Would you like me to point you in the direction of the several post I've authored that said I agree that it's time for a change?

I don't care if they fire Sutton - there's cause for it.

Literally the only thing I've argued is the justification for it and with the underlying premise that he's some kind of drooling reerun. He's not, but he's simply too...I dunno...austere? There's no 'there' there. And he's lost his charges on account of it. He simply isn't getting through to them. I belive it was Htismaq that said it or maybe he responded to it, but someone said the issue is no longer blame but rather responsibility. The ultimate success or failure of the defense rests with him and it's not being successful.

I will say that the defense looked completely different with Berry out there. Yes, it's a coaching failure that literally nobody on that field seems to know what they're doing when he isn't out there, but it still suggests that a healthy Berry could get us into the post-season as the 1 seed still. They win that game if he 'feels right' (seriously, what the **** was that all about? I could play but my gut said no? Jesus, Berry - you're really turning into a flake).

But even with EB, we will get eviscerated since we no longer have the one truly dynamic CB we had on this team. But still....

adjusted chip protection + no berry to show our secondary where to play.

EXACTLY. Look, football is NOT rocket science. You have to cover YOUR man, whether it is switching off or simple "man-coverage".

That last play on the 2-pt conversion tells me all I need to know. Coaching, Coaching, Coaching, and Coaching. PERIOD, end of story.

No discipline - no accountability.

The Parker thing is the most incredible mind-**** I have ever seen. I simply cannot understand how they watch tape of this team and allow Ron Parker to take the field week after week.

It's not even a simple ability thing. He's indifferent. He watches more piles move than anyone you'll ever see. He's supposed to get up in the box and just kinda stands there and let a blocker come to him 6-7 yards past the LOS. Everything he does is with an eye on simply surviving another play.

I just....I don't get it. I always try to sit here and come up with why someone is doing something and generally I can find a justification even if I don't agree with it. But I can find NOTHING in support of having Ron Parker on the field anymore. Just absolutely nothing.

It's to the point that the only semi-rational explanation I have is straight up extortion. Ron Parker has Bob Sutton's family tied up in a basement somewhere and he'll give them back after Bob starts him for 17 games or something. That's literally the most sensible explanation I can come up with.
