So IF this is happening and this is what Jim is preaching with the patience speak and why Ballard keeps pushing out the expectation for return of Luck...IF this is the case...

Why is Green in and where is Wilson and Hooker? IF this is the plan, then you need these guys getting reps right now- growing through the losses. That's not happening so far, instead we continue to see trash put on the field in position after position.

So, I don't see it being the case, I see it more of a combination of truly poor decisions in personnel over the course of several years- including this one, plus a coach who I truly don't think if he had AP in his prime lined up against Mike Hart he would be able to determine who was the better player...

And why waste another year of Luck? Especially if he's healthy. That's a lot of money standing on the sidelines.
