thrilled for his success this season and contract renewal. Kudos all around.

My perception from the cheap seats is that he kept the team's focus and intensity up this season better than any previous year. So long as Sitake has a disciplined, tough OC and/or DC and some assistants with that approach (think Poppinga and Wood), he can continue to be successful and be a LaVell type CEO HC. If Jay leaves and gets replaced with a softer DC and assistants, I will start worrying again. It has been a good ride this season, and it appears Sitake has figured out the coaching formula for success given his attributes as an HC.
