Quote:You're right.   You need a QB to win in this league.   And yet, not one of the final 4 teams used a first round draft pick to acquire their QB.  

 

Seattle- Russell Wilson- 3rd round

Denver- Peyton Manning- free agent

San Francisco- Colin Kaepernick- 2nd round

New England- Tom Brady- 6th round

 

So it is possible to get a great QB without using a first round pick on one.   The final four teams have proven it.  

Its a team sport, all the focus on Manning.. he won the MVP 5 times because he's fantastic but what people forgot is that he won this years MVP because of how great that offense was mainly due to manning... if  a team found a way to rattle manning & take him out of the equation (which is almost unheard of) than the team's offense is shut down- which is what Seattle did...


I think that superbowl let people know that in football Defense wins games, especially with a strong running game that is balanced by QB whom doesnt turnover the ball....

 

We dont need to draft Teddy at #3 or higher to be on the right track we need a guy like Clowney to rush the QB, since our pass rush has been the leagues worst for several years ....
