Starting to believe we don't have a clue what we're doing despite all the assurances is "we have a plan...we had a plan a long time ago" type stuff gets floated and spoken to during press conferences. By what we've seen and heard, it looks like chaos but that might be due to seeing nothing for 13 years...more bored than the Maytag repair man.
Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."
