1. Get a new owner
2. Build a new stadium
3. Spend money on a legit front office
4. Spend money on a coaching staff
5. Don't micromanage. Let the money people worry about money. Let the football people worry about football
6. Draft a qb of the future (even if this takes 100 tries keep trying)
7. Don't self inflict holes and use draft picks to replace the holes when they leave. Instead keep your upper echelon players, and draft to fill depth.
