Regression was always a possibility after a lot went their way the season before. As bad as they have been it's kind of been par for the course since Hartley took over as after four seasons the playoff year seems to be the aberration as they have finished 26, 27, 16, 28 est. Now part of the low placing in the standings is due to lacking talent but I feel the coaching staff should feel pretty lucky if they get another opportunity next season as this kind of performance over a four year period typically results in a coaching change.
