We have had mostly bad QB play for the 20 games he has been here. it makes everything so much more difficult.



We tried for Stafford and hoped Fitz would buy us 1 year of serviceable play. While Heinike can scramble, I think he is handicapping the offensive playbook and not seeing the field, not getting the ball out on time as intended. 1/4 of the plays it doesnt matter what Turner called bc Heinike doesnt execute it and reverts to his legs or broken play backyard football.



Lets give RR, Del Rio and Turner the season to see if they can adjust things and improve.

I do think RR is a good coach, and I want to believe he's a good leader... But he hasn't proven that so far.
It's now 3 weeks in a row that he's saying guys are not doing what they're asked to do, not playing their responsibilities. And it's getting worse.
A good leader either gets these guys in line or finds a way to have them buy into what they're doing. Clearly neither our DEs nor the secondary are.
That doesn't speak to Ron's leadership abilities IMO.

I hope he, and they, shut all us negative Nancys up really quick but...

To me good coach and good leader are the same thing. Just a different style. You can be a BB or a Gruden on the sidelines in other words a cheer leader or a statue - but either way you need to do your job during the week. I expect a coach to say “its on me to get these guys prepared “ not basically blame them or act like the coaches are putting them in a position to win and they are failing.
