When You Lose To Win, You Lose

In a response to Joel Witmer's column from this morning, John Hnat says that drafting high doesn't guarantee squat.

The Morning After: Baltimore

Winless in the division. For the first time ever. Weren't we supposed to be a little further along by this point? In "The Morning After", Papa Cass takes a closer look at the Crennel/Savage regimes 1-11 record in division, and also finds that the team is actually 9-9 outside the division over the same stretch. Just two more games left before we can all concentrate on what we know: talking NFL Draft.
