I don't think he is as lucky as you may think. He is coming in taking over a 14-2 team which is hard to duplicate no matter who you are in the NFL. If he goes 11-5 which is still a very good season then still misses the playoffs or losses in the playoff people will point to him as the cause. He is almost in a lose lose situation more than a win win. Now take a coach taking over a 3-13 team if they can go 7-9 it would look as a big improvement which is much easier most of the time.
