The Glory season has long been over and all that is left is clutching at
memories of a time from a long time ago.

I was doing some thinking this morning and I think we might have a culture that is far more toxic than the bad days of the Haslett and Ditka eras. Payton plays favorites and the accountability is uneven at best. We could have a corporate mentality where ever player is out for themselves and the bonding between our players, the trust, is only there on the surface.

We'd be better off with a new enthusiastic coach players are willing to play hard and fall on a grenade for, even if that coach isn't as accomplished as Payton.

We should also not get caught up in the offensive vs defense mindset of looking for head coaches. After all, we once hired the defensive Haslett and it ended up being mainly the offense that flourished!
