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.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
