Everyone wants Ballard's head, but IMO, this is either coaching or the players themselves. Yeah, I get it, LT sucks, but it doesn't suck to the point that everyone just completely forgot how to play football. Even Nelson looks quite bad, and just on one on one plays.
I actually don’t want either fired. You can’t switch the QB every year and expect success. Just doesn’t work that way. When a new QB comes in it takes half a year at least to learn a new system. I bc actually thought Ryan would do better next year than this one.

Ballard irritates me some especially when he doesn’t address a problem. But he is an astute talent evaluator and that’s the biggest part of the job. Eventually we will get a QB for longer than one year and I think the rest of the talent will form around that. Also I think Reich would be a good developer of a rookie QB. Everyone just got impatient with the retreads.

And yes I’m ok with the build style. Everyone thinks you have to build a team with QB and weapon to throw all the time but forgets we were sporting that build before everyone else. Got just one super bowl win, and that was only because the running game and defense peaked. Now we have the other elements but need the smart qB play to go with it.

You switch the coach, you are likely looking at a full rebuild. He will want his own DC, OC. Will want to run his own style and then the talent to fit that system.
