I hope I'm wrong, but Bobbie Johnson feels like a bit of a scapegoat.
Now - I'm not saying he's a good OL Coach. All evidence points to the contrary. His guys had no idea what they were doing.
But just like any business, sh#t rolls uphill. Just like it probably does at most of our jobs. The OL struggled from the opening bell last year. Where was the Offensive Coordinator Mike Kafka when it became clear Johnson was getting poor results? If he couldn't fix it, where was the Head Coach Brian Daboll? This was a problem that derailed the entire season and got their million dollar QB hurt. None of them could fix it.
Now Bobbie J's gone, and we're just hoping Bricillo waves a magic wand and they start playing better. I'm skeptical.
