Different era of football. 

Last five SB winners: Rams (Running back by committee), Tampa (Running back by committee), KC (Running back by committee), New England (Running back by committee), Philly (Running back by committee).

I agree that you have to have a QB. Those last four winning QB's are Stafford (good to very good), Brady (most accomplished QB in history), Mahomes (possibly his heir apparent) and Nick Foles (not an all time great...but played out of his mind during that Eagle playoff run)

The running backs I listed Gale Sayers, Barry Sanders, OJ Simpson, Adrian Peterson, Eric Dickerson really didn't play with great QB's in their career and therefore they couldn't get to a SB. AP had Favre for one good season but lost the NFC title game to New Orleans. Your point is well taken. Great RB's cannot carry teams to a SB on their own.

But, you pair a great QB and good/great RB together, you can accomplish and awful lot.

3.We traded our 2023 3rd for Corral. We have picks in rounds 1,2,4 and 5.

 Kinda insane how we're going into next year with 4 draft picks, no cap space and Corral as the only QB on the roster. It's a tough sell for any new staff, unless it's with the understanding they're going to blow it up and go crazy on the rebuild in 2024

 

🤦‍♂️

What i see is great QB, great coach, good WRs and serviceable RBs.

Wouldn't you say a serviceable running back is  a good running back?

Before the season was extended from 16 to 17 games, a running back only had to average 62.5 yards per game to crack 1,000 yards. Now he only has to average 58.8 yards per game. A back (or set of backs) who can carry to ball 18-20 times per game and average over 4.0 yards per carry are  more than serviceable.

(or set of backs)

We can split hairs over serviceable versus good, but more than anything else, this is what I see (especially as a Fantasy player), a set of backs. To bring this back to the topic, we really don't need one all-world RB (CMC) and then basically nothing, which is what we've had this year. So I'm okay with trading CMC and getting a pass catching back cheap in FA or in the later rounds to go with Freeman and whoever we can replace Chuba with.

Since 2018 when he became the starter for us we have won a grand total of 17 games out of 69.   He doesnt move the needle like you think he does.

 

 

Football is a team game. Cam also lost a bunch of games for us since 2018 as well. I guess he didn't move the needle like you thought either if that is your criteria.

    • 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.
