I feel like we had a Top 3-5 Roster in the NFL for a couple seasons.

As I said...instead of being a bottom 5 team in the NFL as were were for much of the 90's...we're perennially a Top 12-14-16 team.

I do feel that we've lost a lot of talent through attrition from our top roster...and we haven't exactly done a great job of drafting recently. Guys like Billings and Jackson could step in and be dominant players to offset some of that. And perhaps we'll draft a couple Pro Bowl guys this year.


We will win a playoff game eventually. Sheer probability factors into this.

I am a bit excited to see what these two can do.  I only hope Marv will let the kid takes his lumps early in the secondary instead of starting him year 4.
