Re: rome was not built in a day.......
 

its a nice theory that we are building a super bowl team but does it really take that long? we need to pick it up if we're going to contend with the afc

Re: rome was not built in a day.......
 

our core of players is very young.. reggie, colston, will smith, vilma, brees, PT, etc.. are all very young and very good players.. we will have a very competitive team for the next 6-7 years if we keep our core players intact and add to that thru the draft which we have been doing a much better job of for the past few years since paytons arrival...

Three years of rebuilding and I have to give this club two thumbs up with their moves so far.

Re: rome was not built in a day.......
 

With any new coach you have to assume it's a 5 year plan. If at year 6 we are not close then it's time to move on. Until then, as stated, I am content with what we are doing and how we are addressing needs and problems in our game.

Re: rome was not built in a day.......
 

i disagree. with a new coach u give them 3 years. 3 years gives them time to see what they have(year 1) fix the mistakes (years 2 and 3) and fine tune the roster(year 3). looks like this is paytons 3rd year. hes been a great head coach for our team so far. i think with a 5 year plan as u propose we need to be an elite team. after 3 years u give a contract extension and pray that the consistancy and talent keep coming.

agreed. since the payton era started our team has leapfrogged from where we were. i still think getting rid of stallworth was a mistake because he would be a great compliment to colston right now. however most of the other offseason and pre-season moves have been essential to bringing our club into contention
