Mike may gauge team/player success by comparing to the bottom, not the Top

Well, it's POSSIBLE, but if we do win the Super Bowl it's not because we did things Mike's way,b ut rather we just got really lucky or someone played/coached WAY above their abilities or all the other teams were hit with major injuries.

You gotta do what you gotta do.

It's a results-oriented world...unless you are obscenely rich and can only be fired by yourself.  Mike Brown wants to make money and give his friends and family members great jobs and security.  That is what he wants.  I can't knock the guy for that.  Based upon his actions, he wants THAT, not to win a SB.

td,dr = Mike Brown wants to win like every schmo at karaoke night wants to be the next Paul McCartney/Bono/Elvis/Doodletown Pipers, etc.

Of course it's not acceptable. And Mike's desire to win a Super Bowl may not be enough to get him to change his ways, but I don't doubt he wants to win one. Pretty much like your "tl,dr" says. Or it's like a smoker who wants to quit smoking but not enough that he does whatever is necessary to quit.
