I do think they’ll be much better, hopefully double digit wins and maybe a WC. A deep playoff run and a SB win just seems unfathomable to me though.
Even a single playoff win would go a long way as far as getting the monkey of the backs of Marvin and Dalton.
You see, for me, even if they do get that elusive playoff win... It won't be like them "getting the monkey off their backs". It will be more like they got lucky and it won't ever happen again.
Sorry, I'm not trying to be negative. It's just the reality of the situation IMO. I have absolutely no faith in Marv to get us anywhere past the wild card round. It's been 15 years, and there's very little evidence he's capable of going on a championship run (and there's plenty of evidence to the contrary). Hiring Marvin back last January was unforgivable and unforgettable. Yes, the hiring of Van Pelt and Pollack were nice and all, as was the signings of Cordy Glenn and letting Bodine walk to the Bills. But we can't forget that Marv is still the captain of this ship. Things may be better, but I doubt they will change.
