in favor of changing both the offensive coordinator and the offensive line
coach.  Excuses can be made for them, but if they were getting the job done,
excuses wouldn't be necessary.  I realize the coaches can't go out and play
the game, but poor coaching can be recognized and I see it in both these
areas.  I just wish it could be done without having the harsh stigma of have
to fire people.  Getting fired sucks.  Firing someone that you like and
respect also sucks.  But there you go.   Our receivers don't seem to be able
to get open (other than Paul; he could get open but he just didn't have good
hands) but I don't know whether that has to do with athletic ability or not
being coached well in running routes.
