We are a young team, but with better coaching we could be a Super Bowl team. Why do I say this?
2016 - 13-3 (best record in the league, 1st seed in the NFC)
2017 - 9-7 (Zeke missed six games so we could have made the playoffs if he weren't suspended.)
2018 - 10-6 (division winner)
We've had a winning record each year yet stalled each year.
Meanwhile, the Falcons, the Jaguars, the Eagles, the Rams (all teams with you head coaches with tenures shorter than Garrett's) have been to the Super Bowl or the Championship game (or are going there).
Even with Dak's limitations, we should at the very least have been in a conference Championship game.
There is absolutely no coaching creativity, no taking advantage of our opponent's weaknesses on a consistent bases, no progress.
The Eagles had a second year coach who got his team to a Super Bowl for Pete's sake. Garrett hasn't sniff even a Conference Championship game.
What I wonder if Linehan doesn't have confidence in Dak or he's just that inept.
Whatever it is, coaching makes a difference and there won't be any difference between or longstanding playoff futilites and our future success if we don't get different coaches.
But I doubt it will happen. Jerry sees our 10-6 record and one playoff win as enough for Garrett to keep his job.
