No, sorry, disagree. You can play it down all you like, but Spillane has been excellent this year - Pro Bowl quality, Crosby has literally been the best defensive player in the league and a few others have been good as stated in my previous post. We have guys to build around. It’s not about having a team of stars, it’s about having limited weaknesses and coaching allowing the team to be greater than the sum of its parts. We add a quality DT and CB and we’ll be in business.

He's been our best LB but people were talking about keeping Perryman last yea because he was out best LB, which isn't saying much.  He's having a solid year but is limited in his skillset and was a backup on the Steelers, a backup who they let walk for a reason.  I am not saying we need to replace him but he is an average LB who is having a good year which has a lot to do with being on the field so much because our O is putrid.  

We have a D littered with jags.  Keep some as depth pieces but this team and D need an influx of young, above average talent.  That is a fact.

We need to add to the defense not blow it up. 

We have very little above average talent.  We can keep certain guys as depth pieces but we need an influx of young, above average talent.   This D is not good and don't let shutting down a bum like Dobbs fool you into thinking they are anything above below average.

Is this team honestly any different without McDaniels and Zeigler? Sure they have some "attitude" now but it's the same result.

half of the problem was zeigler put together a piss poor roster despite having the assets to be above average.  

the other half the issue was jmd was a crazy person and couldn’t structure and call and offense but also he alienated the players with his behavior.

putting any intern hc in with farva isn’t going to win many games.  we need a QB and upgrades across the roster including OL.  there’s no possible game plan that will get a win with how bad farva plays.

Dude just clearly wants to keep up the narrative the whole team is bad. Cleary we have pieces, we need a trigger man and some OL and a speedy RB on offense. Defense a top CB and DT another LB.
