Our WR's don't play aggressively enough to suit me. Even though we traded up for Cooks we still aren't getting the production we desperately need. Cooks needs to heal fast and watch film until he's dizzy.

Next year we are going to need to bring in another WR early on in the draft........again. Dammit! We have too many pressing needs to keep pouring draft picks into the WR position.

Defense was suspect the year we won the Super Bowl. We just caused turmovers. We've never been smash mouth under Payton, and we never will be. The smart thing to do is strengthen the offensive line and get better at wide receiver. Jump out on teams early and make them one dimensional. Hopefully we can sign a couple ppeople who can pressure the quarterback, then I'm sure we'll get the results we want. You can't have a dominate offense and defense with the salary cap. Something is going to lack. I prefer we use the formula that won it all for us.
