Quote:How am I reaching ? Same draft same year. Hasselbeck was on the decline and they traded for whitehurst. How would reaching for Manziel be any different than them picking Tebow?


Yes Thomas is one player but he is their deep safety and makes the field shorter like Ed Reed and makes everyone's life easier. CBs can press and not worry about being burnt. Kam can take care of the underneath without having two deep safety's . The rush doesn't have to get there as quick.


Yes one huge playmaker like Clowney could do that if he lives up to his potential. Bridgewater who I have 2nd could to but I dint have him over Clowney

"The 2013 Seahawks mirrored those 1985 Bears. Chicago was the last NFL defense to lead the league in fewest yards and fewest points allowed, as well as most takeaways. Monsters of the Midway, meet the Legion of Boom. The Seahawks defense shut out the Broncos for three quarters and forced four Denver turnovers."

 

So it took nearly 30 years for a defense like the Bears to win another SB? Hmmmm.... wonder why?
