The way Seattle did it

#51

Quote:The Seahawks did a fantastic job of building their roster, finding great late round/UDFA gems, and getting Avril/Bennett on amazingly cheap FA deals (so cheap that Dwight Freeney called collusion even: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/06/02...75424.html )

 

However, if they don't find that outlier QB they won't win the Super Bowl. In fact, they tried multiple times and failed before they got super lucky with Wilson. They traded for Whitehurt, signed Tarvaris Jackson, and gave Matt Flynn a big FA deal. The idea that they 'built up the roster and then went for the QB' is patently false. They tried over and over and failed, got lucky, and then won the Super Bowl in short order after finding a franchise QB. Sometimes luck is just what it takes. 
 

I would amend this to state that no matter what approach you take, you're still going to need some luck.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!
