Rebuild should be showing improvement, rather then looking like a fire drill. If the team is taking a step backwards, thats the problem.

Right now, the team looks lost and can't seem to figure out now that the D's time and pass is taken away and the breakout stretch pass is taken away... now what?

That can't be the only success to the team, if they are "rebuilding" ... maybe Hartley finds something to help the teams game, but if he's not, the coach isn't part of the rebuild. The team is probably better then their record and chaotic play shows, and they'll probably have their good stretches in the season but this team has really got to look like an actual team and not a fire drill.
