Letting other's fight your battles for you. I see.
George also went 4-12 that season. Yep, that's a great season.
He was 8-2 as a starter with Minnesota. And he almost put up And his QB rating was higher in Minnesota. Might want to check that stat sheet a little harder.
Ah, good one. I was trying to think of all the huge WR combo's and I knew there was some out there I couldn't remember. That would count. Herman Moore was awesome.
A couple other great combo's that come to mind-
Montana - Rice - Taylor - (and Roger Craig and Tom Rathman, yikes!)
Warren...
There have been great WR/QB combos, and that's one of them. But there hasn't been one with the kind of size and power that Jeffery and Marshall will bring. Both of those guys are monsters and Jeffery has unbelievable hands and body control.
Throw in 6'7 Kellen Davis, and we basically have a...
Me too. I've wanted him here for 2 years! LOL I figured we'd have no chance at him because I wanted him so bad. I can't believe it came true.
Cutler, Marshall and Jeffery are going to be like nothing the NFL has ever seen!
Not sure if that's being sarcastic or not. But that one sentence you typed about Lovie getting one free pick is not the same as what I said in the original post.
:lol:
You can find good interior OL prospects in rounds 3 and 4. A lot of starters come out of there, sometimes rookie starters. And every position on our OL can stand to be upgraded. Even Carimi is still a question mark as he only played 1 game.
Just another draft without any OL taken.
I hope you're right. But that was still a JA style draft and JA is gone now. Hope springs eternal with a new GM so maybe those players will turn out to be good.
We'll see how it plays out.
Exactly. And that exposes the problem that I see.
Look at the drafts over the years. Look at HOW MANY defensive backs and defensive line has been taken IN EACH DRAFT. And we still have a god awful secondary!! And D-line is still a huge need!! Without Peppers our D-line is pathetic, and we...
True. They also need better players on the O-line.
They took 3 DB's and zero OL. Again.
I think they've gone 4 drafts now since Lovie has been here without taking a single offensive lineman. Yet they take multiple DB's seemingly every year.
And they still need DB help? How is that possible?
Another draft, a first round DE, and 2 DB's taken. No Offensive Line taken. Again. JA left but this was still the same style of draft. DB's and DL. Since Lovie has been coach they have drafted a safety EVERY SINGLE YEAR.
So how much pull does Lovie actually have back there? I think a...
