Pioli's best move?
Letting Orton walk and bringing in "competition" named Brady Quinn for Matt Cassel! Thanks, Scott!! |

Yep. We might look back on all of this and decide that Pioli was the biggest blessing in disguise if Geno lives up to his potential.

So with the narrative of "Pioli hasn't brought in any great players" I wanna ask, with who we have on board as our core, did he really need too?
Charles Bowe Albert DJ Hali Houston Flowers Berry Winston Poe (who I'm higher on probably than most) Moeaki Breaston Thats your core, with all pro type guys there. Exactly how many do you need? I think we tend to downplay just how much the QB position and coaching have affected this team. |

Oakland is clearly better.
Mostly because Janikowski is better than Succop. Field goals. **** yeah! |

Lets go group by group
OL: Winston and Albert are bookends. They are great tackles and young. Hudson played alright as a new C early until he was hurt. Allen and Asamoah have flashed but also struggled. This group is directly affected by QB play. |

Denver has more talent than we do. Mainly because they've drafted way better than we have, and have done better in FA. What position group of ours would you rather have than Denvers? Running back. I'll wait for the rest, though there really shouldn't be any if you're being honest. |

This Denver conversation is just more proof about the mindset of our fanbase. Denver won 8 games with Tim ****ing Tebow as QB. While we've been drafting guys like Tyson Jackson, Poe, Arenas, McCluster, Moeaki and signing guys like Breaston and Hillis... ...Denver has been drafting guys like Von Miller, Demaryius Thomas, Erik Decker, Dumervil, Franklin, Beadles and Wolfe and signing guys like Tracy Porter, Dan Koppen, Justin Bannan, Chris Harris, etc. They've made good moves, while we've made poor moves. It shouldn't be a surprise that they are more talented than we are. Manning is just icing on the cake. |

Bannon? What has he done? He doesn't even have a sack. Jackson has better numbers |

So, no. I do not care to trade if I don't have Peyton Manning or some other elite QB. |

What's the difference between a talented core of players and a group of talented players?
Just curious. Is there a number? Just trying to get everyone's interpretation of the two. |

When I say "core" I mean talent at key positions, ones that, while not as important as QB, are essential to fielding a championship team.

They are infinitely more talented than us at WR and QB. Defensively, I'd take Von over anybody but our LB group is just as good as theirs is. Flowers and Berry are considerably younger than Champ, so I'm going to take those two guys over their secondary. Our DL is in disarray but we definitely have talent. Offensive line? Meh Meh Meh...I can't judge a Peyton Manning offensive line. He makes his lines look WAY, WAY, WAY better than they really are...elite or not elite. Let me put it this way. You put John Fox and Peyton Manning in KC and Romeo Crennel and Matt Cassel in Denver... ... I'm thinking KC 12-4 Denver 3-13 SO MAYBE Denver, outside of the QB position, has 1 more win worth of talent than KC. |
