What do you mean not following? Not attending the games? Not caring if they win or lose? Not watching the games on TV? Just what kind of fan are you?

Ballard will have to hit on somebody obviously and I'm sure he knows Brissett isnt gonna get the job done. |

I think we should stay conservative, keep building the team and let fromm and brissett compete for the starting job. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk

Half of the Superbowls have been won by a QB Not drafted in the first round. So drafting a guy in the first round guarantees nothing.

It guarantees nothing. But since there are 7 rounds and fully half of the Super Bowl quarterbacks come from the first round your odds are a hell of a lot better with a first round quarterback. And one guy from NE screws up the odds big time.

So we are back to square one... look I get it a QB in round one can help chances but not guarantee. Bart Starr, Johnny Unitas, Kurt Warner, Brett Favre, Russell Wilson, Joe Montana.... yep none of these SB winners picked in the first round. Again.. hoping that Ballard can find us the right guy regardless of what round.... maybe he is bagging groceries somewhere. Last edited by Luck4Reich; 01-18-2020 at 11:28 AM. |

I'm playing Devil's advocate more than anything. If we all agreed on everything it wouldn't be any fun.
Love to see Joe Burrow on this team. |

Fromm doesn’t throw downfield either. I don’t know if he will be much better. Until QB is fixed, everything else has to take a backseat. Otherwise we are the Bungles or Browns. Have some decent talent. It will eventually leave bc guys want to play for teams that win.

Going to assume you are too young to have seen Bradshaw play. Ot sure why you would lump him into that argument. He was a good QB. Swann and Stallworth didn’t throw the ball to themselves. Yes their D was good but he was also SB MVP at least once. Won 4 Super Bowls in 6 yrs He gets a bad wrap

But other things should be considered. Do they have a good team around them? Did they get thrown to the fire or did they sit and learn first? Was it a good QB draft? A lot of factors figure into a QB’s success, not just his skill level and draft position. Teams may get a good QB but never win a SB, because you have to then put a team around that QB. Not every front office is good at that. Yet a good QB can cover up a lot of holes in a team and take you into the playoffs. You can win with decent QB play, but you have to be very strong in several other areas. We don’t even have average QB play, I think Brisset finished 26th, he is easy to scheme against and isn’t good enough to carry the passing game. Just go back to ‘98 and see how many misses there are after the first. http://www.nfl.com/draft/history/ful...?type=position Last edited by Chromeburn; 01-18-2020 at 02:09 PM. |
