Mike Brown’s “Bell Cow Quarterback”

Mike Brown's "bell cow QB" (what a stupid term, amirite?) hasn't worked, because he and the people he hires are inept at finding a QB that has traits to help a team contend for a SB. His attempts in the '90 were just bad QBs. Carson had the body and arm talent but not the ability to make throws in the clutch, just like Dalton has the ability to put up some numbers in the regular season but can't do it in crunch time either. 

Turn on the Jets v Cowboys and see how a good, young QB makes a difference on an 0-4 Jets team, and then...someone, anyone, please try to come back and tell me how no one can win on this team. It's short-sighted, ignorant (you know, the literal definition, not the insult), lazy BS. 

This is not valid. You quote the jets and cowboys. Look at the trenches! The spent money in the trenches. Look at Dallas in the Romo era. Great playmakers and horrible trench play and they could not win. Look at New England. They always build the line to give Brady all day to throw. Name one successful team that has a bad line.
