For some reason we are OK with blaming Marvin/Zampese/PA/Austin/Lazor for making entire seasons worthless, but not with the notion that Rosen might not be an insa-bust because Steve Wilks, Byron Lewftwich, and Mike McCoy (all them let go during the year or after it) were season-killing coaches.Exactly. I never suggested that Rosen is the answer at all but seems really unfair to hold him to high standards because he was drafted in a shitty situation with a dysfunctional front office yet we are quick to point out everything that went wrong because Mike Brown runs the team or because Marvin didn't give Auden Tate enough snaps. FWIW, I think Arizona ends up holding onto Rosen and they'll trade down from the 1st pick.
So the 2nd HC and 3rd OC for Ross will finally give him a shot to succeed, but we don't need to see what Rosen can do with a coaching staff that isn't gone in an instant before we pronounce his career dead. Again, I'm not sold on Rosen, but that seems a bit unfair.
