This notion that Frank was the problem all along when the team has absolutely fallen apart since he left is ridiculous.

See this is where it gets confusing to me. Ballard signs the guys. But he does not set the depth chart. That's a coach's job. Totally Ballard's fault for not getting a better LT in-house. Although it looks like Raimann and even Fries may work out.
But did they not see how bad he was in camp? Pryor had the job from day 1, no competition. Kelly was hurt to start the season so he couldn't play there. If he was such a liability why wasn't he benched sooner? I mean it took Saturday to come in and bench him.
I blame Ballard for signing him, but I blame Frank for continuing to play him.
