They finished 8-9, they didnt deserve playoffs
The offense was in no way any good, hes getting plenty of blame, he was getting a ton of criticism about not incorporating more play action, deeper passing windows etc.
They were 3 for 61 or whatever on 3rd and 10 or more the broadcast kept showing
17th in offensive dvoa
I dont see how anything about this year was good for him, he was probably seen as a top 5 OC in terms of his career options going forward and who guys would could see as future head coaches
After this year hes just another guy, needs to rebuild his reputation to even sniff a head job
