yes, it is time for Joe to go. The team is in its 3rd losing season in 4 years. WE have not progressed at all since he came here. we are the same organization we were before he got here. Over pay FA, fail to pay OUR draft picks, trade away picks like they are poison. He has not even progressed, forget the team. he still makes the same mistakes. Clock management, conservative game planning. He always says he doesnt live on past success, well that is exactly why he is still here. Danny will not fire him, so Joe will have to step down. Frankly, I dont want him moving into a VP position either. He is not a talent evaluator. He is a coach. Look at how he has built this team. He has small speed receivers (remember the smurfs?) a speed running back, athletic TE. This team is actually built for a spread it out offense throw it more than run it type game plan. Not the ball control stuff Joe likes to play. I realize the last few weeks we have started throwing the ball more, but I am looking at an overall thing here. Plus, losing 6 games this year when having a 4th quarter lead!! that is on the coach. Players have to play, but when you are sitting on the ball and giving other teams opportunities to win at the end, you will probably come up short majority of the time. Nothing has changed, we are the 3rd or 2nd worst franchise in the NFL since 1999. that is ridiculous.
