Can We Win With Our Small Scouting Department?

[THE PISTONS]

Here is how our division stacked up in 2016. Ask yourself, are our scouts just so good that we don't need as many as other teams?

And I hear that our coaches scout...but how can coaches scout college games in person during the season...while they play games themselves on Sunday?!?!?

Steelers:
The Steelers have 19 people in their 'Football Operations' Department.

Before you discount that numbers matter...both of these teams have won 2 Super Bowls each since we've won a playoff game and they've appeared in a combined 6!

Browns:
The Browns have 32 people in their 'Player Personnel' Department:
