We used to make adjustments back in 2022. I remember when we'd start off slow, but Doug dialed up new schemes and got the players amped for the 2nd half.

In 2023, I could tell there was something off. People were saying it's the O-Line. The O-Line has been weak since 2022. But in 2022, we seemed to figure out how to still be successful.

Press Taylor has taken over this offense, and Doug is too old/weak/tired/comfortable with just riding the status quo. He's got his money. He'll eat this year, and then ride off to retirement. All while protecting his beloved coaches.

The O-Line is bad. The O-Line has been bad since 2022. It's not a new thing. What has deteriorated is Doug's passion on how the offense works.

What's worse is that the fact that Doug has decided to just phone it in, we are seeing our Franchise QB regress. We're watching the house burn down. The house being our players. We're watching this house burn down and we are calling on the coaches to fix the situation. The coaches are supposed to figure out how to put out the fire.

But instead of blaming the firefighters for their inability to even get the fire hydrant turned on, we're blaming the house for burning down.
