We appreciate you bringing up Brady. It just helps to reaffirm our thought process, on building a team first. Then put a talented QB in a position to win.
Kurt Warner, Mark Rypien, Jeff Hostetler, Doug Williams, Nick Foles, Phil Simms, Jim Plunkett, Brad Johnson, Trent Dilfer, and yes even TB all won SBs because of the team. Especially, early in TBs career.
Hell, these other guys also led their teams to the big game; Neil O'Donnell, Chris Chandler, Stan Humphries, David Woodley, Jake Delhomme, Rich Gannon, Kerry Collins, Rex Grossman...so on and so forth.
Not calling you out specifically, Nate, just using your post as a reference point. When a QB is playing with other HOF players, they usually do pretty well. Unfortunately, we don't have many of those here.
*Foles is an exception to the rule, but his victory over NE in SB LII epitomizes a "team" win.
Well, this may be all true Coach but it doesn't look like we have a choice. We have to Draft Burrow and build the team around him.
Sure hope the FO goes out and gives him some nice pieces on the OL in FA first of course.
