Changing coaches, be it head coach or otherwise, is not the answer.

What I saw last night vs Philly was a team that did not play to win, but instead, was so scared of failure that they tried to play "not to lose". Hope that makes sense.

Campbell is screwed so tight right now that he does not know whether to scratch his watch or wind his ass. It was apparent throughout the game. Several passes, he pulled back, then, tried a diffferent reciever. He was not following his first instinct.

What I saw was a terrible lack of execution and confidence. I don't care if you had the late, great Bill Walsh in the booth calling the plays. Plain and simple the offense did not execute, and no team can win if they cannot execute.

I think it has gotten so bad there, that, it is not that they cannot execute. It is that they are so afraid of failure, that they are actually scaring themselves away from properly executing an offensive series.
