An OC who has a rookie QB behind a crap OL and yet still calls an offense that is going to have said rookie QB throw the 5th most pass attempts in NFL history and a DC who alienates his best DL and forces a revolt on his defense (while still getting run all over) limited the offense and defense.

They're both in way over their heads as OC/DC, man. Yes the DL Coach and OL Coach needed to go, but it's just re-arranging the chairs on the deck of the Titanic while Taylor/Anarumo are still in charge of the offense and defense.

Taylor seems like a decent guy, and people seem to like him, but that doesn't mean he's a good OC.

Why did the offense have so many passing attempts? Because the Offensive line failed to open holes in the run game forcing the offense to pass to stay on time. The lack of a run offense also limited the playbook. 

Why did the team have an issue with Carlos Dunlap? Because he started to freelance outside of the defensive scheme placing his individual stats over the defense as a whole.
