Is it the coaching or is it some other variables like losing a dozen games in a row. It could be schemes which would indicate coaching by coordinators. But this O-Line has been porous for a while, the talent along the OL and backers just isn't there. Dalton is a year older and injuries appear convenient for some players. Makes me wonder.
Right.
As it nearly always is it's not just one or two things, we've hit the perfect storm. We have a brand new HC that is going thru the learning process nearly all endure. We have brand new OC and DC with little to no experience in those positions. We have an Oline coach with a checkered past and at the very least questionable teaching methods.
We have an awful Oline that either 1. can't run block 2. Doesn't know how to run block 3. Struggle with assignments picking up the blitz.
We have a starting QB who struggles mightily against any pressure at all. We struggle to maintain drives because we can't run the ball. This team has zero margin for error.
We have a defense that has no sideline to sideline speed at LBer and we continue to play just two most often and we get roasted alive outside !
Now the injury/quit list is going thru the roof and I have no idea how they'll ever fix it, this season ?
