I get that we are not getting dominated but we are not dominating anyone either. A team that cannot dominate Atlanta, Carolina, Minnesota, or Seattle is not going to win a Super Bowl. So if we don't have what it takes to win it all, and we don't have the cap space or draft picks to get there next year, what we need to do is rebuild.
Loomis didn't steal my sweetie, he stole my Sundays, and is threatening to do so for the rest of the decade. We have journeyman QBs, one of the oldest rosters in the league, no first round pick to look forward to in April. Thats what that idiot stole. Terry Fontenot has made some bad moves in Atlanta like wasting the 4th overall pick on tight end, but at least he sees his team needs to rebuild and took the $ 40 million cap hit to clear dead space and make room for the future. Mickey Loomis is setting us up to get dominated by Atlanta for years because yeah we beat them by a hair now, but only after they kept their draft picks and cleared their dead cap that sets them up to beat us big in the future. When your rival is making hard choices and sacrificing the present to rebuild and your team is maxing out all cap space and draft assets to win now and damn the future and the two teams look to be on the same level, that is a bad sign for the future. I fear Fontenot may have been the only voice of reason in the room and ever since he left what good personnel moves have we made with the lunatics running the asylum? Trading our 1st? Max deal for Taysom Hill after concussion and foot injury so we can get the occasional highlight reel game against a gutter defense? Going into 2020 with no receivers? Trading CDG for nothing? Ignoring Marcus Mayes dual threat injury history and discipline issues?
But Bako, hardly ANY team is dominating. Again, look at Tampa (preseason favorites) needing the refs to bail them out. Rams (last years Champs) looked ugly this weekend. Only teams with stable QBs like Bills and Chiefs are “dominating”. The game just doesn’t work that way. It’s a long season. Both of Giants SBs under Eli Manning were won as wildcard teams that struggled during regular season. I understand wanting to win but, outside of Billichik/Brady NO organization overcomes the bar you’ve set.
