Yeah I don't care about that either. My primary concern is how much credit he deserves for the SB win and how much blame he deserves for the subsequent slide. I don't have strong stances on either so I've been curious to see other takes.
This is the same debate with any coach who has had success, because most teams reach a peak and then slide back in a league designed for parity. How much credit does he get for this, how much blame for that, they had this player, that coach. If a guy can be successful for a few seasons with a particular group and knock off top teams in big games, he's up to the job. It's not going to happen every year, Philadelphia also fired Andy Reid.
