I'm really sick of people constantly defending Loomis and his terrible decisions.

Loomis is certainly not without some blame for this mess, but he's not the architect of this unstable project...that's on Payton.
Loomis is told by Payton who he wants on the team and it's Loomis' job to sign them.
Where Loomis fails is he didn't do his job; he didn't have the confidence or experience to just say "No".
