Basically he needs almost everything around him perfect. That’s a tall order.

How about Baltimore or Seattle?

We also need to put an asterisk next to anything New England because of coaching. The schemes and play designs are league best. A lot of that was put on display yesterday with the Jets game.

(10-22-2019, 11:00 PM)fredtoast Wrote: Boyd is a WR while Kittle is a TE.

SF also has All pro LT Joe Staley and RB Matt Brieda who is leading all RBs in yards per carry (5.6) and is on pace to rush for over 1000 yards.

SFs #3 RB Tevin Coleman has almost as many yards (227) as Mixon (248)

Defense ranked 28th PF/31st Yds, 32nd PF/31st Yds, 31st PF/27th Yds. Elite QB and Hofer.Terrible example to make for Dalton

Aaron Rodgers was 10-12-1 over the last two seasons.

The year after winning his first Super Bowl Joe Montana was 3-6 as a starter.
'82: 2nd in yards, T1st in TDs, 5th rated QB that year. Defense ranked 23rd PF/21st Yds. 2nd only to the G.O.A.T. and HoFer. Terrible example to make for Dalton.

Brett Favre was 12-20 in '05-'06.
Terrible statistical years, tons of Ints and bad teams near the end of his career. He was 36 and 37 y/o those years. Legendary QB and HoFer. Terrible example to make for Dalton.

Matt Ryan was 18-30 from '13-'15.
'13: 4,500 yds, 12th rated QB. '14: 4,694 yds, 11th rated QB. '15: 4,591 yds, 20th rated QB. Defense ranked 27th PF/27th Yds, 27th PF/32nd Yds, 14th PF/16th Yds. #1OA pick, 5th in TDs and 10th in quarterback rating, since he came in the league among active QBs. Bad example to make for Dalton.

Philip Rivers only had 2 winning season in the six years from '11-'16 (42-54 record)

Ken Anderson was 13-26 the three seasons before he won his MVP in '81.

(10-23-2019, 01:05 AM)jason Wrote: Yep... They are the exceptions. I'd throw in GB too. The Patriots have the right players, a few studs, excellent coaching, and an all time great at QB. Aaron Rodgers is right up there with anyone to ever play the position. He's one of the few that have ever played QB that can truly carry a team. Russell Wilson might be the best player in the NFL right now. He's amazing. I'm not sure I'd consider Baltimore a great offense. They're pretty one dimensional. They're well coached, and do have some nice weapons though. SF has some pretty good RBs, Kittle, a great defense, and Kyle Shannahan is a great coach.

Baltimore has the #2 offense in the league right now in yds/game (434.9), and are only behind NE in points/game (30.6).

Too bad Belichick doesn't have you around to tell him tthat Brady does not need any other decent players around him. That dumbass just wasted a 2nd round pick trading for a WR.

One thing most of those teams do well though, aside from Seattle, is block pretty well. Weapons are nice, but if you can't win the battle up front, you're behind the gun. People talk up Wilson, but how bout that Watson guy? Man, he's shaping up to be one of the all time greats. Even though they lost, that performance in NO was something else.
