You realize that there are 31 other teams that also pay their players, right?

Your coaches, the management, decides whether the practices are good enough.  They also decide who is going to get plays and who the plays should be focused on.  They also decide what scheme we will run and how to run an offense based on down/distance/time of game.

Last year our players got paid just the same as this year.  And yet last year our team was exceptional, even when we were losing.  

Last year's team would smoke this years team.  And last year's team has the same players, for the most part.

So, what's changed?  The players are almost identical.  And yet we look like trash.  Maybe the coaches have changed responsibilities and those changes have resulted in poor management and poor overall decision making?  Is that so profound?  That coaching/managing is a huge factor in holding players accountable?

LOL.  You guys kill me.  It's obvious this team sucks.  This is the same team as last year.  And yet we suck all of a sudden.  What's changed??

Doug gave up control of the offense.  That has changed.  And it's obvious this team no longer has the passion they did last year.  Same players playing the same positions.  The thing that changed is that the coaches are no longer coaching their same jobs.  There was a change at the top.  And here we are.

It's not that hard to figure out.

Did the team also have this many dropped balls/fumbles then last year ?

There execution on the basics has been dog [BLEEP] and u have to acknowledge that
