I agree with your sentiment. Poor coaching and talent evaluation on defense has been a yoke around our necks since CSP got here. That said, I think Loomis and CSP kept the nucleus of a championship caliber team together for nearly 10 years before the cap finally caught up with us. That's not too shabby. 2 NFC championship game appearances, a Super Bowl win, and 5 trips to the playoffs in 9 years isn't bad.

2010 we were bitten by injuries. 2011 was our year, but we shite the bed in SF, we all know what happened in 2012, and we never really recovered. Last year, we were a Super Bowl team on paper and went all in with the Byrd signing until that blew up in our faces too. Now we are old and need to rebuild.

We simply didn't draft/develop well enough to go on a Pittsburg/New England type run, but I'm not mad because those types of runs are the exception. It's time to face facts and start thinking about the future, but I will not shite on Brees and CSP over this.

I agree with your even-keeled approach.

We're not a couple pieces away from a superbowl.
We made some tough but good decisions this offseason.
We need to continue to do so to rebuild this team.

Still, these coaches are hurting us.
We could draft 3 defensive lineman in the upcoming draft, one might still be on the team in 4 years.
They just aren't being developed.

Couldn't agree with you more, VS. Your post is one of the most rational and accurate posts on the current situation.

I'll never understand how some on here are so quick to throw Payton and Brees under the bus.
