If you want to luck into a "one hit wonder" superbowl appearance and have a career of mediocrity, thats what Jason Campbell may give you. If you want continued success, we need to look elsewhere.

I think the better question, or atleast what I feel like has been said repeatedly. Is how many SB's did the Hogs, and the Coach's system give us. Most of us look at the 80s era as the glory of the Skins, a TEAM that won consistently year in year out, no "franchise" player but rather OL/DL's that were physical and renowned and home grown.
And yes I would take the 80s - early 90s over hunting and pecking changing coaches/qbs/systems every two years when the current golden child is no longer so golden.
New England isn't having this decade due to Brady, but because of the system-stability- and smart long term patient moves. Same with Pittsburgh. Same with Philly.
Build the TEAM, not grab the current hot babe.
