Quote:You don't seem to remember how we lost something like 14 games in a row by double digits, rarely even being competitive, no matter whom we were playing against.   That was an all time NFL record for futility.  

 

Or perhaps you have forgotten how people were saying we need to fire Bradley and Caldwell.   Or how we need to cut Branch.   Or how people were saying our draft picks were all busts. 

 

This is the difference  between 1-15 and 5-11.   1-15 puts the coaching staff and the GM on the hot seat.   So we would get Teddy B, but our coach and GM would have one foot out the door, and our draft picks would  be widely regarded as failures.
