Mike and Katie both know the Mike Brown way doesn't breed "football success."  Does she care?  I guess we will see eventually.  I will say that I'd imagine since Katie and her husband and her family are the ones benefiting from the Mike Brown way, so she may be somewhat attached to that style of management.  Or she might be like Al Davis' son and immediately hire a GM and get out of the way.

The legacy and curse is real folks.

This whole franchise is not about excellence in football terms.

Just egos, stubbornness, and a silly loyalty to staff members with a track record of failure.

I have little faith that they'll ever hire a GM or get a NFL caliber scouting department.

Even after Mike Brown's departure.

Man I just wish that old coot would get "Scrooged" and shown that his fans need to get a damn Xmas turkey for putting up with his crap for so long.
