I certainly hope that is not the case, but I fear you are correct.
To give coach Lewis a pass on this season for any reason is to willfully ignore everything prior to this year.
This is a failed experiment that has been given more than ample time to produce meaningful results beyond a winning season 44% of the time. It reached a certain plateau -- where it failed to ascend any farther -- and has fallen off from there. It seems to me that continuing for another season demonstrates a certain amount of apathy and / or indolence by ownership.
