So by your logic Drew Brees sucked when he had all those losing seasons with the Saints? How about Bill Bilichik and his losing seasons? He also got fired by the Browns, but hey keep on cherry picking to support your emotional nut rolls.
Kudos for you for giving credit where credit is due! It really frustrates me that some of our supposed key contributes here on this forum are so quick to label Big Mike a bust. Whether they like it or not, he has some major skins on the wall and has accomplished more than most. I do agree with you though, there really does seem to be a clear cut plan to improve this team and I believe that things are coming together and we will soon be contenders. It's going to be funny to listen to the detractors come up for excuses why they're doing so well with such a horrible head coach and QB...I was going to start a thread like this. Its completely obvious that we have a REAL HC in charge of the football operations. The last two drafts have been really good, there is a definitely plan and focus to what they do. And training camp and the offseason this year is looking a lot different then when Garrett was around. Guys overall seem to be in incredible shape and taking their careers seriously.
A REAL football guy is in charge, not some fake fanny patting smiley clapping idiot.
So, you're not willing to take into account that last year was historic in terms of taking away a coaches ability to be prepared? Sure Big Mike made some bad decisions but all coaches do that! I also watched most of the games again and I saw a much more prepared team overall in terms of our rotations and depth. I see things totally different, I thought Big Mike did a very good job considering the circumstances. New coaches take their lumps, but he looks like a man with a plan to me..
I was feeling good until we went 6 and 10.
