And over the remainder of the season, a desperate Frank Reich abandons his so far disastrous zone blocking scheme and basically copies last years power run game. O-Line and RBs finally produce, Bryce finally gets less pressure and more traction in the air off play action, and we go 4-3 against the remaining soft schedule. Do you still fire Frank?
It speaks to a fundamental misanlalysis and if I’m running this team, I see it as all the evidence I need that Frank Reich has no eye for the game. Why would I ever trust him to build a staff? It’s all about finding the ideas that work and making them gel together.
Let’s say next year, Thomas Brown or Ejiro Evero get hired elsewhere. Frank is now in charge of finding a new coordinator, integrating their ideas into his “scheme” - what little scheme exists - and making sure his players can grasp it and execute it. How do we think that’s likely to go?
The scheme is built around Bryce. So if you abandon the current scheme, you’re now not building the scheme around the QB.
Power Oline teams don’t make it to the Super Bowl and there is a reason for that. The correct move is to stay in a zone blocking scheme whether Reich is here or not. It’s about getting the right players that fit into that.
He has refused to change anything over 10 games, so I don’t expect him to do anything different now. I expect the same fuckin mistakes and issues that have shown up the whole season to continue every week the rest of the way because Reich is trash and will be a beautiful example of why you don’t hire coaches right after they were fired mid season lol
Keep Frank, take our ass whooping for next season, Tell fitty pull his neck in and stop wasting picks and cap on shitty talent. Fuck em both out the door at the end of next season. Hire some shit hot GM and get us a top class young coach. Proceed to grind the NFC South into the ground. Stop letting teams set records on us and ultimately make the playoffs only for a bad call from the refs to totally fuck us.
Well… Ickey can run block so there’s that
