Still had nothing to do with the point about fan expectations and rebuilding. Sorry.
Wrong. I think the vast majority of the people, not just the "smart fans", realized that the Bears defense needed 'rebuilding' as opposed to a 'quick fix' when Fangio took over....as expressed in my posting.
Nothing Baba said was idiotic. It has already been pointed out to you that despite parity it is not a given that teams get good after 4 years drafting in the top 10. When it was pointed out the divisions don't show this to be true, your argument morphed into, "But those guys have HoF QBs" which is laughable.
Baba didn't post anything about divisions allegedly not showing this to be true, that was someone else. Fail.
And my point about the HOF QBs isn't "laughable", it's fact...with the irony being that two of the five teams pointed out as being dominating (Steelers, Packers) missed the postseason this year. The other teams listed as being dominant were the Saints, Patriots (low hanging fruit) and Colts. Here was my response...
Patriots = Brady
Colts = Manning
Steelers = Roethlisberger
Packers = Rodgers
I agree that if you focus on teams with the HOF QBs, then you'll find evidence that they are usually good. Doesn't really explain the recent histories of the Giants, Seahawks, Panthers, Broncos, Niners, Falcons, etc. Packers appear to be at the end of the line, done in by drafts that haven't restocked their roster. I like the reference to the Ravens...after winning the Super Bowl in 2012, they've made the postseason twice in the past 6 years (including this year).
It's like the CCS mantra with you, but I honestly don't know what you are "arguing". Are you arguing that I was mean to BaBaBlacksheep when I dealt with his snarky comments? Are you arguing that the NFL isn't designed to be a parity league? Are you arguing that drafting higher in each round is not advantageous?
