This year's hype is the new coach.  For years fans have been telling the Mike they'd have hope with a new coach.  So now they have him.  That should be the hype needed to sell more seats.

Of course long term winning sells more than hype.

But if you haven't been winning for a few years, you need as much hype as possible to sell tickets. I'm not sure a coaching change alone is enough. When we hired Marvin Lewis, we also drafted Palmer and signed Kevin Hardy, John Thornton, Duane Clemons, Tory James, Reggie Kelly, etc. It was a new coaching staff AND a good off-season in general.

This off-season pales in comparison.
