You have to win in the trenches or with an elite QB in the this league and the Saints are built to win with everything but those, which just won't work. With a great coach and an average schedule this team would be about .500. We are about .500 now because the easy schedule and poor coach cancel out. |

We know how it ends
Kicking it down the road and guaranteeing that you can move on from aging vets or players not performing without kicking it down the road again. |

Besides, we're not kicking any cans. We're maximizing the cap by accounting for it in later periods when it counts as a far smaller percentage. Smart accounting. In other words, consistent competitive teams for a value enhanced price. |
