I see this as a warning to the Management to be ready for a tough year and plan accordingly.

Ireland and Parcells, the personnel guys don't have to think that way in the off season. In fact, they shouldn't be. They should have a long-term plan in place, and I think they will take everything into consideration like this year's schedule in order to implement that plan.
