You guys preached for years about the difference a franchise QB could make and now that we're on the verge of getting one, you say that a QB won't make that big of a difference. |

Don't really give a shit about how much or how little talent there is on the team. Get a QB, THEN go bitch about how Kendrick Lewis isn't good enough. |

It's around 70% of the problem I would say if you don't have a franchise QB in this era of the NFL. That would not have been the case in the 90s. It's the case now, however. |
Our running game is exceptional and our pass protection proved that behind Orton, they are fine. Our passing game improves behind a new QB and we need one more passing target (at least). And we need an offensive coordinator with an imagination.
Our defense, our pass rushers are outstanding, are ILBs are good enough, and Poe should hopefully continue to improve. Our secondary needs 1 or 2 pieces -- doesn't need to be pro bowlers, but improvements are necessary. Our DEs need to improve, but that's not a critical position. So essentially you're talking about a franchise QB, #2 receiver, a coaching overhaul, 1 or 2 pieces in the secondary, and hopeful improvements on DE (but not going to kill us if not. A good front office can easily accomplish that in one offseason, given our draft position and cap space. Particularly since a franchise QB and coaching overhaul are almost certainties. |

Do you know how much crap homers on this site have spewed about things like: Jon Baldwin vs Demaryius Thomas Tony Moeaki vs ANY tight end drafted in recent memory. Dexter McCluster vs Players Who Actually Make Plays Brady Quinn vs Legit NFL QBs Tyson Jackson vs Any Asshole With A Helmet Stanford Routt vs Corners Who Aren't Burn Victims There is precious little talent on this roster to "undervalue." |

We need 6 or 7 new starters. QB WR LDE RDE ILB CB S And we need massive improvement from current starters at: LG NT TE That's not an easy fix. We need two offseasons, IMO, before we talk about serious playoff contention. Next season, if Geno is drafted and plays at a solid level I think we can go 8-8 or so. No better. The roster needs work. |

The problem is that good GMs build around playmakers at core positions and Pioli decided to lay up every chance he got. That's ridiculous for a GM paid the way he is to not do that for 4 years. So the good news is, the foundation is set -- good support players, great cap space. We just need a GM now who can put together a few great drafts and make some quality free agency moves. Not as far off as people think. We're in a much better situation than a lot of new GMs walk into. |
