In his mind he's had lots of bad luck, beginning with the creation of free agency, then player revolt, then bad coaches, then can't miss draft picks who didn't play well, then small market problems, then and then and then and then and then and then and then.
I'd wager Mike Brown thinks he's very competent at making money and providing for his family. Mike Brown's priorities just aren't on winning, and he's fine with that. Sort of like how I'm fine with eating a half gallon of ice cream and watching TV when I know I could be drinking a protein shake and working out.
Humans are simple creatures. We do what is rewarding to us. Mike Brown has his system down and it yields rewards he wants, not ones we want. I simply don't see significant evidence that Mike Brown is legitimately trying to win in the NFL. It's his business to run, fair or not, and it's up to me if I want to align myself with it. How crazy are we for sticking around? Oof.
