Marcell Dareus on First Take

Recommended Posts

Because if we don't take a QB at #1, we're not going to change QBs at all, right?

Seriously, guys :rolleyes:

Haha. Very true. And for all we know, teh Jimmy can win that camp battle and upgrade to game manager. If we don't take a QB first, it doesn't automatically condemn our offense. It's not like any of these QB's are going to start from day one and become an effective signal caller their rookie season, especially if this lockout eats away training camp and OTA's and rookie mini camps etc.

Super duper! Our defense will be air tight. No one will score more than 10 points on us.

Too bad we'll still lose, as we can only score 3, or sometimes 7.

For everyone who continues to cry offense offense offense...

Our offense was regularly one of the bottom offenses in the league under Fox.

2010 - 12.2 ppg

2009 - 19.7

2008 - 25.9

2007 - 16.7

2006 - 16.9

2005 - 24.4

2004 - 22.2

2003 - 20.3

2002 - 16.1

(source NFL.com)

Much of our problems on offense can be directly attributed to the lack of creativity and game planning by Fox and Co. Our overall average with him is 19.4ppg. Offense is clearly not his strength.

We have a great OL, a great stable of RBs. We have some decent, young receivers, and an a bunch of unknowns at QB. Further, the general consensus is that we need a vet QB regardless of if we take a QB at #1. It's very likely that our offense will be much better, with the same personnel, because of our coaching turnover. We won't suddenly turn into the Packers, but you can be damn sure we won't be held to 12.2ppg.

    • Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack
    • Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.
    • Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
