southparkcpa Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 1 hour ago, Lizard King said: Tomlin has been blessed with the greatest general manager in football. He has cut better receivers than we have drafted over the past decade. He has David Decastro on his line whom he drafted. He has begun a rebuilt backfield to replace Polamalu and doesn't seem to have lost a beat. His linebacker corps is fast and tough. LeVeon Bell is out of his mind. Theyre just slightly more prepped than you give them credit for and they do it by finishing first or second in their division almost every year. Lastly I wouldn't trust this franchise if we had been given Andrew Luck. We would have ruined it. I'm not even kidding. agreed. BUT Tomlin appears to be a solid coach. His players talk about him as a NOTHING but a win is acceptable coach. I cant help but think if we drafted Big Ben for example, he wouldnt be the QB he is. Parading Herm and Mangini around? Who knows but great players need great management to develop players around them. We have neither..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy will be a Hall of Famer. Maybe not 1st ballot but he will be in Canton before its all over. awesome job on those drives(one where a ball stuck to a helmet moments after throwing a ball that should have been an easy INT to seal the game) but those are just 2 games, HOF is based on career not if you win a SB. SBs can help if you are a borderline candidate it can push you over the top but he's not a borderline candidate. they let plenty of undeserving players in but they can't let a mediocre QB like Eli in. we saw last week what happens to him when his D doesn't completely shut down an opponent and force a million TOs for him.

Namath because of Weeb and Brady because we gave him his chance to start and the. sucked balls for the last 20 years. and namath may be the most overrated QB in the history of the game. it was mostly injury related but his career overall was mediocre at best.

He never misses a game and will play into his 40s. His compiled stats over 20 years plus 2 super bowl rings will get him in the Hall easily. He absolutely is a compiler but the HOF is about greatness, Eli was never great for more than a game here or there. one week he could look like a HOFer and the next he looks like a an undrafted rookie. the HOF is about sustained greatness, you still have bad games here and there maybe even bad seasons every once in a while but overall you need to be great annually which is something he is not and never has been. he's a modern day Jim Plunkett.

For once we need to go out and get the #1 overall and pray that there is a franchise QB out there to be had. We have been down that other road and we KNOW where it leads. Exactly...

Just because the team isn't building up the offensive line to help luck is not luck's fault... that is just a bad GM...

I can see having this discussion at the end of a season when things are going wrong. For instance from the bye (or maybe as far as the Cards game) onward this past year. The season is already lost and you should see what you have in your young kids rather than scrapping to get every last win when it will only hurt draft position. Tanking from before the draft? Among the dumbest ideas I have heard. Some of us have been down this road. Twice. In a row. It didn't solve sh*t. If you do not believe there is any difference between the #1 or #2 overall and #5 to #8 then yes we have been down that road. But we have never actually been down this road. Or at least not for 20 years. We know franchise QBs are to be had at the very top of the draft or realistically they are not to be had at all. More often not at all. If 2018 is a really banner year for QBs then we ought to be thinking in those terms and get one. Sorry if that offends. I have yet to hear another plan.

PepPep Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 On 1/18/2017 at 1:33 PM, #27TheDominator said: Trading and drafting good talent is not luck. Roethisberger went #11 overall. We draft that early all the time. Flacco went #18. Just look at the teams that have won the super bowl and how they obtained their QBs and you will see that drafting #1 overall is not as great as you are hyping it. Broncos won with a FA. NE with a 6th rounder, Seahawks a 3rd rounder, Ravens #18 overall, Giants #1 overall obtained through trade, GB #24 overall, Saints FA, Steelers #11 overall, Colts #1 overall, TB FA 9th rounder, Ravens FA #6 overall, Rams UDFA, Broncos #1 overall acquired via trade. We are getting to ancient history near the end there, but it is both more fun and more sensible to hope for proper management than to suck for draft position. Hell, Parcells supposedly wanted Mirer over Bledsoe and the Colts agonized over Manning vs. Leaf. Brains beat luck damn near every time. Other consensus #1 QBs, Sam Bradford, Matt Stafford, JaMarcus Russell, David Carr, Tim Couch, etc, etc. Even the once in a generation guys don't always pan out - I'm looking at you Jeff George. The Colts have lucked into 3 of the all-time greatest prospects and have won exactly one super bowl during that era. Whoo-dee-damn-doo. THIS! It's not about having the top pick (ALTHOUGH THAT HELPS). It's about drafting well, developing players and signing the right players. Putting together a good team- PERIOD. This is VERY hard to do and involves THE WHOLE TEAM doing the right thing and making tough decisions. From the players to management to coaching to ownership. Tanking and getting the top pick in 2018 will, indeed, get us the top QB prospect (Darnold?) but that does not mean we will win anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
