often times it is just a matter of talent. The teams that win usually have several guys on each side of the ball that are just truly talented. Whether it is speed, height, size. Our guys tend to not be as talented as the teams we face. That is why Cam coming here is such a big deal. We haven't taken the guy that was truly a physical monster since Julius Peppers, be it either FA or the draft. IMO that is why Hurney is not here. It wasn't the Win/Loss column it was the fact that the contracts didn't match the talent. I don't mean to say that our guys are not good players. We have some guys that are true warriors and we have to definitely have one teams with the most heart in the league. But ask yourself how many guys on our defense can say they are among the biggest, or most powerful at there position? Or how many of our skill guys on offense can say they are the fastest.

Yeah our guys are fast or big enough to be in the league. They are definitely skilled enough and with scheme they can compete with anybody. But if you ask me, what we are missing is talent. This is the NFL, and everybody is really good. Hard work and dedication separates the good from the great, but sometimes you just gotta be bigger and faster than the other guys. Case and point Torry Smith vs Champ Bailey tonight, or the Seahawks secondary all season long.

    • The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.  
    • For our pics and trades tonight and tmrw.  Remember, Aho was a 2nd rounder and Slavin was a 4th rounder. 
    • Seems to be the consensus from the talking heads. I really wish we had double dipped at center in the 2nd round. Sion will never play in the league.
