"We have a young team...."
No, you don't. When Pioli took this team over he had a young team. Unfortunately he hasn't actually added much in the way of young talent to it, so it's mostly just a team of guys that are in their primes and/or soon to be leaving them.
Football is a young man's game. Every single team in the NFL adds new guys in their early 20's every year. The difference between a 'young team' and a 'team with young guys' is that the young team has young players that actually contribute in a meaningful fashion.
This one doesn't. That excuse is horseshit and it just doesn't wash anymore. When Carr, Flowers, Lewis, Bowe, Dorsey, Albert, Pollard, etc... where feeling their way through the league as young starters, it was a 'young team'. Now it's just an aging team with a bunch of shitty draft picks sitting on the bench that happen to be on the right side of 25.
**** these guys so very much.
