Who is to Blame?

I agree, but how do you fire a 15 year head coach?  It isn't easy.  Marv was done, but didn't want to be done...so Brown and his team came up with the "Hue Succession Plan".  It made sense to everyone, or so I thought.  Marv was treated fairly and given one last year to try and get his ring (or even playoff win) and Hue would take over.  The offense was soaring that year, and Paul Alexander was here and I don't think the offensive line was all that different.  There were more veteran weapons, but would anyone not think Malone, Ross, and Core could be doing what Marvin Jones and Mo Sanu were doing?  But, here they sit, getting snaps behind Lafell.  Here sits Mixon, getting snaps behind Hill.  Here sits Carl Lawson, Jordan Willis, and Chris Smith getting snaps at DE behind MJ...(and Dunlap needs to be rotated as well).  Here sits Jordan Evans behind guys like Vinny Rey (and I like Vinny Rey).  

To me, these moronic personnel decisions is killing this team and it can't be very motivating to anyone to see turds trot out there and have such talent wasting on the bench.

This, plus the absolute lack of common sense on offense.  Here is a very simple game plan that I bet would frustrate the piss out of Jax:

Two TEs, unbalanced line with 7 blockers.  Single back.  AJ Green on one side, A rotation of Ross, Malone, and Core on the other.  Dalton under center.  If either DB is off the WR by 8 yards or more.   Throw it to said WR.  That WR has one guy to make miss and he is off to the races.  Either side, that works.  So, the safeties will drop back from the LOS.  Now there are 7 players in the box against your seven linemen.  One miss, and the back is off to the races.  

This may seem incredibly simple, but if you watch how DBs play our WRs, they are rarely up on them (except Lafell, who no one fears getting behind them).  Take the yards the defense gives you.  Once they start sneaking up, pump to that WR, the DB commits, and the WR takes off downfield.  The DB will either hold them or get burnt. 

These coaches try to come up with so many different routes that rarely have time to develop but won't take this one, simple play and make it work.  

Oh, and by the way, your QB is VERY adept at those quick strikes...gets the ball out faster than just about anyone.  

But we are too G)*%$*##  stupid to do this, the TE screen, or have both our RBs on the field together.
