Totally agree.
It has already begun.
We are no longer Superbowl Champs.
And its a bitter pill.

Yeah, that's what I don't get. We have already been in a rebuild mode for most of the past two seasons. All of these people calling for blowing the team up and starting over must be blind. In addition, this past off-season there were some major moves in the personnel area of the front office and it looks like it has already reaped benefits with our best draft since 2006.

There's nothing wrong with the formula we've used in the past. Address weaknesses with mid tier free agents and draft BPA.

The problems have been when we over-spend on free agents and totally swing and miss in the draft.

We just need to adhere to the formula that works instead of big splash free-agency, over-spending on our own players and drafting crappy players.
