You have to imagine that when ZT took over, he likely looked over that current group and told MB it's gonna be a rough couple years. Otherwise, he'd be gone by now. I think he's been more impressive from a character standpoint in that he's not given excuses like I probably would've, but he's taken plenty of likely unnecessary lumps, all the while Marvin giggling from afar.
I don't even see 1% of the same quit-bs attitude we saw the last two years from certain players. That's something I can at least hang my hat on as tangible evidence we've got something good going on.
I dunno. I know that you also want to believe we've got all the right stuff, but perhaps you need more time. Totally your right and respectable, i have zero issues with that.
Those are all fair points, but I feel like a lot of us have collectively forgotten how awful the Steelers were the last weeks of the previous season.
Clearly Zac has the respect of the locker room and apparently the faith of ownership. But the specter of nearly 30 losses in 3.5 years looms large, and 4 losses to the Ravens in spectacular fashion looms larger still, to me at least.
I'm hoping for the win - don't take my sour attitude as anything against the team - I just think in a battle of coaches, Harbaugh has a HUGE advantage of Taylor.
