Let's face it that's the true hurdle he has to clear. It's not who the position coaches are, it's not what players he gets in free agency, it's not who he drafts, it's not what offense he runs.
This team has a history of losing nearly three decades long, even in the playoff seasons we were one and done all 7 times ! We fold up under the lights nearly every time, rarely do we beat the good teams in the league when we need it most. We implode at the slightest sign of adversity way more often than not. The Steelers have owned us for far to long now. And the list goes on.
Can he get that culture turned around ? Can he win with the leagues worst GM ? Can he get this team to focus on team and not I ? Can he get this team to stay steady under pressure, can he get them to buy in ? Can he get them to not listen to the noise against Pittsburgh ?
That's his biggest test of all
No question that is the question. All i know is it was a start, cleaning house and it needed to be done badly. Not liking what that Troy dude said the other day and i hope Zac will have more pull cause he will have to win in spite of idioticy it seems. I think Zac is going about it the right way, FA went not as i hoped and we did much less than i expected to help out the new HC.
I know he said he liked the Free Agency that we did but i have a sneaking feeling he is just saying the right things.
We will only know this once the season comes around if there is a different air around here.
The Marv stink is gone and i like it. We will see if Taylor can get rid of the bad Brown and Blackburn stink.
Will not be easy, but in the end it comes down to the coaches and players and working with what they got. It is possible now.
