You miss the point entirely. It's debatable whether Mike has built a more talented roster than the one he inherited, but the debate is irrelevant. He doesn't win regardless.

Bound to land a solid coach eventually. Hoped Shanny would work out. He isnt. He wont. If we win 6 or less i say thats that.
Quoted for bottom line truth.

Yes but they did have their first four non- losing seasons in those years. He took over a joke and made them respectable almost immediately. Shanny took over a joke and made them - well as of today - a joke - a younger joke with slightly less wins.

And if you watched the game today you would know better than to use "this team" and "superior" in the same sentence.

For those that say a coaching change would hurt us..

Look at TB, Indianapolis, Miami

Dallas hasn't won a playoff game in longer sessions then us..

You can't throw teams up for a positive and not expect the same negative reaction. You cannot compare one team to another. Coaches go from one team to another and be successful, and sometimes don't.

It's not a fair analogy to assume if we dump Shanny and pick up all these available winning coaches on the market that we will win a SB.

I'm not a Shanny lover, but he said 5 years and i'll give him his 5 years.

Maybe we don't need to go after a big name coach?
