tell me you don't know what you're talking about... without saying you don't know what you're talking about.... you can't replace the whole team in one draft and free agency.... our wide receivers suck.... but it's not what all the fans were calling for in the draft.... it was pass rushers... o-line... so are we supposed to replace o-line...defensive line .. secondary...wide receivers... line backers.... and so on in one draft and free agency.... putting all the blame on Urban Meyer right now is ignorant.... do I think he had some faults sure He's a new coach in the NFL.... we have a very young team and a lot of rookies... but I'm smart enough to know not to put the blame totally on urban... this team was horrendous last year and no coach in the NFL is going to come in and revamp this team to be winners in one season.... I know a lot of you guys have UDS but you got to get over it and take your medicine

In 2020, the team was in rebuilding mode and they were doing everything they could to set the team up for success in 2021.  They were trading veterans for draft picks and clearing salary cap space.  Last year, there were 16 rookies on the opening day roster.  We could have brought back the same team and probably would have won 2 or 3 games this year just because of more experience.  No, you can't change the whole roster in one off-season but you CAN make SIGNIFICANT progress.  NFL stands for "not for long".  Teams can and do make quick turn-arounds.  Meyer was handed the ability to draft 5 players in the top 65 and more salary cap room to spend in free agency than any other team in the entire NFL.  Winning one extra game isn't remotely close to being significant progress.
