You're never going to see a turnaround like this again.
    Exactly.

    I'm usually skeptical about assigning too much blame or credit to coordinators. Fangio is different.

      How true is that? They were horrendous at the end of last season. Like you said, the worst I'd ever seen!

        The Arizona Cardinals came to Lincoln Financial Field in 2023 when the Eagles still could have won the first seed and scored every time they had the football. Every stinking time.

          In truth we were the worst team in the NFL at the end of the season.

            The Phoenician locals were so pleased with that game. They're big on plucky moral victories at the ass end of their too-many-to-count lost seasons around these parts.

            Needless to say, I'm having a swell time wearing my Super Bowl Fucking Champions hat around town this week.
