Woodcroft would be smart to take his experience and move on somewhere else sooner than later. The job he's done has been good from where they were after the team quit on Tippet, but that won't last too long into next year before the executive turn on him, undermine him, and thus the media turns in him, and the players have no idea what to think and start not to play for him.
He can ask the guy on the other bench when he shakes hands with him in 2 nights about the nightmare of spending multiple years and slowly but surely getting overruled on roster and line decisions from above, stabbed in the back, and name dragged through the media.
Of course, it probably won't be his choice and he'll get punted. Woodcroft doesn't nearly have the sexy name that Lowe wants to have run his team, given the other names he's brought in to run the team, mainly to strut around the league for his own hubris...makes too much sense that it won't be a guy like Babcock.
