But I get it - the team had great players that just weren’t properly coached. The outcome of the season had nothing to do with Ballard being Ballard with the OL. It’s pretty obvious it was strictly coaching considering how well they did under Jeff Saturday…..

I was just getting ready to post this. How in the hell are you gonna penalize Reich for losing two guys to head coaching positions? Fucking ridiculous.
And there’s no way of knowing how good Brady was. Literally NO ONE was going to be successful with that offensive line.
Brady was fired because Jim needed someone to blame for Ballards failure. When that didn’t work, he fired Reich and brought in Jeff Saturday. We all saw how that worked out. Historically bad team that also happened to be the laughingstock of the league.
Vince Lombardi himself would have won less than 5 games with a line that couldn’t run block OR pass block.
That shit is 100 percent on Ballard.
