Being patient is unpleasant and it's unsexy, but I think in this case it will yield better results in the end.

Except the culmination of Trelivings moves have been bad and therefore he should not have a job.
I’m a huge Baltimore Ravens fan. I get continuity, it’s served the Ravens very well sticking with Harbaugh all these years. But that’s because Harbaugh is excellent at his job and therefore continuity is good. Continuity for the sake of continuity is bad. Part of the reason Trelivings job is in jeopardy is because he wasn’t patient with the rebuild and emptied the prospect cupboard way too early while mismanaging the cap in an attempt to hurry along the rebuild. This team is not positioned for drastic improvements because of the chains Treliving applied.
If the total disaster of a season so far keeps going and they don’t fire the architect then this team is even dumber than I have presumed
