The one thing Bowles doesn't get enough blame for....

I disagree.  The Glazers put their faith in Licht.  That's evidenced by them giving the extension to both Licht and Bowles at the same time.  And by not firing Bowles after last season they're basically saying to Licht "You wanted him you got him.  We're not changing our mind after six months." 

The Glazers have tons of faith in Licht, but there is another way to read what you are describing and that is that they are on the same page, Glazers and Licht. 

Glazers extend Bowles then and keep Bowles now because Bowles is willing to coach the team through thee loss of Evans, the retirement of Vea, the retirement of LVD  . ..  Godwin next. Even the potential loss of Mayfield, although I dont think that happens.
