Mike Brown Calling Out Coaching For Poor Start

He lost the two best Olinemen in FA. Signed retread Andre Smith. Then drafted two offensive skill players in the first two rounds of the draft with injury or character concerns. I've seen this movie before and know the ending. Twenty-six years on the job and he still hasn't learned a damn thing.

No coach would have done better if saddled with this GM/owner. The problem isn't the talent, the problem isn't the coaching. The problem is how you run the team as GM and owner, Mike. Twenty-six years and there is one common denominator.

Dunno.

We heard PA (who I think I'm his last supporter) say the 2016 line couldn't get any better because the improvements needed to happen in the off-season. We had the off-season, and the line got worse. 

Brown's statement may not have been entirely directed at any single coach. Maybe it was all of them. Without any context, who knows. Maybe he was specifically referring to PA and the line. Maybe it was to Zampesse, who is already gone. Maybe it was Marvin.

I guess the only way we know for sure is to keep losing. Which, I don't want to happen. I've been Marvin's biggest critic at times and would love to have a decent HC. But I don't want to lose more games to have that happen. I remember the 90s. Losing is a culture. Once you develop it, it's hard to overcome. That's, in my opinion, a big part of our playoff issue. We have a culture where 'getting there is good enough.'
