However, if the OL continues its mediocre play the rest of the season, I doubt Strausser's contract will be renewed in the off season.

That’s crazy to me. By every available metric, the Colts are one of the worst lines in football, in both run and pass blocking.

The offensive line is why Matt Ryan was benched, it’s why Taylor has been ineffective all season, and it’s why Brady got fired.

The play of the line is at the root of every other problem. Blowing smoke up everyones ass doesn’t change that, because it’s so painfully obvious.

I feel like personal politics played more of a role in these moves than anything else. If a shakeup was needed, it should have been made at the source of the problem.

Firing Brady just feels like a desperation move, a move aimed more at getting people off of their asses than actually addressing the problems.
