Ahhhh, if only our organization had the patience that other clubs have. Instead, we have a constantly revolving door with coaches and players coming and going in the hopes of getting better talent because we always feel that what we have is inadequate. Paging doctor Freud.

Now, as surprising as this is, I actually agree with pretty much everything you said. I agree he didn't get a chance there, however, I don't think he should have taken the job in the first place. I think the team is horrendous and they need a different coach than him.

I actually don't mind him, but I don't think that that team is in better shape than he found them. He jerked QB's in and out, which bothers me more than anything else a coach does. I think that this team needs someone who is going to be hard on them. I don't think a nice guy like Mooch was the guy for this team. They need a Marty type to bust their ass.

I think he will be successful somewhere, but that place is a debacle, he didn't help them at all, and it really didn't seem like he cared.
