71% - Of the positions have been changed, and I would say a majority of the positions that changed has been a step back.

Not to mention there are a few players that we have kept around that have regressed by injury or age.

In two years that is a lot, IMO. Maybe it is not in today's NFL.

Fact is the team that went to a Super Bowl in 2008 is gone. This is a new era. Especially when you look at the amount of rookies, and young guys in the lineup.
