In the famous words of Mr. Parcells: “You are what your record says you are.”

Your final record shows who you are over the course of a season. Maybe it's different in the extreme examples of going 8-0 then 0-8, or thereabouts. Even there, you have shown the talent and ability to win half your games in a 16 game season. Each year is a new year, how many "worsts to first" (and vice versa) does it take to prove that?

We were a 9-7 team last year and are an 8-7-1 team this year - that's who we are right now, and it's an improvement over when we were a 4-12 team or when we finished fourth in the division 8 out of 11 years between 2004 and 2014.
