I think there are 4 more winnable games (MN, ATL, AZ, and GB). Given that it's always been a rebuild project, I think we keep Poles, Flus, and Fields if we get 7 wins, especially if we look okay in the losses.

The team is on the way up, still playing hard, and I think 3 years is a more reasonable timeline.

I would be mostly here if it was just our 1st and a 7-10 record precluded us from getting a top QB in the draft. But with what's very likely the 1.01-1.02, we simply cannot re-repeat the mistakes of the past by handing a highly drafted rookie QB to a lame duck coach and then stunting his development by changing the entire staff before year 2 (see also Fox-Trubs, Nagy-Fields). If we want to keep Flus/Getsy we need to commit to keeping them at least another 3 years. Does anyone want to do that? I sure don't.
