Quote:How can you possibly claim that? Until this team starts competing for a playoff berth, or at least winning ONE game, there is zero evidence that this rebuild is any better than Gene Smith's version.

We just don't know yet, but the results so far have been disappointing.

 

I agree with you that there's no direct evidence that it's working, as you say it's too early to tell.  The games are disappointing for sure, but part of the evaluation should be in the assumed potential of so many young players.  There certainly seems to be untapped potential there, mostly on offense.  Gotta remember those guys are so young.  And the failures of the past don't necessarily reflect the course of the future although I say this acknowledging we don't know for sure yet if there is going to be a pay off.
