He needed them to win some games to take his ass off the fire. Problem is now they made moves to become respectable and proceeded to make the playoffs and set the expectations much higher than I think Dorsey and Reid would like them to be.
Personally I think they thought they'd be competitive and win 5-8 games, it explains that round stip in the Smith trade. Then all of the sudden they went out and play better than that and set expectations. So now the plan they had to rebuild while looking competent and not being a bottom feeder has been derailed.
People have expectations now and they're still approaching this like a team that won 6 games because that was the plan all along.
