Default My Take for real

Our defense is getting better each week. I know we will not be the legion of boom, but this has turned into a quality defensive unit. So far the rare good thin with this team.

Our O-Line is just horribly atrocious and gets worse by the week. Even Q sucks, watch this clip: https://twitter.com/i/status/1589375358784405506
I don't even know where to start on why. I do know in no universe was Pryor the answer, EVER. Three different positions this year, exploited by the opposing team and benched for every position. Just cut him please. Getting rid of Glow and Reed were horrible mistakes. Ballard showing us how smart he was had the opposite effect. I'm not sure any part of this line is salvageable at all. Just horrendous.

I was going to lay into our receivers, but I can't. Sam never had enough time to go through his progressions and they never had enough time to get separation before a defensive player was in the backfield and in pursuit of Sam.

Which brings me to Sam. Is he the answer? Still do not know. How do you grade him when he is in constant peril. He can only scramble so much to extend plays, but when 3-4 guys are crashing down on you nearly every single play, it wears you down. So jury is still out, but if draft was next weekend I would be trying to move up and get Levis.

Special teams has played fair this year. No complaints as a whole, but as with anything always room for improvement.

Jackson, Lindsey, or even Taylor are getting more than 2-3 yards per rush behind this line, and that is being overzealous on the 2-3 yards. I'm not sure Barry Sanders gets more than 3 behind this line. Set Taylor for the year and call it a day. He is just going to get knocked around like some of ya's ex-wives.

Play calling. Yea, firing Brady sure made that obvious how much he was holding this team back. Reich's insistence of running two straight plays up the middle with this line is maddening. You then have 3rd & 7 or 8 and he calls a 5 yard hitch, sweep or a rub across the middle for 2 yards. Again, maddening. Using Gransen as a fullback on the 3rd. & 1 was retarded, he needed a complete lobotomy for the 4th. down pitch 6 yards deep with these running backs and o-line.

Ballard has constructed a shitty all around team and done nothing to address glaring holes. His idea of putting Pryor at LT as a sound choice should have his job in jeopardy. Pryor done nothing last year that says he is a solid LT. Nothing!

Burn it down. Keep anyone under 25-26 with talent and trade/cut everyone else in the off season and lets start over. This truly is not working, nor is it going to work. Just despicable what we are forced to endure as fans.
