The last 4 head coaches of a team that drafted a QB #1 overall was fired in the QBs rookie season, that's pretty insane

I’d guess .  It’s easier than ever to play qb and the qb/offense better hit a baseline level of competence otherwise you’re gone.

 

And that takes the rookie qb struggle into play too.

 

I’d guess all four of those qbs lead bottom 5 level offenses in the NFL that year.

Ward struggling and Callahan being fired was highly predictable outcome.

The thing is if you are drafting a QB #1 you have a horrible team to start with

 

2nd you are going to start a rookie QB on a horrible team from the start and it's going to make it even worse.

I think it makes sense. Your team/you are probably real bad if you coach a team to the #1 pick. Rookie QBs rarely light it up and it (almost) always gets blamed on the coach.

Obviously that's what she pays them for, but if she's going to be so involved with these decisions I would like to hear from her. 

 

Also obvious, that she's the owner and doesn't have to give a shit what I think lol.

She’s involved because you need to tell the owner what you’re doing. There’s no evidence she made the call or had any part in it besides blessing the decision. And if she did more than that, then she made the right decision lmao

It was still a highly predictable outcome this team was simply not ready to start a rookie QB not from a personnel standpoint and not from a coaching standpoint.

Sure, but I guess the point is that's likely true of every team that takes a QB #1 overall

I think they expected a struggle but not this bad (product on field).  And there were a lot of self inflicted stuff from Callahan that had nothing to do with talent level (clock management, catch stuff etc)

The most obvious thing other than the game management woes is Callahan's refusal to adapt his offensive scheme to Ward. 

 

They likely did not anticipate his stubbornness on scheme.
