Frank Reich Still the Problem?

With his 4.37 speed, why don't they have any pitchout run plays that have Taylor going wide? It's always up the gut and I believe the Eagles over played the middle run play.

Finally, I believe they did the wideout behind the LOS 3 or 4 times and it was never successful. I was telling my friend Andy, why not call that, and have Ryan pump fake it, then go deep to a WR running a cross pattern?

Agree on the outside runs. They used the Eagles' aggression on the screens for a deeper throw once that I recall. Pittman faked the pick, they all jumped pump fake to Campbell, and Pittman was open for a 15 yard throw. One of those throws that seemed to lack zip and he kind of got hung out and took an immediate big shot to the ribs. Luckily he's a big dude.

You clamor to get rid of Ballard the same way guys clamored to get rid of Reich.

I didn’t see Reich as the primary issue with the team. Pointing out what I see the issue is is on topic for this thread. I’m not spamming the game thread with fire Ballard every time Raimann or Fries fuck up or simply a play doesn’t work like the guys clamoring to fire Reich were. And for the record, I see value in Ballard but I do believe he follows a losing philosophy. If that is changeable by him or by direction from Irsay I’d be fine keeping him.
