If winning, going 10-7, sneaking into the playoffs, and praying that the other guys team bus breaks down on the way to the stadium is what you want, Chris Ballard could’ve signed someone like Sam Darnold or Kirk Cousins and given you that. Heck, if the O Line was healthy, we’d be 7-7 and poised to close out the season with three more wins.
I know that a lot of people are unhappy, but Shane Steichen has been on the job for less than two freaking years. No one in their right mind fires a coach based on how they perform over that short a span.. With any luck, Jim Irsay will look back and remember the two decade long shit show that ensued when his father began firing head coaches, and general managers willy-nilly.
Ted Marchibroda can tell you exactly what that’s like. He lived it.. Bob Irsay fired him after he lost a preseason game.

Nope, you've got the wrong guy on this one Kray. Unlike some, I am still in AR's camp. I see things that give me hope and I am willing to ride with it for another season.
Hell, I can even sign up for another season of Steichen. Though here, anyone watching that game unravel after the JT poop play, has to question if Steichen is up for this. Frankly he looked completely sped up, seemed lost in the moment, unable to settle things down and just focus on capsules of time and effect. He literally looked like a fucking freshman QB thrown into the big game and shitting down his leg. Where was the designed runs for AR? The ONE THING he does consistently well- is gets on the edge and gaps for yards. Nope, all we saw seemingly mid 3Q through the end of the game, drop back and 12+ yard throws. It looked fast, it looked panicked, and it looked like a guy that was collapsing under pressure- and yes I am talking about the coach not the QB! So, nope, I'll go one more ring around the sun with the coach despite feeling very confident he isn't going to suddenly become Belicheck or Knoll.
What I am NOT willing to ride with for another season is a dead beat, lazy ass, coward ass, blow hard, do nothing, fucking flat bill stooge that hasn't done a motherfucking thing in his 8 years! I won't ride along with a fucking braggart that has NOTHING to be proud of sitting at a press conference and scoffing at the media that is simply pointing out his incompetence. This guy is a dud, a turd, a full on fucking failure. He needs to FUCKING GO! You are who your record says you are, and Ballard's record is fucking trash! Get him the fuck out of this organization right fucking now. Same team, same fucking injuries, same fucking fill ins- move Ballard, and we are 2 wins better over 17- he is THAT BAD! This team is a reflection of him!
Think about this, think about the Saturday debacle, the worst come from behind loss in NFL history, the QB tapping out due to being tired, the JT Playoff Plunder. Dude, all of these things- they are HIS! This is HIS TEAM, all this SHIT is happening under his watch. We need someone to come in and clean all this SHIT up!
