The fact that we have a higher base salary than teams like the Colts, Patriots, Chargers is laughable when you compare wins and losses over the past couple of seasons. In retrospect the Gianst are something like 20 million dollars under the cap and we are twenty over, so we pay our team 40 million dollars more than the team that just won the superbowl.... awesome!

very true & a point that's been made publicly by any no. of media peops, not to mention warpath posters!

I agree w/the capologists here that we won't be in "cap hell" as some like to say, but that doesn't get to the point of how the team acquires & pays players, which seems utterly inefficient w/regards to building a winning team. Last year's offseason was an improvement & I'm hoping for a repeat of that.
