We saw that last year. 2 years ago people thought Guenther was the problem. We get rid of him and the defense is way worse.

Same with Alexander. We bring Pollack in, add Glenn and Price...and the line improved some, but was still bad overall.

There needs to be accountability on BOTH players and coaches to perform.

I have to agree. Take Ross for example. The coaches last year had to design plays for him in the red zone to get any use out of him at all. The area between the 20s is where Ross should excel, but he kept looking completely lost in his routes. Maybe Ross will respond well to Taylor or maybe he won't. The last coaching staff got a lot of production out of Green, Sanu, Jones, Tate and Boyd, so to blame them for Ross' disappointing first two seasons is rather not supported by facts.
