Would you be ok with a Trent Dilfer, if you got the defense that came with him?

Just curious about the mood around here. Say we don't take a QB (because none of them will help in 2011 anyway). Instead we go defense, and end up with an amazing unit that threatens the 2000 Ravens 10 points per game mark. Clausen or some washed up veteran starts, and does a decent job as a game manager.

Bottom line though--we still suck on offense. But because our defense is awesome we win more than we lose.

Would you be happy with that?

Winning is all that matters so yes but it better not be Clausen, he will negate our great defense.

Well in your world Matt Moore beats him out anyway, so it will be a contest between his end-zone INTs and our defense's greatness, huh? :)

Winning SHOULD be all that matters, not who's the QB.

In order to win a Super Bowl with a QB like that the first thing you have to do is get to the playoffs.

Having Ryan, Freeman, and Brees in your conference all but guarantees we would never have that chance if we had a Dilfer like QB.

So no. The league has changed and more importantly, our conference has changed!!

But what if we have an amazing quarterback (Luck), and a horrible defense? We still win right?

Yes & no. Be great to have that kind of run on defense, but I want championshipS. Even that bitchin Ravens D didn't win multiple. Looking at the recent past multiple superbowl winners, they had franchise QBs. However, netting a superbowl victory either way would be sweet.

To be fair they were redzone INTs mostly ;)

3 straight passes after Moore got us down to the 3 yard line doesn't help him much either, let alone being in the shotgun all 3 plays leaving no threat of running the ball.

Either way, Moore put up 18 that game and with a great defense that would have been enough to win :D

What are you talking about Luck for?? Is he an amazing NFL QB already???

And if you have an amazing QB he can mask a lot of ills on the defensive side of the ball.

In this conference as it is instituted now... you would have a better chance of winning games with a great QB and sub par defense than a bad offense and good defense.

The QBs are too good now in the NFC South.

Go look at the playoffs last year and look at the minimum points scored by the winning teams and the points allowed by the winning teams. In a lot of cases teams won despite giving up 21+ points

      I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks.
