I still hold on to the notion that this team has a lot of talent at the skill positions. On offense we have Bowe and Charles. On defense we have DJ, Hali, Berry, Flowers, and potentially Houston.
Even assuming every other guy on this team is just a blue collar type player, the core makes this team a lot closer to good than it's current record suggests. Yes, the need for QB is glaring. But beyond that there is an overwhelming need for a coach/staff that knows how to maximize this talent.
The current coaching staff is outright incompetent. And it's not just poor game management, or bad playcalling. I honestly believe these coaches are fumble-****ing their way through every aspect of their jobs. Brian Daboll has never put out a good offense. Romeo Crennel put together 2 good years of defense in his entire career as D coordinator, and is clearly criminally in over his head as a HC.
We all came into this season expecting to blame all our losses on Cassel. And these coaches have manged to ruin the entire god damn franchise to a degree that blaming Cassel doesn't even make sense anymore.
