A little bit of this...

I'll still follow and be a fan, but I have no belief we'll win a playoff game let alone a championship anymore until significant changes are made. I have no faith in this regime.
...and a little bit of that. That said, I was young and a little ignorant of "the Mike Brown effect" back in the 90's. These days I don't have as much endless optimism. Mike sapped all of that by taking decades - instead of years - to make necessary changes. Even if Mike finally fired Marvin and Paul A, it's possible he hires an even worse coach and sticks with him for 10+ years.
I wouldn't say I have a breaking point, but each disappointment chips away at me. Mainly the '13 loss to the Chargers, the '15 meltdown vs the Steelers, and that trainwreck of an o-line last year. It feels like a total repeat of 10 years ago. Promising team, QB gets hurt, Marv can't coach a playoff game, o-line starts to fall apart and Mikey doesn't want to pay a guard he drafted. Deja-freaking-vu.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
