My confidence in Daniels is set, my concerns are about the organizational tempered recognition and subsequent reluctance to go full force to maximize what they are getting with him will be the difference between having a playoff worthy team and another losing season.

I don’t think we have enough players to be in the playoffs . And I don’t want to give up future resources just to contend for a WC spot .coach this team to a WC spot this year and assess what you have

From my POV, it's not a matter of not having enough players, but not the right type of players.
If there was a poll taken among players, and coaches, asking whether or not they would prefer to do what was necessary to win in 2024 or wait until next year, to begin winning, 100% of them would be behind winning now.

I know that this positioning is a "glass half full or half empty" proposition with the more cautious (half empty) thinkers, wanting to build from weaknesses, but there is another POV to consider and that's making assessments from a position of strength. Winning (Half full) teams do it all of the time. Neither is wrong or out of place given the history of the organization, but, again if we polled the new ownership group with the question being a choice between wearing the mantle of the previous management team or something new, 100% would choose the latter.

That is because they are biased…their jobs rely on it and that is old school thinking.
