Hindsight being 20/20? Sure.
In reality? Uh, NO? They didn't overreach for a qb, they got a qb that could "manage" or baby, or care take, the offense.
After all, philly, when they were at their best, with Brian Dawkins, Michael Lewis, Bobby taylor, Sheldon Brown, Troy Vincent, Jevon Kearse, were a defensive team, with a supplemental offense..
That is the type of team that went to 5 nfccg and one super bowl appearance.
When the packers won their super bowl, they had an opportunistic defense that made the clutch turnover, and despite finishing in the lower half of the league in yards, had the second highest turnover differential in the league.
They fortified what was already the strongest part of the team, while getting guys who could be competent ENOUGH to not drag the team down.
They are far smarter than anyone on this board.
