5-2 is good enough to keep most HC's jobs, and BB has certainly earned a certain amount of latitude. Having said that, I have been horrified by how bad the defense has been this season - dead last in the league in yards allowed, dead last in passing yards allowed - but I gave BB some slack because his schemes are notoriously complex and there was no offseason. But I expected or at least hoped for things to be much better after the bye week. Didn't see it today.
So do we still trust in BB? Yes and no. A lot of HC's could win with TFB. He seems to no longer be capable of building a defense. Let's remember that when he won those SBs we had a defense built largely on Parcell's draft picks - Ty Law, Will McG, Tedy, Lawyer, and so forth - plus some astute free agent pickups and trades that worked out (Vrabel, Rodney). The Midas touch seems to have abandoned his Hoodiness these days - Ochostinko can't get his damn hands on one ball, DB's are drafted or signed and given $Ms and then released (Meriweather, Bodden, Sanders, ...) - It's time we all put down the spiked coolaid and remember the immortal words of the Great Vince Lombardi:
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON OUT THERE??
