In today's NFL, how many coaches anywhere would get more than 3-4 years to get at least a playoff game? I'm not positive, but I would guess on average it's 3 years...and we're above average :)
LOL. I guess it's all how you look at it. Our perception may be that we are above average but our performance over the past 10 years would say otherwise.

Not many, and it explains why coaches are fired all the time. Good coaches have good players, or at least the players make the coach look good. Have you ever seen a bad coach coaching a good/winning team? It's more often than not the other way around.

I think the true problem with us is before Lewis came on board yesterday who had experience in the WCO besides Zorn? I don't think anyone has therefore i'm not convinced all the coaches know what they are coaching. Other coaches bring in Cam Cameron, Dom Capers, Mike Nolan & etc. All previous coaches who had experience and know what they are doing.
Good point. I have seen others point that out as well. I don't think this means the end of Jim Zorn. Maybe they just brought Lewis in to get a fresh perspective on things and to help coach up the coaches.

Staying the course wouldnt have saved the Titanic from sinking ...
Interesting note I once learned. If the Titanic had changed it's course one minute earlier, or one minute later, the ship would have survived. I think earlier and they would have missed the iceberg, later and they would have rammed the front compartment which was sealed and would not have flooded the whole ship.

Not to get off the point but if they would have changed course later wouldn't they have already hit the iceberg? http://www.thewarpath.net/images/icons/icon10.gif

I think that there has been progress. It just hasn't translated into points and wins yet. If the Skins stay the course, they can get there.
So are you saying the Skins are close?

Well I have to take that 1 minute earlier would be one minute before they hit the iceberg and one minute later would have been one minute after they hit the iceberg. So what am I missing?

If they can start scoring in the Redzone, then yes they are close.
