But to answer your question? yes. MS should be given his whole 5 yrs cause Cerrato had 10 yrs to make it what it is now so giving a HC 5 yrs to fix what our old GM took 10 yrs to ruin is not uncalled for. Besides, the longer your in ruin the longer it will take to fix the problem. The Giants were not in too bad a shape prior to Coughlin so when he came in he didn't have to do too much to right the ship. Shanahan has basically had to "rebuild" even though he has denied wishing to use the "rebuild" word.

Shanahan chose to rebuild when he blew up a solid defense and totally screwed himself at QB. He hasn't even climbed himself out of the whole he dug because the defense is no better than the one he inherited and the QB situation is worse than what he inherited.

If Mike was truly being evaluated for his performance over the last two years he's 1) the worst HC over the two year period to NOT be fired and 2) the HC most responsible for his team's failures.

Well when you make a complete overhaul of the offense and defense then yes your gunna suck for a couple of yrs until you get all the pieces to fix the puzzle. MS wanted a 3-4 defense. I have no problem with that, heck I like the 3-4. But Haslett needed to get all the pieces which he didn't have the first year which is why they sucked. This year the defense has looked a lot better and next year with Jarvis returning and maybe some more puzzle pieces the defense will rock.

Offensively I like the scheme, I like the starters, I like the back ups who have done admirably filling in, and basically think we need a QB, and WR and maybe 1 or 2 OL. I guess I'm just a positive person and seem to get let down each year but I'm always ... maybe next year.

On a side note I was looking at the magazine rack recently wishing the draft magazine's and the other NFL magazines were out. lol. Pretty bad that I get all hyped up more for the magazines at this point. lol.
