The offenses have been held to 300 or less total yards 5 times and the offensive lines gave up 22 sacks.
The defenses allowed 144 or more yards rushing 6 times and allowed opposing QB's to complete 69% of their passes.
The team failed to score a point for a complete half 5 different times (4 times in the 2nd, once in the 1st).
There are individual players here and there who played well, but as a whole, these teams have looked unprepared and overmatched. There have been different QB's, different coordinators, different backs, receivers, etc...but only one HC, and under his direction the results have been consistently and embarrassingly bad. That's not a coincidence, it's a failure of leadership and coaching ability.
It's not just PO games. It's all/most prime time games. Hell, it's even a lot of 1pm games because "halftime adjustments" usually shut us down until Dalton makes his miraculous late 4th quarter comeback or we just barely hang on. We hardly ever smoke a opponent.
Hence why " it's never easy with this team" hence "cardiac cats".
With this said i'm not opposed to drafting a QB if it's a smart choice nor am i opposed to open competition. Preferably under a new coach not named Hue.
