Yeah, that make perfect sense.
Will they keep a coach with a losing record until his contract expires or he quits? Unequivocally, yes.
Shula went 5-11 and 3-13 during his first two seasons and Mike gave him a two year extension. Shula then went 3-13 and 7-9 and Mike still brought him back for his last season under contract.
Marvin is the only head coach Mike has ever hired to produce a winning record. The other four have combined for a winning record of less than .400.
To summarize, Shula, LeBeau, and Coslet all reached the final year of their contract. If they all reached the final year of their contracts, why would I believe otherwise with Taylor?
