Ownership philosophy is the problem

The reasoning is that TEAMS win championships and you cannot build a Championship roster of players via the draft.  It’s just not going to happen because you have guys developing and peaking at different times.  As we’ve seen now we lose guys once they’ve peaked and have to go right back to developing new guys.  We went through two cycles with Palmer and now we are on our second cycle with Dalton.  Only the downward cycle at o-line destroyed Palmers elbow.  

Marvin’s drafted real well as one could expect but they are still filling in holes with what are most likely rotational to mediocre guys from other teams late in free agency and expecting too much out of some of our later draft picks.  

So until Brown changes his philosophy on free agency and stops promoting rejects within the organization to Coordinator positions / position coaches, it doesn’t matter who the head coach is.  

On a side note...I don’t know who wields the power to bench underperforming players but I’d like to see some accountability and less job security for repeat underperforming offenders going forward.  /rant
 THANK YOU....I've been saying this all along. People on here call it Mike Brown Bashing.  Well, he more than anybody deserves Bashing on this team....TIME is maybe in Fans favor...Pete Brown just passed away and Mike Brown is no Spring chicken...I see a changing of the guard in this front office as TIME, OLD AGE, and DEATH wait for no man.  I do not wish this on him or anyone, but the fact remains that TIME and AGE are going to FORCE front office moves. They already have with God calling Pete Brown assistant GM unto Heaven....For the Fans, I hope the front office changes bring more wins. I am 63 and TIME is not in my favor either, but for the younger fans, I hope front office changes bring more wins.
