I'm just trying to look at it from a coaches perspective. Obviously the fans are ready for a change - fans are fickle. Things go south and we declare everyone should be fired and a new team put in place.

You've got to consider that, in general, football players/coaches learn from the Pop Warner days to fight and "never ever ever ever give up." It's a mentality that's ingrained from day one to win at any cost and never give up hope. Right now there is, mathematically speaking, still some hope left.

As hopeless and frustrating as this season feels to fans, technically there's still a chance, and regardless of how remote it is they'll keep fighting with the best they've got (i.e. Brunell) until it's officially over.

At this point it's really about the mindset they've learned over the years and about character, as cheesy as that sounds.
