Sure, you can. I just said Pryor is his biggest failure and I questioned Glow/Reed. But here's a few things:
1.) Fisher (and by proxy Ballard) was shit on pretty regularly last season. Not a no-brainer to bring him back.
2.) They had 5 starts and 5 more games of 25+% snaps worth of tape on Pryor, even though I know he wasn't exclusively LT. I don't remember him looking like this last season. How could he have?
3.) Fisher also hasn't been signed by any other team that could use "average" LT play. Must be a reason.
4.) There's a difference between criticizing moves that don't work (like you're doing) and calling for Ballard's head while ignoring all the good things that he provided (e.g., virtually the entire defense, Pitt, Pierce, JT, Granson, Woods, etc.).
