This is just a thought, but... the people who blindly and relentlessly defend the upper levels of the franchise who are in charge of personnel -- weren't they the same people who told us that everything would be fine once the exhibition games were over and the regular season started?

I'm not calling for major changes to the coaching staff. I believe the structure is fine just the way it is -- and Saunders WILL pay dividends, it's only a matter of time. And I don't buy into the 'too many cooks in the kitchen' arguement.

I am firmly on the side that says the personnel decision making process needs to be revised. What has to stop is the current system, which resembles a couple of teenagers with a blank check from Daddy Warbucks'.

I disagree. Gibbs come in, has a rusty period with clock management issues and offensive issues. He still produces a 1300 yard rusher in that system, all the while GW leads the defense to third overall. The next year, with virtually the same team, Gibbs leads the team to a playoff win, two record setting team performances by both Portis and Moss. Both acquisitions of the current administration.

This year is most certainly an "off" year. While football is a team game, it's a lot of great individual efforts that make average teams great. You lose Pierson, Springs and Portis on day one. Springs and Portis are arguably MVPs on their respective sides of the ball. What is it that needs to be changed? Why does everyone have such a problem with how things are run?

After we made these offseason moves, we were all excited to be Super Bowl bound. Is it overspending then?
