I think the fact that many fans now believe the major parts are in place on this team, they are expecting this team to start rising. I think we at least have to be in the playoff-chase conversation this year. We can't be bottom 5. Bust is obviously too strong of a word, but with it being Trelivings biggest hire, and him being a young somewhat unproven coach, I do think there is more pressure on him to show positive signs sooner rather than later.
