I think it's more likely my deep thinking is making it simple.
We aren't a bad organization
We don't have the right QB, the right coach
We do have talent
The Patriots have the type of salary and cap that we're faulting the Saints for not having....and they are still losing, Whats the one correlation? They didn't develop a succession to their HOF QB
It's simple If Allen bombs out, remove him and try to find a new pairing. If he doensn't bomb out, keep working your way towards a manageable cap, while also trying to stay competitive AND developing the QB's you drafted. Most of it depends on what this team does from now thru their final game. We won't know how this plays out until then. Either we'll have missed the playoffs or we'll make it. Both present a glimmer of hope, either in that we'll rebuild or that we don't have to go through a full on rebuild. Both should be welcomed w/ open arms.
