because i think we are heading for a younger team
every time we make the playoffs it doesnt continue
we need a younger team to bring us all the way through and last

Are we fielding a better team than last years? Younger doesn’t equal better. Cutting Dunn, Hilliard, and maybe Galloway I agreed with. But Brooks could provide leadership, been a good role player and only cost you a roster spot and 3mil/yr. June is only 29 and obviously better than the LBs behind him or he wouldn’t be starting. All the FAs they’ve invited in aren’t signing for whatever reason. I will remain skeptical until opening day.

…I think there are two many questions lumped into this. Glazers being cheap? YES. Dominik not cutting it? Maybe not, but that might be directly because of the Glazers (as we’ve discussed before). Morris’ or Bates’ fault? Maybe, but again, how much are they being allowed to do at this point. I wouldn’t be surprised if we have new ownership within the next few years and the Glazers are holding back until that point. I’m not blaming Dominik or the coaches until it’s clearly something we can attribute to them. At this point, we honestly don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors.

That and there is too much of the “we have the money, we should sign people” going around. Sorry, but we are clearly in rebuilding mode. We just promoted a new coach that had only been a coordinator for about 2 minutes. We lost one of the best defensive minds in the game over the last 10 years. We cut two of the most recognizable players in the franchise’s history. And we are still one HUGE question mark at QB (and even other positions). Why would a number of those FAs sign with us when they are getting comparable offers from teams they may feel are closer to the promised land? Think of other sports even. Shaq went to the Lakers for less money than the Magic offered. At the time, the Lakers had more pieces to compete for years to come. All I’m saying is don’t write everything off as Dominik not doing his job or the coaches not selling the franchise well enough, if I’m one of these players, I’d probably be thinking the same thing Albert Haynesworth actually came out and said.

Just because a team has cap space, doesn’t mean they can get whoever they want. This isn’t Madden.
