Re: Just enough improvement to frustrate us

Ultimately, I don't trust the coaching staff. I don't trust them to get this team ready to play with competitive discipline, week after week. And that's why we'll be frustrated again this year.

Oh, we'll look great at times. We'll beat some good teams and have some really impressive dominance in some games against mediocre teams.

But we'll also lose games we would be expected to win. And we won't win big games. And, again, we'll go 7-9 or so.

That's what I expect. I would LOVE to be wrong. I think the talent is there for a play off run.

But talent is not decisive in this league. Football is the ultimate team game requiring a team to play with coordinated, disciplined intensity. And I simply do not trust this coaching staff to lead this team to that level of execution.

In the NBA, they talk about the hell of being pretty good, but not good enough to win playoff series. I think we are stuck in that hell of mediocrity, and will be until we have a better coach. And if Fisher proves me wrong, I will delightedly confess my error and give him the credit I fear he will never earn.
