I think there are or should be viewed as different levels of success. I like Milkmans take that it could potentially be viewed as neither, but I think it's more than that.
If we win a SB on his watch? Ultimate success We are SB contenders but (as Chiefs fans would know) get our hearts ripped out a few times by just getting beat by a team that was better? Successful. They win a playoff game or two (Wildcard)? Yeah, unsuccessful. |

But even more to the point, look at a guy like Mike Smith in Atlanta. I don't think there's anyone that would argue the Chiefs have better personnel or coaching yet in the past five years, the Falcons have won exactly one playoff game. One. So all of this bluster of "Super Bowl or Bust" is just slightly off the mark. |

Productive QB play.
Also, I was looking at the Bengals roster and if Reid decides to get a stable of pass rushers like this, then that might help. Michael Johnson, Dunlap, Gillberry, Hunt, Atkins, Still, Harrison. So far we've got Tamba and Houston.

I don't think you view 1 playoff win in 5 years necessarily a success in that it also goes the other way, especially when you think that a Tim Tebow led team won a playoff game. |

This team has had a winning percentage of .314 over the last 15 seasons. In what world would multiple playoff victories be viewed as unsuccessful? |

I hope Catapano and Poe exceed expectations this year.

Like I said in regards to Tebow, if they win a WC game like that, being a team that's obviously a fraud and never really build towards anything significant, I don't think it's a success. It's not really black and white though, so it's tough to judge. |

Franchise QB, Superbowl. In no particular order, although one is much more likely than the other.

Haven't really watched him play much. It'd be a new transition for him to a 3-4 iirc.

Honestly, after the past 7 years, I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't call it a success if he just made it exciting and tolerable to watch.
And thats extremely sad. |
