In Scot we trust?

I, for one, trust Scot McCloughan completely. He's got my support. He can be here for the next 10 years at least as far as I'm concerned. I think he's doing great things for this team, and I think over the next several seasons, the rest of you guys will start to see it too. This team needs to be done with the proverbial revolving door at key positions. Not only do the leashes need to be lengthened, but they just need to be taken off completely. Allow these guys (the GM, the coaching staff, the players) to grow and build this team. While I'm not too crazy for Barry and won't cry if he is let go, I believe, overall, we stick with the same group of guys that has improved this team greatly over the 3-13 mess Shanahan left for us. Now his tenure was an example of a team not growing. At least with SM and Gruden, we've seen this team go from 4-12 to having two winning seasons. The way I see it is, you have first got to establish that this team can be consistently at or above .500 on a regular basis. Then you take this team to the next step at making them a playoff team on a consistent basis, and eventually a championship caliber team. The team has first got to learn how to win. Last year it was that the team couldn't beat any winning teams. This year, people said this team can't win on the road. So, that's the next thing to work on - being road dogs!

Guys and gals, we're getting there, just gotta believe and keep grinding.
