Nick Underhill and Mike Triplett on the possibilities of a Head Coach change happening after the season

I partially disagree with this. DA wasnt given a ready to go winner. If we miss the playoffs this is the 3rd year in a row we missed the playoffs not the second. Those who think that the 2021 roster was a playoff ready roster are in just as much denial as those who think DA is doing a great job.

And the large rpotion of the parts that made us playoffs hopefuls in 2021 werent on the roster when DA had his first game.

I wont argue to keep DA, not my fight, but the contrarian in me asks that we at least remove this false argument as we make a logical case to "take steps for the future".

I think it's important to consider both the teams' performance before Allen's 1st year, as well as Loomis' assessment of the team when he was hired and throughout this year.
1) Allen inherited a borderline playoff roster after Sean left, as we were technically in contention with a MASH unit of a team in 2021
2) Upon hiring Allen, Loomis maintained he felt we had a winning culture and the parts to be a winning team. After his first year, the consensus by both Loomis and Allen was QB was the biggest hole, so we went out and signed Carr.

Now, I do agree that the team's overall talent is probably overrated and we need to get younger. However, several observers felt we had a good enough roster to be a playoff team at least.
