They went out and spent a trillion dollars on the defense, overturned the entire starting lineup, overturned the entire coaching staff, scrapped the entire scheme and started over.
The team is 3-0 and just beat what many considered one of the contenders in the AFC and he we are discussing...
"Frank Clark ****ing sucks"
I guess it's just too much to expect CP to undergo any kind of significant emotional growth. We're just too condition to pull everything apart and complain about it.

I believe we're discussing more than that, sir.
What you're seeing is the heightened scrutiny that comes with real expectations. When the difference was 7-9 vs. 11-5 and a 1st round loss - who gives a shit?
But now the difference between say Clark or Smith+Ya Sin could genuinely be a SB championship.
You're damn right that brings with it added frustration. And why shouldn't it?
When it matters - it matters. That's when stuff like this SHOULD be subject to additional scrutiny. Otherwise you're just multiplying by zero - no?
