Quote:So you're suggesting sucking for a long time to stockpile draft picks as the alternative strategy?

If Bortles is good and the offense is able to consistently generate a lot of points, what is the point of focusing on a big run-stopping defense if the opposing team is forced to pass anyway? The mentality of building a team around not being able to score has to go.

I didn't suggest anything. I'm just explaining to you how and why SF and SEA got so good. You don't suck as a strategy, but if you "build through the draft" that is basically how your team gets really good. If your are bad for long enough, eventually you get more talented.

You build your offense to score points. You build your defense to be good at more than one thing. You don't want to get in a situation where you have a glaring weakness. The goal should be to be balanced on both sides of the ball.

This is the NFL. You will rarely have a situation where Bortles is blowing teams out. Especially in the playoffs where everybody is good. What good will a defense "built to play with the lead" do when its a 3 point ball game or its tied in the 4th qtr?
