Good drafts, good re-signings
Stick with the coach
As long as it's the right coach - you need to find a good coach in order to stick with them. Kinda like a franchise QB - find one and stick with them as long as you can or until you have the next one in hand. Good coaches/GMs and stable organizations tend to go hand in hand. If you stick with a bad coach (or QB) for a long time for the sake of stability, you may end up missing out on a good coach (or QB).
I'm all for giving Chip another year, but Baalke has to go. It's time to give another GM a shot.
I am with you- that was more a comment on FO stability and health.
I am a Ducks homer so I am more than willing to ride out with Chip - would like to see someone else drive the D next year though.
