I'm not optimistic...but for those of you who are, I pose a question for you. At which key front office / coaching position are we above the NFL average? GM? Scouting? Head coach? DC? OC? All of them? None of them? I say none of them, and that is precisely why I am not optimistic.
Competitive sports is zero-sum. It's not just that you have to be "good" in some absolute sense, you have to be good relative to your peers. Perhaps Herm Edwards is a fine coach. Perhaps Carl Peterson is a fine GM. But are they in the top 10 in the NFL? If not...
