U can judge Frank all u want. His offenses have done quite well before this year. This Oline is a a complete and utter embarrassment. The highest paid and u get that???? I doubt coordinator could scheme with the crap Oline. Anyone remember the great Mahommes in the superbowl when he got crushed by the Oline? Ballard is done and part of me is thank God his investment is playing like this because I want him gone in the worst way 

You can't live off your reputation, all that counts are current events and in the present day, Frank is failing big time! He's supposed to be an offensive genius/QB whisperer, but he doesn't call any plays to take advantage of or make opposing teams pay for an aggressive pass rush. Game after game, this team starts slow and doesn't even begin to produce until the 2nd half, when we usually face a 2 score deficit. The defense usually keeps us in games, but eventually gets worn out by being on the field a ton due to our offensive futility, which is supposed to be Frank's strength.

It is funny but for weeks people are calling for Strausser's head. Our three supposed elite C, RG and RT have been in the league for like 5 years. Where is the accountability with the players? They are getting physically best at point of attack .  Firing Strausser maybe warranted but maybe denying the fact that this is what to expect from these 3 over paid clowns.

Dude... lol....

 

consider two things...

 

We have multiple prior PB guys, who have all declined since Strausser came here. 

And we used to see regular pancakes from our OL until we played a ton of zone scheme.

 

So is about several OLs just getting lazy... Or did one guy lose his unit with bad coaching and/or bad scheme.

Well we will done out next year after a cleaning of the house. Like I said if it is so obvious, I am shocked Irsay hasn't asked for a change in coaching. I am eyeing that #1 pick right now.

Frank told me two things last week... That Marcus Brady was the problem as oc and that Sam had the "sauce!!!" Both Brady and Matt Ryan quietly snicker.....

They all failed to address the real issue in the oline. Ballard paid Nelson 20 million and it looks like he is washed up. Failed to address the loss of jack Doyle too.

    • Thanks for the good wishes. I wish the same for your Vikings. Tough division game for them.   Mixed feelings on our QB. I can't deny Anthony is an amazing athlete, and he's shown flashes of what he can be. Some really wow throws, but misses some lay-up tosses. Seems very intelligent, and wants to win. I'm sure he's like most young Qb's trying to get used to  the speed and talent of NFL Defenses, and maybe being coached to stay in the pocket and not run as much as he did is giving him some trouble. I think 7 games is too few to tell how good or bad he might be eventually. I just hope he can keep healthy, and keep improving.
    • Packers fans can tell me about Joe Barry that was their DC from 2021-23. They were always in the Top 12-15 range in terms of points per game as opposed to the Colts.   But the year 2021, the Colts were on par because we ran the ball well and possessed it well. Not so much in 2022, and 2023 was a bit of defensive regression for decent possession of the ball from Bradley’s unit.   Brandon Staley is another name but I’d prefer Jon Barry for his units to generate pressure. Otherwise we’d have to look at college like Packers getting the Boston College HC.   I’m a fan of Jim Leonhard that was a heck of a defensive coach / DC at Wisconsin, and is now a DB coach with Broncos. Dave Merritt, the Chiefs DB coach has done an outstanding job there and was interviewed for DC by 49ers.   My pick would be Jim Leonhard or Dave Merritt.    
    • You can’t keep winning only scoring one TD A game. I think they have gotten some what lucky with who they have played. Colds dline beat up so we will see.
    • What I meant is they are not going to come out and just throw 50 times. They are going to try and break your will and run out the clock. It’s  probably going to be a low scoring game. They have only scored 3 offensive TD. I am shocked they str 3-0. They don’t have many offensive weapons. Harris is not really a pass catching back who will break a long run. Now could that change. Off course. But their Oline id beat up. I was reading an article how they tried to open things up and Fields immediately got sacked. He they try to open things up till he revert back to Bears fields. 
    • I don’t know enough of the position coaches on other teams to say who is worthy of promotion. Best to keep an eye out on head coaches on the hot seat and their staffs.
