Absolutely. Though I won't pin it all on him, much of the problem has been the quality of his playcalling (or lack of). IMO, it has been on both sides of the line that has been the Bengals downfall (going back to the pitiful play that got Palmer hurt in the first place).

My top five wish-list:
1. Sign TJ to a 5 year deal
2. Draft and sign freeagent linemen
3. Sign Benson (I love Benson, but give me a good line and you can create good running backs)
4. replace Bratkowski
5. Hire and GM and add scouts

The first four sound good, but you and I both know that the last one will NEVER happen.
