Just looking to win 10 games and then praying you get hot might be even more short-sighted. You could potentially end up in the Playoffs every year and never really get close. If we just wanted to win 10 games we could have signed a game manager, but we signed a Super Bowl MVP. 

The Giants went 10-6, slipped in with a wild card, and won the whole thing.  

What I am objecting to is the idea that we have to go for broke to win the Super Bowl.  That's what we did in the late 90s, and as a result, we went way over the cap and had to unload players, and as a result, we were condemned to wander in the wilderness for a decade.  Don't you remember that?  

Do you remember trading up for Derek Harvey because our front office thought that was the last piece of the puzzle?  If instead, we had thought long term, and just made good solid choices, we'd could have had a contender for years.  

You can't go all out to win the Super Bowl if it means mortgaging your future.
