Starting 0-1 is not that big of a deal.

Patriots, Saints, and Green Bay are all 0-1, but we pretty much know those teams will be in the hunt for the Super Bowl.

Going 0-2 is when you should be really concerned if you have playoff aspirations, seeing as how every 0-2 team since the Giants won the super bowl have missed the playoffs.

I have confidence this team will show improvement and be respectable, which is all you can ask for. 1st year coaches typically don't compete for super bowls, unless you inherit an insanely talented team. Carroll, Belichick, even Bill Walsh struggled at first. Let us just see what these guys can do and be patient.
