There is a contingent of fans that think the things that went wrong last year, like injuries and DA, were the only things that went wrong last year. They don't see the QB position as a problem, they don't see our aging players as a problem, they don't see trading away draft picks to move up as a problem and they don't see our incredibly thin roster as a problem. They think it was just bad luck and want to run it back the same way, with added liabilities from kicking the can and signing free agents we can't afford, and deal with the consequences later.
The problem is that we've been doing it that way for a while and still not winning. Even when Drew was in his last couple of seasons we needed a QB, and to get younger, and depth at lot of positions. We were on borrowed time even then and now it's 5 years later and nothing has changed.
I'm giving Loomis some grace for being an optimist and believing the window was still open for the last few years and I won't hold it against him for brushing over our issues when speaking to the media. But I'd like to see a shift in tactics to match the actual reality. This season is the perfect time to pivot with so many other changes coming.
