Ballard is much more to blame for the downfall of this team than Reich. Reich was the one holding it together, as evidenced by the 1-4 record since he was fired.
Getting rid of Reich was a mistake.

The problem is Reich had pretty much lost the team and was a lame duck.
Also just speculating, but Irsay probably wanted some real answers as to why the highest paid OL in the league that he was paying for was performing as the worst in the league. When Reich and Ballard couldn't supply him with any real answer other than trying to blow the same smoke up his ass they had been giving the public (OL really isn't that bad and getting better BS), he eventually grew tired of it and decided to bring in someone from the outside who could give him a real answer.
