I'm not saying that to defend Casserly who obviously made bad choices but just to say I'm not shocked at the turnover rate three years into a new regime. Go look at the Saints and find out how many players are still heldover from before Sean Payton was hired.

As for dreaming of dynasties, knock yourself out. But reality tells me otherwise.

Bob I would rather look at the Steelers, they are closer to what a team should be. Give me a little time and I will report back to you on there turnover.

I get your point Bob, we changed styles and thus type of players needed, but to be an elite team you have to be consistent and that is where we should strive to be, A team like the Colts, Titans or Steelers, not a team like the Raiders.
