The early season ends up being treated as tryouts while the team searches for combinations or enough rookie development to work. Reich hadn’t lost the team at 3-3-1, Irsay bowed down to fans screaming for Ehlinger and then when that didn’t work he finally gave in to the fans scapegoating Reich. Now they are even worse off.

Excellent points. All 3 things can be true: Reich lost the team, hiring Saturday mid season was really stupid, and Ballard does a shit job of filling team needs.
