If Zac loses out, which it certainly appears he will, and they bring him back...they will be the only non-expansion franchise during the SB era to bring back a coach this bad, except for Cleveland with Hue Jackson. Is that honestly were we want to be?

Doesn't matter what happens at field level. Things will stay the same until the current front office is replaced with something resembling competence and accountablity.

I can't imagine how even Mike Brown will be able to stand there at the end of season presser and justify bringing Zac back ? You can't just put a little sugar on this turd and cover the stink.

If they bring Zac back, it's basically a flashing neon sign letting the fan base know that winning isn't something they truly care about...at least not in any meaningful way, other than lip service.

Right, 5 coaches thousands of players - same results.

Agreed. I do have some bias I’ll admit. Gosh, we all do given that we follow dumpster fire after dumpster fire am I right? Lol.

I guess I just WANT for it to work out for him and us. Given that we aren’t even recognizable from a personnel perspective from game 1 to now. I just find it hard to say he’s the problem. It’s tough. But you won’t find me upset if he is shown the door, I’d be understanding of that too.
