Build up the Dline, just like the Oline

The offensive line has become the strongest unit on the team. They have made the running game click and kept Bryce vertical.

The next step is building a dominant Dline. Use the draft and FA to add the pieces needed. That would make the biggest difference. A QB would be nice (Bryce has looked better, but still not close to being a game changer.)

Defiantly need to get the defense up to snuff. If Bryce keeps improving, he may get another season. They can't go another season with the defense being a weak link.

That's cool but just know we aren't winning anything until we solve the elephant in the room.

I feel like Jenkins was only really great in 02/03, he took a long time to get back in shape. He was supposedly pretty good his first season with the Jets. Having him and Moose in 05 would have been amazing. 

Yeah he might have been hurt 2004 but what a great player in his early Panthers years. He was a “dawg”. Another parting gift from Seifart.

It is football, still. You control the LOS, both sides, you win that game most of the time.

Jenkins, we took so long to replace him. Way too long. Gettleman won me over big with his first draft. 

But he is another story.

That has to be the priority and should be until have one. I think there are 2 who have a good chance, and the others are developmental--and I think there are some decent qbs to develop.  I think we need a 2-part plan--Sign a vet, draft a QB, and let Bryce compete.  None of this entitlement crap.

As for the OP, he is right--we need a DT, an edge or two.   I also think we need to draft a WR.

Not just the line but the front 7, wouldn't mind double dipping at edge or an edge LB combo in the 1st 2 rounds

This.

Adding Brown back in the mix next year will help a lot.  I actually think the “line” is fine.  We need to upgrade the entire ILB/OLB group.  Toss in a ball hawking safety and we’re in business.

    • I think we are looking at the same stats, I think you just have pro-Bryce goggles on.  That seems to be pretty clear by the post history, anyway.  Not really sure how or why anyone would still be in that camp, but carry on.
    • I would argue their play during their respective seasons was elite, and they elevated those around them.  Regardless of what they became after that moment.
    • Right team, wrong year and player. Since the 2003 season, there are only 2 SB winning QB's who won't end up in the HOF (Hurts not included as I think that's still up in the air), would be Flacco and Foles. The next worst QB to win in that time frame would be Eli, followed by Wilson, and then Big Ben. The other SB winning QB's since then... Brady, Mahomes, Stafford, Peyton, Rodgers, Brees... basically some of the best to ever play the game and Stafford, a surefire HOFer after winning his SB. You have to go back to the 2002 season to find a truly average QB to have won the SB with Brad Johnson and then 2 years before that with Dilfer.  Before that, you have to go all the way back to the 1991 season when the Redskins won, everyone else between there are HOFers.
