I think if you want to blame anything, blame the plan.   The plan is, to draft young players and develop them.   Unfortunately for the fans, that takes years. That's why most teams don't have the guts to do it.   I think it will work in the end, because if we stack up 3 or 4 or 5 good drafts in a row, we will have a very talented team that is young enough to stay at the top for years.   

 

The commentators kept saying yesterday, we're the youngest team in the NFL.   It's easy to see the truth of that, with all the rookies and second year players out there.  

 

I was watching a later game yesterday, and one of the commentators was saying that the most difficult position for a rookie to make an impact besides quarterback was wide receiver.  Well, we are starting a rookie quarterback and two rookie wide receivers!  Not to mention starting a rookie center, rookie right guard, second year left and right tackle, second year tight end, second year running back, two second year cornerbacks, two second year safeties, etc etc etc. 

 

I admit, in the immediate aftermath of these losses, I want to fire everyone.   It takes about a day for me to cool off and realize, this is suffering we will have to endure, and that this plan might work.
