Quote:We'll suffer loss after loss from the horrendous personnel & mismanagement of Gene Smith.

This year Caldwell& Gus gets a pass. Rome wasn't built overnight. We had the worst GM in the history of the NFL in Gene.


Let Caldwell build HIS team with HIS QB. The talent isn't here now. We'll have the opportunity to draft a Franchise QB in 14 (Bridgewater), hopefully


We will be a very good team I believe with Gus & Caldwell.

 

I disagree that they get a pass.  I think this year is where they earn their stripes in their current roles.  Landing the right QB can make marginal coaches and personnel guys look like geniuses.  Putting a foundation in place where that new QB will be plugged in is critical to the long term success of this team.  That process is underway currently, so you have to include this year as part of the judging process for these guys.  It may not matter what the W-L totals are for 2013, but you want to know your team is headed in the right direction when the season ends.
