I agree can't blame it all on Barry, but also you CAN blame a lot on him... and more on Barry than any excuses.


And don't blame Reed, that was a coaching error. The defensive front did better once it lost Gary and Lowry, because the play caller started listening to the players and made it simpler so they could play faster, and got to see more attacking, which I wonder if that might of changed the DL they normally look for. And they also did better once Clark went back to NT (his more natural position) and Reed and Wyatt went to attacking DT role that Clark was at.


I'm concerned why the Safeties suddenly got a heck of a lot worse after we gave a guy a promotion to Safeties coach (not I don't think his job actually changed, just his title improved, as I believe he was already coaching the Safeties).


Also, I wonder what was the disagreement between Barry and coach Jerry Gray, which led to Gray wanting out...

Also the DBs seemed to be feeding negative news to the media about Barry... though also the DL or defensive fronts asking for changes and not getting it until half way through the season and then getting improvements when he did finally listen.


And my biggest issues, is he was incrediblely too slow on making adjustments.
