has never been able to fix the D without Zimmer.

We knew our LB's would struggle given the Haslett hire and his Defenses over the years.

We knew cause we were shocked that we lost the wrong Hayes, and replaced him with someone who has been out of the league for years.

We knew Green was overrated and never showed up in big games. Or consistently every week.

We knew this Oline was overrated.

We knew Ced O was a significant reach as most pundits had him going in the 3rd round.

We knew we just don't have the coaches to win a championship or playoff game.

We knew all good things had to come to an end eventually.

Wow - I wish the players and coaches interviews I've read and heard had as much emotion in them as the thread starter above.  You know its going to get bad when whit has a hoo - hum "we didn't execute on either side of the ball" and "they're  hot right now" and "we played them in their place" and "there is a lot of football left and it's early".  Wasn't too long ago that the locker room policed their own crap up and things got fixed and guys were fired up about playing bad.  At this rate they may go 4-12 or 5-11.   With the 3rd pick of the 2017 NFL draft the Cincinnati Bengals....................   Man - how disappointing.  Losing to a freakin' rookie quarterback and tailback! Ugh!
