Nah. Still too much talent on the team for that to happen. And guys like Armstrong, Gallimore and Fowler can be replaced with reasonable facsimiles. But the point is to close the gap on elite teams like Frisco, and that's a pipe-dream at this point.
This is exactly the issue.
I don't agree with people who think that we are going to fall apart or tank or otherwise suck (unless there are major injuries).
But the way they've set up this offseason, it'd take a miracle to actually get better from last year.
They're going to force picks in the draft at positions to fill holes. They lost 2 OL starters so expect an OL in round 1. Expect a RB in round 2 or 3. Expect a DT or LB also in the top 3 rounds wherever they didn't take a RB. They don't have a 4th so after that they'll fill in their typical CB, extra OL, LB or DT whichever they didn't take earlier, special teams and project types after that, and then they'll think they covered everything and pat themselves on the back.
And if they're lucky they will more or less fill their major holes.
The problem with that is that best case scenario they're treading water and covering for what they've lost. But they aren't actually getting better when that's supposed to actually be the goal.
Their true needs that you'd want them to address like another playmaking wide receiver and another reliable pass rusher and upgrades at RT and DT are getting ignored because they are just plugging holes to keep the dam from breaking.
And then everyone will be wondering why darn it all we just can't seem to break through.
