BTW why didn't you list the Browns and Buccaneers in your original post?

Except there is no mean in football. Otherwise the Patriots wouldn't have 13 straight double digit win seasons and the Browns having 8 straight losing seasons. Good teams will be good, bad teams will be bad. If you don't change the situation, nothing will change. No magical "reverting to the mean".


I didn't list the Browns and Buccaneers, because I honestly forgot about them. I wasn't working off a list or anything, just my memory of who hired a coach recently. Thanks for reminding me, I will edit my post accordingly.
