That’s ironic, because if 17 years of history - and our fickle, impatient fandom - prove correct, that’s the time when the head coach, and entire coaching staff, will be fired.
Then, the new guys will have their own (much better) schemes to implement, starting the process all over again, and getting us all excited again.
That is, of course, unless the owners keep continuity, regardless of any inevitable ire from fans like us. That’s doubtful. Many of us were (hypocritically) wanting McD’s shiny bald head on a silver platter after wrongly picking Peterman as the starter, despite the fact that 85% of us wanted it in the first place.
