We allocate money to the defense because if your defense sucks, you have very little chance to win the SB. I too, wish that we had invested more into WR. Yet somehow, you are a dismal pillar of pain, while I’m still as enthusiastic as ever. We have the best player in the world and we can win a SB every season because of that fact.
We’ve been contenders for 4 seasons. In 3 of those seasons, we were beaten by a dynasty team that rolls through everyone almost every postseason. It’s not as if we’re doing things wrong. We’ve been beaten the the better (and luckier):team. A transition season is inevitable for every team with stud QBs getting paid. They didn’t do it the way you would’ve done it- hence your aura of pessimism and sadness
