Re: The Sam Howell Thread
It's easy to sack a coach that's made the playoffs once in his tenure, and not come close in his next 3 years. Harder if he does it again this year, especially if we get at least 1 playoff win. I say it doesn't matter how many wins we get, unless we make the playoffs and don't get hammered in the first game, RR is gone.
I don't think SH is on a short leash, though that will change if he falls apart by mid-season, which i doubt he does. Plus I doubt anyone on this staff sees JB as a future starter. Swapping to him at any point except injury smells of desperation and that's as good as a nail in RRs coffin. He's hitched his wagon to SH for richer or poorer, and i think he sticks with him barring disaster.
