The head coach is responsible for the coordinators/coaches under him.  Doug failed in this aspect.  Had Doug fired both coordinators earlier in the season he might still have a job today.

The general manager is responsible for personnel including players, scouting staff, coaches (to some extent) as well as managing the salary cap.  Trent has done a mediocre job at best, but I wouldn't say is a complete failure.

I'm not saying that I agree with Shad's decision(s), I just understand where he is coming from.

Quite a few fans were complaining and saying that coaching was the issue throughout the season.  Well, a new HC along with his own staff including coordinators/assistant coaches is coming next season.  The salary cap is in decent shape and the team has some draft capital so hopefully the GM will make good decisions regarding the draft/free agency.

This team still has a lot of young players with plenty of talent.  A turnaround next season certainly isn't out of the question.

I hate that statement, the sentiment posing as logic it attempts to portray, and [BLEEP] the people who cling to it. All of what I stated I see as the main problem: a delusional sense of understanding.
