Last season and this offseason, people on this sub mostly agreed to trust Pete and his personnel/coaching decisions, no? But now we lose two games and people are calling for Pete’s head? Something is wrong, we knew it wasn’t a one-year process, we have young players, and letting them develop for a year while still making the playoffs and being somewhat competitive isn’t a bad thing.
It’s all about expectations.
Last year we were supposed to suck and have a season where we tank and use the high first round pick this year to start a rebuild. Instead we delegated the tank to Denver and managed to end up in the playoffs defying expectations.
This year we loaded up on more good draft picks, seemingly having a better roster and people expected a better season. Instead we’re performing like last season.
