9-7 in 1998, and then 8-8 in 1999.
Carroll may or may not have gotten a fair shake as a coach. Bobby Grier's drafts were TERRIBLE, and we were way over the cap.

Could Pete Carrol be his "ace up his sleive" for coach? Just asking? But, just because he was at NE doesn't mean he has a relationship with Pioli????

Yes!!!
But, ususlly the coach chooses his staff and if he chooses poorly then he is not a good coach. The coach chooses who will play and how he coaches. I know top talent really helps that process.
