WAIT I KNOW WHY WE SUCKED for a Decade (and why 2017 wasn’t sustained)

The main issue has been their failures at the Quarterback position. It's that simple. You can get away with not having slam dunks and hitting grand slams in every draft as long as you have your Quarterback.

Let's just face it. Since they traded Mark Brunell to the Washington Redskins in 2004 this team has lacked an identity on offense in the passing game and they've tried like hell to mask it with a running game over the years. Leftwich failed, Garrard was the band-aid. Garrard failed, Gabbert was the band-aid. Gabbert failed, Henne was the band-aid. Henne failed, Bortles was the band-aid.

Bortles failed, Foles was the band-aid. Foles has failed so far due to injury, Minshew has been the promising band-aid.

This franchise has been STARVING for a Quarterback for 15 years now. Green Bay went from Favre to Rodgers. Indianapolis went from Manning to Luck. New England's always had Brady for nearly 20 years now. San Diego went from Brees to Rivers while Brees moved a few states over east into Louisiana. Atlanta has had Matt Ryan. Pittsburgh has had Roethlisberger. New York had Manning for years and have transitioned over into Jones.

The list goes on and on. Whatever this next staff decides to do. It's pretty clear they have to get this Quarterback situation resolved, cemented & stabilized for long term sustainability.
