The problem with that, and what makes football so awesome, is every year is a completely clean slate. Last year people were praising Houston, Niners, Packers and this season it's Lions, Commanders and Rams. Every fan wants success and want a coaching staff to walk in and just make it happen.

Doug looked like the right choice and was making progress towards success and then hit a wall. Every HC is going to have up and down seasons. The path to success is teams like the Bills, Chiefs, Ravens. Build a FO and coaching staff that work together and have a style and system they want to implement and then add players that work and excel in that system. Those teams have had years of stability and progress towards that goal.

That for me is the biggest thing with the new coaching staff. We need to find someone that the whole building from top to bottom can align with and give 5 years to build the roster and franchise, regardless of how good/bad those 5 seasons are.

5 years regardless of how bad we are?  Hell no, I disagree with this.

I don't think we need a full rebuild so I don't expect 2 to 3 seasons of 3 wins but if we go 6-11 next season but can see progress towards something I can accept it. 

I just don't want fans expecting a quick turnaround and being here again next offseason or the one after calling for firings. We desperately need some stability.
