Take Lou for example he knew his linebackers would be weak this year and have growing pains, so he tried to stack the D-line and help improve the secondary.
But when your down 4 interior defensive lineman (Daniels, Wren, Tupou, Atkins) and your CB (Waynes), you have to rely on your other players to step-up and when those players are the linebackers that you knew were going to have a lot of growing pains and your playing Cleveland that has one of the best one-two punches at RB in the last decade in Hunt and Chubb on a short week, that team is more then likely gonna run it down your throat.
Regardless of whether your defensive coordinator is Lou or Tom Landry.
Again they have to improve, but I'm going to be reasonable about it.
The offensive line needs to improve they allowed Joe Burrow to have 2.4 seconds a throw against the Browns, I'd like to see that around 3.0 to 3.2.
I generally don't like firing during mid-season unless it's just a complete cluster.
If they get 6-8 wins they'll probably be back.
6 to 8 wins? are you serious after watching that OLine and D get carved up on run again? Are we forgetting we play Steelers 2X, Ravens 2x and The Browns again? thats 5 more losses putting them at 7 losses for sure.
Whats the over under in Burrow making it past game 6 without an injury? I was sweating it watching weenie arm Finely go in after Burrow looked like he got whiplash. Its just a matter of time before its lights out. The fact that Zack Taylor thought he had a good O line coming into this yr shows that he is as bad as evaluating talent as Duke Tobin.
