You don't get to - or win - a Super Bowl with just a QB.
The problem is that this fanbase automatically undervalues players on other teams, while overvaluing our players. You need a complete team - including a QB. And even then, sometimes it's not enough. Could Geno Smith come in next year and lead us to 8 or 9 wins? Maybe. But unless the new GM starts hitting on some draft picks and making some smart FA signings, 8-9 wins and the occasional one-and-done in the playoffs is the ceiling. |

and this is the point I've been saying for YEARS in regard to the great Brady/Manning debate. YEARS. I'm glad to see people are starting to understand. AND, again, we get grossly outcoached every game. Defense alone we have Johnson, Hali, Houston, Flowers and Berry with guys like Poe who have potential and guys like Arenas who are serviceable. You can't have an all-star at every position you need coaching to come up with schemes to put the 'average to system' players in position to succeed. We do not have that luxury. Denver has a QB that consistently sustains LONG drives and puts them in the lead so they can play to their defensive strengths (get after the passer)...we don't. Peyton Manning makes that solid defense with great playmakers ELITE and PETRIFYING. We have Houston and Hali. If Peyton Manning were our QB he'd enable them to be ELITE and PETRIFYING. I don't think you understand HOW MUCH Peyton Manning does for that team...offense and...and...ESPECIALLY defense. |

Someone who is good with that PFF stuff could put all of our players or position groups against other teams and probably get a more accurate measure of where our "team" stands as far as talent goes.

Sorry, but that's BS.
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."

Examples of undervalued players? Lay them on me.
