Weapons or Defense?

I'm gonna cheat a little bit. I will say defense, but I think this team still needs to get a bigger bodied outside WR.

I think they need to change the way they play offense a bit and get more outside threats rather than all the small receivers who go over the middle. I think what has hurt them most in the playoffs in recent years is that teams could flood the middle of the field and take away the receivers.

But for the playoffs, defense is more important. You need a good, but not great offense. But they let defenses play in the post season and the rules of the regular season where all the rules benefit the offense goes out the window a bit.

If I was making personnel decisions, my priority would be to get another pass rusher (probably a DT), a big hitting saftety, and re-sign Talib or get his replacement. The offense has some needs that have to be filled (a center, another outside WR, and another TE), but I don't know if filling those roles with top line talent is as important.

Look at this guy coming around. Welcome to the dark side.
