Comparing the Top Squads in today's NFL

I consider our defense to be trending in the elite direction.  So to compliment, I want to really see what the top teams have in the league.   The easy answer being Pat Mahomes or Tom Brady, but it's worth consideration. (I may miss some top guys, but you get the picture)

The notable cores:

Buffalo

QB-Josh Allen

*Tandem backfield

WR-Stefon Diggs

LT-Dion Dawkins

C-Mitch Morse

Cleveland

QB-Baker Mayfield

RB-Nick Chubb+Kareem Hunt *Tandem backfield

WR-...questionable

TE - Trio approach

OL-Bitonio+Tretter+Conklin+Wills

Chiefs

QB-Pat Mahomes

RB-Meh, might as well be committee

WR-Hill

TE-Kelce

OL- Brown+Thuney+Humphrey

TB

QB-Brady

RB-*Underperforming tandem backfield

WR-Evans & Godwin

TE-Gronk

OL- Wirfs & Smith

Arizona

QB-Kyler Murray

WR-The entire Group

SF

It's the OL, Deebo & Kittle

DAL

Overall balanced attack w/Dak, Elliott, Pollard, Lamb, & Cooper

So....

My takeaway: You either need a top flight QB, a top flight OL, or a good enough QB-Receiving w/a few top OL that makes the package click.  Some of these have top RB talent, but are any really workhorses? Who has the overworked RBs? Us, Minny, Titans (good team, awful D), Cinci, Saints...

Dallas has even adjusted and Pollard is getting more carries depending on the matchup. 

In light of the CMC discussion, it is worth considering how we prioritize the build that continues (and looking quite good at the moment regardless of injuries)

We're getting close.  And I don't think we're that off, and the next focus should be OL without question. Finally, after all these years.  OL OL OL OL OL

Rhule does not throw players under the bus and most of what he says is to motivate guys.

I do not believe anyone is satisfied with our OL.

Also it's within context. Like within the context of their capabilities they played well,not necessarily within the context of what's considered good o-line play haha.

Rhule said today,  the O line played good....... Help me understand.

You still believe anything Rhule says?  Are you nuts?  The guy is a serial liar.  And I don't hold it against him at all.  He says what he says to help his cause.  Not because he wants to let anyone know what's actually happening.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
