But more often than not it is execution that is the problem. I blame McVay too for forgetting about the run, but this recent stretch of fans laying everything on him is a joke. We would be a 2 win team at best if we didn't have him and that includes his playcalling.
All that aside I'm fine with him giving it up. Just think this entire thing is being so badly overplayed it's become comedy.
"Recent stretch of fans".... interesting.
Sorry, what happened during the Bengals game had absolutely nothing to do with execution, or Stafford checking himself into endless sacks. It had more to do with ignoring a replacement LT and calling the same plays over and over. Stafford was lucky to get out of that game in one piece.
No, McVay doesn't deserve all of the blame for all of this teams struggles. Last week was a loss by the players. But I can't let him off the hook and hold him blameless like others seem to want, either.
