Reich handing over playcalling to Brown

This was Reich’s plan all along, correct?

 

Should led to positive results. Game management should improve and play calling. If neither does, I’m good with a complete coaching fire sale. If it does improve, I’ll give them another year. 
 

I still say our biggest issue is lack of talent.

SMH...

it took this long to make that decision...

Fire Reich if Brown succeeds, Frank shouldn't get the credit at all-more like the credit for us being bad, he assemble a good group of guys but he himself is not amongst them.

I don't think Frank hired all the staff to begin with.

All?  No, just the most important roles.  Some lower level staffers were allowed to be picked by the guys the would be reporting to.  STs and OL coaches were holdovers at he request of the front office.

I thought there was reporting that the owner/gm paired a lot of this up....and it wasn't just them hiring a HC that did what he pleased.

Remember what sold Tepper was the list of coaches Frank said he would bring in.  Frank didn't get all the guys he wanted and had some plan B's and C's, but yeah, he had his staff pretty much assembled on paper.

The only thing that's going to make a difference is getting the defense healthy, OGs healthy and hope we can run the ball while keeping opponents under 21 points.  Thomas Brown ain't putting 40+ points on anyone and that's where our defense is at right now.

No one thinks he is putting up 40 with this roster.  If he can go then ahead and promote him now.  We are looking for an offense that has a pulse.  How about at least 3 whole offensive TDs for starters.  Hopefully we see an up-tempo offense in rhythm that gives us some hope and possibly a win.  Also we only have one OG coming back this year our other starter won't be.

Also remember guys, Frank said from the jump that he would "initially" be calling the plays and would hand it over to Brown at "some point." There wasn't a specific date when the baton would be handed off, but obviously going into the bye week would make the most sense giving the offense 2 weeks to get used to the adjustments.
