Not to mention we got the guy who was in charge of the NFL's best line over the last few years...all because Jerrah had to take his frustration out on someone other than
his boy Garrett.
I don't think anyone is saying Pollack = Lombardi, but how could anyone not get the excitement? We fired an awful coach and replaced him with a great candidate. The players we got are big physical types. They wouldn't be here if not for Pollack. So even if the improvement is solely due to talent (it won't be), you still have to credit Pollack.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
