I've said it for weeks now, whoever made the call to stick with Ogbuehi after week 1 should have been fired in the PBS locker room as soon as they came off the field last Sunday. That was pathetic, and likely cost us any shot of postseason play.....that and sticking with No Make Nuge.
Loyalty/patience cost us a season. If fans were calling for Ogbuehi to be benched after game 1 and calling for Nuge to be cut after his ominous preseason, how did coaches not see it? The answer is probably that they did, but stuck it out with "their guys".
To OP, whoever this writer is, he's pretty awesome. Spot on with 99% of it. Like Wyche said, I'm not sure about Zampese...but you can at least make some excuses for him (first year, injuries, o-line issues). I'm disgusted that PA has a job right now though. No successful franchise would tolerate the year he just had.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
