Default It is far past time for frank reich to be held accountable!

Say what you want, cloud it in multiple TO's, a missed short FG to win it, a dropped TD pass, terrible play by the RT, dumb penalty on Speed, refusal to take the points, and inexcusable futility with clock management.

While all of those things are certainly components, they roll back to a TEAM that is routinely unable to just do the routine things that put you in the W column vs the L.

That's the issue, how many games do we lament with statements like "Frank's this or that cost us this game"? How many, way more than should be. Yeah a coach blows a game here or there, it happens, tough damn job, gonna blunder here or there. Frank blunders over and over and over and we keep losing games to inferior opponents.

He just cannot prepare a team sufficiently. They are a reflection of him, and while not possible to put a single succinct statement together on what he is doing wrong, he just continues to prove time and time again he is not a good head football coach. Unprecedented to fire a coach after the first game of the season, but if not, this is just going to be another Frank Reich 8-9 win season where you look back and feel like we have good enough talent, we just can't get over the hump. He is not a get over the hump coach. He needs to go away right now.

I bet Ballard is saying a lot of those very things to Frank right now.

No, they should've re-signed Badgley.

Why can't the punter do kickoffs? He's really worse than Specs at it? Can there be anyone worse than a guy who kicks it off out of bounds on two crucial points in the game?

Haack has only kicked off four times in his NFL career.

That was one of the reasons that I thought Dicker the Kicker would be a good replacement for Sanchez since Dicker punted and kicked in college.

He could have stepped in to be the punter and kick-off specialist.

I hate to say it, but you're right. Reich is complete fucking garbage. We skull fucked the shit out of the Texans last year to the tune of 62-3. We supposedly upgraded at DE, CB, and QB while the Texans stayed in rebuild mode and didn't do anything at all. Then somehow through Frank's incompetence we found ourselves down 20-3 entering the 4th quarter.

Then miraculously they cough up the ball and we score 17 straight and go into OT.

Then Frank shows his complete ineptitude. Instead of realizing that all we needed was a FG to win he decides to run a bootleg inside the red zone instead of just taking a knee in the middle of the field to set up a chip shot FG. It's like his dumb fuck ass doesn't know the rules of the game

That is what is most frustrating. We had a chip shot. Next score wins. First down? So, what? Kick it and win. No, run two negative plays first.

Ray Guy used to do that when he played for the Raiders, when ageless George Blanda no longer had the leg for booting into the end-zone from the 40 yard-line.
