Walt Harris to the Pro Bowl

[Beemnseven]

I guess there are a number of different ways you could take it, but the way I would present the issue is, was our pass defense better or worse after Walt Harris left for the 49ers? Or, would Walt Harris have provided a better chance to intercept passes for us compared to the players we assembled?

And it's very likely Harris wouldn't have been THE difference maker for the secondary assuming he was still here. But one thing is certain, the team that this front office brought to the field in 2006 was sorely lacking. Why it was so markedly different from '05 can be attributed to any number of reasons. I maintain it was age that crept up on many players that the organization had not adequately planned for. We can either give them a pass for not "being able to look into a crystal ball" or we can call it for what it is. A disasterous outing from absolutely every angle. And not one person can escape blame.
