I think we should trade Dalton and Green

Maybe running more RPO plays for driskel wouldn't of fit with the horrid line? Having them not knowing if it's run or pass sounds like a recipe for a QB death on the field. Maybe Lazor wasn't familiar enough with that sort of offense? Again, I am not sure, but what I do know is they have has the same lack of success as ML has. Everybody wanted him out like the plague, but our darling QB and WR are immune from these sorts of talks because we now want to pin all this on ML? It  has to be 100,000% ML fault is kinda silly IMO. 

We should look to upgrade any position on the team. I don't know why people are so in love with players and not fielding the best possible team to win a SB. I don't give a dam if it's Rudy from ND catching a football, just give me the best players. If it's AJ, great! One less player we have to worry about. I just don't know why people get some defensive when talking about upgrading the TEAM at certain positions. Then throw slights at them because we want to think about all potential options. It's whatever.

I'm really not defensive about anything my friend.  If you'll read back in this thread, I'm for trading/cutting everyone if we're going full rebuild.  If the new guy thinks he can win with what we have, then so be it.  Having said that, you know all to well that even the best players will ultimately fail if coaching doesn't put them in the best position to win, or doesn't adapt to player strenghts; i.e., shoving round pegs in square holes.  Look at Pig Pen's first SB win....he had a 35 passer rating.   Marvin was a mediocre HC at best.  At the first sign of adversity over the years, like INTs or fumbles, his teams folded.  Then they melted down when they had one in the bag.

I can go either way, full on rebuild, or giving these guys another shot with fresh ideas.  There's no denying the team has major holes now, but in years past, that was not the case.  His record against Pitt is almost unfathomable.  Now there's talk of him going there.

EDIT: Look at our own history at what Sam Wyche did against a team full of HOFers in the SB with his QB nursing a bum shoulder, and his starting NT going out early. That's what I'm getting at here....innovation. We lost.....but Sam's innovative ideas made a team with one HOFer a juggernaut for a stretch.
