{2023 Thread Bumped} Underhill Giving No Quarter to Nick Wright

Jmo but the drop-off has had more to do with Brees retiring, MT being MIA and of course with last season Payton leaving. So I'd argue that has more to do with change of leadership than change in talent, although there's some of both.

I really don't think the salary cap and how it's been managed has all that much to do with it.
No doubt those players being hurt and key personnel leaving hurt them. I'll agree with that 100%. If fan's could see it coming, so could they. Only the Sean departure was a surprise. My question is why didn't they do something about it? I'm not arguing against their strategy. I may not agree with it, but that doesn't matter. I don't care if they resigned Tuttle and DO or not. I have one simple point. Their management of the cap is a factor. To deny it would be disingenuious. At least for me. It is what it is.
