Its time to get ourselves a real GM with total authority and a proven HC. We need to use the uncapped 2010 year to shed contracts for overpaid, underperforming guys like Randy Thomas, Casey Rabach, ARE, Clinton Portis, (Yes, Clinton Portis), Ladell Betts, Rock Cartwright, Andre Carter, Cornelius Griffin, and Fred Smoot and start building through the draft. 2011 will be capped again, so 2010 is the time to cut all the "fat." With all these changes, 2010 is probably going to suck. As will 2011. But if we play our cards right, around 2012 we will be poised to compete with the annual contenders - teams like the Giants, Steelers, Patriots, and Colts.

Sadly, the ownership and the fans don't have the patience for this.
