Not really. 3-4 key player additions and getting rid of a lot of what I consider waste would catapult us back in the hunt. With a different HC that is. Marvin just don't care anymore.

If there is a QB available that they feel could be a top 5 QB, then you take him. It is just so hard to find a good QB and so hard to win without one. I say all of this a an avid Dalton supporter. It is much easier to upgrade the line than it is to find a top QB and I feel like we could with a couple FAs and draft picks.
Totally with this line of thinking. This is our biggest need right now. We must focus on our weakness and get rid of our dead weight.

Personally would like OL fixed first. But hey if you can get an elite QB then grab him. They do not grow on trees.
This is tough for me because I think Dalton is pretty good with protection.

Amen. Take it to the mountain top and preach it to the masses!

I would say 100%

Thanks for the compliment.
Seriously, we have to put horse blinders on when it comes to this OL and change the way we think about them. The line is your military. They keep the bad guys from taking over your territory and kicking your kings ass! Yet, in Cincinnati, we consider them position fillers and not of much worth. Sad, very sad!

He didn't start last year?
