Again, this is all skewed by one great playoff run. You can repackage it any way you like, but that fact remains. Flacco was a decent quarterback...
I reject your premise. We don't know that nobody else wanted him. They got him on a relatively team-friendly deal, but it wasn't nothing.
The contract isn't relevant. He would only be an option if he was released by the Titans. Highsmith developed faster, but that comparison also...
I like the idea, but I'm not so sure. Trubisky did work with Daboll in Buffalo, so he had some of that magic pixie dust on him, but that didn't...
Dupree had two dominant seasons, though the second was cut short by a torn ACL. I understand the problems some have with the guy, but let's at...
Why would Highsmith have to take a back seat? Backup outside linebackers do get snaps in the Steelers' defense. That would have to be Dupree's...
The Seahawks lost that game because their coach got cute rather than giving Lynch the ball on the one-yard line. It wasn't the defense. It wasn't...
Exactly. You can easily argue that Hurts did more in that Super Bowl than Mahomes. That game was decided by the offensive lines more than...
That Goff became a quality quarterback two years after the Rams gave up on him does not change the fact that he was far from a superstar...
No, your argument had been that a team has to have a superstar quarterback to have a shot at winning the Super Bowl. Now you are changing your...
That wouldn't be a bad idea if he's interested. He certainly got the most out of Pickett at Pitt.
Yup. They gave him a three-year deal before last season.
That's the real disconnect in these quarterback discussions. Half of the board thinks they should have refused to spend a first-round draft pick...
I get that. I'm just not sure the savings will be as much as some people think, though that depends on who they go after to be the backup.
Don't forget inside linebacker. I don't see one they would take at No. 17, but they could with one of their second-round picks.
Really, it's more like three or four million, because they are going to need another veteran backup if they cut Trubisky loose.
Rudolph is gone. Trubisky has over $8 million reasons to stay.
Trubisky had shown the ability to be a competent NFL quarterback. Rudolph had not. It's not so much that Trubisky was a good gap quarterback as it...
I'm bringing up two games as examples, not all of the evidence. The 49ers also got to that Super Bowl with a mediocre quarterback. The Rams did...
They weren't superstar quarterbacks. They were guys who stepped up in big moments. Flacco had some stinkers in the playoffs, too. In his first...
