So I have to ask the question: why does our running game still suck? And why is our defense still inconsistent?
It naturally leads to questions about our coaching. Manusky's been better than Barry. And we've been hurt a lot. But is 'better than Barry' the right bar? I'm left with the question as to whether Manusky is good enough, or is he just average?
And we've got Bill Callahan as our offensive line coach. He's great, no question about that. But why does our running game still suck?
I don't have too many questions about Cousins. I definitely have questions about Jay Gruden.
