Vikings and Lions are both suspect passing defenses.

Also, not all defensive performances are equal.  Anyone with eyeballs knows that Seattle game was one of the toughest defensive tests of the year.

Ace using this as a defense is so lazy it borders on trolling except he’s not.

Nah Seattle has a weak secondary and were missing several players vs us. Ace is right.

These clowns thought their "point guard" could make below average weapons serviceable. It's the opposite. You need weapons to lift this type of QB up.

I’d argue all QBs need weapons. Tua did, Josh Allen did, Herbert walked into weapons. Who’s the QB that’s making it work without a star WR?

You need weapons to lift every QB up. Sure there’s flash in the pan seasons like Cam in 2015 but every consistently good QB has good to great weapons

Exactly. Who was the last QB that won anything without some very good WRs? Cam? Brady?

Don't disagree. The irony is that that was the kind of team the Huddle was looking before pre-draft trade, right? "Don't get a QB now", "we have too many holes", "build the team first and plug the rookie QB in later" were all common points. They overestimated their surrounding talent--that part is clear, but they honestly seemed to have thought they were at the "plug the rookie QB in" stage already. They clearly aren't there yet and Bryce is in a position at a point that he wasn't supposed to be. If he continues to improve despite all that, football people around the league will notice and his criticism will reduce.

They all do but I think Bryce probably needs a Tua or Purdy situation. Elite weapons all over the place with an offensive wunderkind Manning the play sheet. That's really hard to replicate.

And where would the Vikings and Lions be ranked if Dalton played them? Seattle would be higher if Bryce played in that loud ass environment and put up about half of what Dalton did

There is no way to know that. Dalton looked good one game. How did he play last year with the Saints?

    • I think his stats will depend on the development of the rookies and sophomore receivers, which isn't totally under is control. The eye test is a different story. Has to consistently look the part before you decide to pay him Purdy money. 
    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
