He may not be first in line on blame for those but unless he was screaming 'NO' then he was probably part of the problem. Just those 2 moves will is enough to fire a HC and/or GM. When they got Ryan I knew it was going to end poorly over there. And after Wentz like they learned nothing. 

I don't know that he had much say in personnel decisions.

(he certainly didn't have Matt Rhule's contract)

All GMs listen to their coaches to some extent though, and it's not hard to believe Reich may have thought he could fix Wentz's issues

I'd take him as a QB coach for sure, possibly even as an OC.

Interestingly in a tangental tree to Steichen who followed the same LAC to PHI path as Reich. 

Still want Steichen as HC more than anything and would trust with his staff build.  Especially how Herbert looks with him gone and Hurts looks with him in PHI.  He's got something going on.  He's got his pulse on the modern ballgame.

One could argue he masked them about as well as any head coach could have at this stage of his career.  Look at Wentz #s with the Colts last year and his #s with the Commanders this year.  Numbers don't tell the whole story of course but Wentz was producing way more across the board.  

I think Reich will definitely get an interview here.  Experienced, offensive-minded head coach.  Not sure if we would hire him but an interview for sure

That wasn't Reich's fault, though he may have believed he could fix Wentz.

I know he was downright awful in that season finale game against Jax but stats wise Reich did a decent job with Wentz

Wentz threw a career high 15 ints in 2020 in 12 games. Reich brought that number down to 7 in 17 games in 2021. Wentz has 6 ints already this year in just 6 games

An ex-QB HC drafting HIS rookie QB in year-1 could not be set up better.

What experience does he have developing a rookie? Indy seemed to prefer the vet approach during his tenure.

I think I'd still prefer someone from the Shanahan tree.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
