Perhaps, but people were not happy with us moving on from Laurinaitis when we did to go with CL. It might actually work out just as well if we move on from CL.
Of course, some people just fear change. They grow attached to a personal favorite without regard to impact, CAP or future repercussions. There are a lot of casual fans who only see what's on the field and don't bother with the gears which make it turn. Laurinaitis is one example of a guy who was basically done while his buddy Chris Long was allowed to walk and still produced some good years at a reasonable price elsewhere, and getting two rings with two different teams in the process.
I wanted to move on from Laurinaitis years before we did, watched the same thing happen with Archuleta and many others, ... some fans as well as some coaches struggle letting go.
We want to trust our front office to do the right thing, then bitch about every move until it proves the wiser choice, ... or not. We see some teams relying more on analytics or a form of science if you will, and others appear to operate by emotion, school is still out on the relatively young McSnead association, and this is a pivotal year to witness how they will operate going forward, but I like what i've seen up to now and have no reason not to trust our direction. It's going to be an interesting off-season however it turns out.
jmo.
