Yeah for all the “there will be fist fights on the sidelines between him and Jimbo” handwringing on the rant, we didn’t get much drama.

I don’t really know how to chalk his tenure up here. We did improve slightly on offense compared to last year, not that it’s a hard feat to accomplish. But it seems he was just calling plays out of Jimbo’s playbook instead of installing his own offense.

It will be interesting to see how Arky looks offensively next year where he will get the true reins to the offense. Of course they don’t really have great players so he may not be able to do much, but if he’s as good of a coach as people think he is, he will adapt to the talent and players they have and figure something out. Unlike jimbo’s method of shoving a round peg in a square hole until it works (or fails spectacularly).

I think Bobby did a solid job. He was better than Jimbo and better than I expected (low expectations), but nothing special per se. I think the problem on the OL prevented reaching that next level. Bobby wasn't able to scheme around it enough. I also think he failed to make adjustments to adjustments. We had entirely too many second halves where we couldn't hold the lead. Durkin gets the same criticism.

I find the reaction from Pig very strange. He's not going to be their savior.
