No, he went on to become a decent head coach, and Fassel later admitted he shouldn't have yanked him.
Good one.
But he did. And he left because of his reduced role.
Hey, maybe Stewart will leave and be a decent head coach somewhere else. In the meantime when he had control of the defense it sucked. When Wade became "more involved" (and we played some pretty crappy offenses) it got better.
You can downplay it until you run out of Homer Juice, but Stewart was doing a crappy job as DC until Wade personally stepped in. The idea of HAVING a DC is to free up time for the HC to deal with other issues, not have his hand held mid-season.
Issues like why the Special Teams are so utterly horrible and no one wants to do anything about them, that kind of thing.
