Out of excuses

Why are you making stuff up??
Can You not make a point without doing that. I like You Knox, but wow.
I can make a list of players that are better here than they were before they got here, and a list of players who were worse after they left, to everyone you actually say. Hell I could just use last year for this.

 

Yeah whatever you say. Nope, if You speak, so shall I.

 

Ok so the trend is Mahomes wins a lot of SBs, the Eagles , and the 49ers like to go to a lot of SBs, the Ravens, and the Bill and Lions always look like SB contender, until they aren't......so everyone stop trying, because that is the trend, and nothing else can happen. Do I understand that right???

 

You brought up regular season stats. So You would have told our HOF, two time winning SB champion to kick rocks , for a Qb that has won nothing outside of the regular season????
Hell I know You would, I can clearly remember You saying you'd take Dak Prescott over him those last years.....how's that looking now???

 

Everything in the world is not binary. It's not about winning or stopping. It's about when there's little progress to the goal then you make changes. Players, coaches..it's all on the table. Philly has turned over the entire coaching staff in the last few years. Ravens have had multiple DCs and OCs. Reid runs the show in KC but has an excellent coaching staff.

 

You can’t win a SB if you can’t win playoff games

It’s really that simple

The Steelers can’t win a playoff game

 

Now Knox wants traded

WTF

 

Progress would be nice

I think that is what most of us are looking for

 

Ben was still pretty good back then so I can't fault them for not taking a QB in the first round. If Baltimore was so sure of Lamar, they would've drafted him with their earlier first round pick instead of that TE that year.

 

Bingo! Give this man a Beer.

 

He's already had too many.

 

Hey

I want the beer

 

You can't win a playoff game if You can't get there, it's really that simple, and You don't stack playoff wins , and then make a SB, someone that has watched as long as you have knows this.
You can go one year , and not win a playoff game, and go back the next year, and make the SB. You can also go to the AFC, or NFC championship back to back years, and still never make the SB, but You already know this.
Hell You can go to the SB 4 times straight, and not win one. If the playoffs were a stepping stone this rendition of the Ravens, and the Bills would have been in the SB already, as the Lion, and Green Bay. Hell some teams like Green Bay after they won the SB, they have won at least one playoff game every year for 10 years straight, and never again made the SB . There is no magical way. First, and foremost, You must make the playoffs, after that, anything can , and has happened.

 

Why are you allowing it to be personal??
What did I say personal???
You did say that you would trade Ben for Dak Prescott, we had a big discussion over it. Would You still??? I don't think so....What I'm try to point out is not to make hasty decisions. What if Lamar Jackson never makes a SB, would it have then been worth it to kick our two time SB champion Qb to the curb two years early, and then for what, regular season stats. Yes Lamar is good in the regular season, which I've been told just on this one thread, multiple times means nothing.....so if it means nothing why should it for Lamar Jackson....in the playoffs he's barely average???
Also don't brag about a running Qb winning a SB, not even 5 running Qbs, because compared to the rest, thats an outlier, and I did say many , many times that eventually the more running Qbs you got in the NFL, they would eventually win one, I've said it many times.

 

I was just using it as a reason not to make hasty judgments, You just take what I say too personally. If We had traded for instance Ben away for Dak(yes I know it didn't happen, but that's what our discussion was back then) we would have gotten nothing out of it , except pay a Qb a lot of money. Again I only brought it up to show why people shouldn't make hasty decisions....nothing more, nothing less. I'm not trying to hurt anyone's feelings. Also....I don't like the way Green Bay does it, I believe they got lucky once. If this Qb never takes them to a SB, was it worth it, they may could have drafted a player of need , and helped Rodgers get to another SB???? We don't know. Yes it worked for The Farve, Rogers scenario, but it's too early to say it's worked this time.

 

You’re right anything can happen once you make the playoffs. Like getting beat by 20 plus in the WC round year after year after year….

 

And on a non bye week 62.5% of the games are played on a Sunday

 

And in other news the world is round.
