I think Roman was fired because he couldn’t get a passing game going. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good running game and think you need one to be successful in the league today, but it just seems Roman is limited thru the air. Roman seems very much like he needs a system with the right parts to get going, i don’t think the Skins have a couple years to build it. Ron needs it now

Good points, but given our potential limitations at QB, having someone that can get the most out of running game to overcome any passing limitations would be huge.

I also know this is a chicken and the egg situation, as in was Baltimore's passing game lacking because of their misfires at drafting WRs or was their running game so prioritized that they couldn't develop pass catchers. But, our pass catchers are significantly better than any pass catchers Baltimore has ever had while Roman was there. So he'd have a better group to work with.

You'll still have limitations with a 2nd year QB with just one start under his belt. Helpful to keep pressure off Howell with a strong running game. That's how Seattle helped Russ be successful and be able to develop in his first few years.
