People keep saying "today's NFL" ..since the merger, when has it been smart to build around a RB?


Defense has always won championships, and still does. QB's are the single most important position, but a great defense is still king.

You cant play "great" defense anymore the rules dont allow it,its arena league football now youre no longer gonna see 2000 Ravnes defenses anymore its impossible

:what: You must be stuck in a time warp nikka that shyt dont fly no more teams are no longer winning like the 2000 Ravens you cant build your tema like that anymore the rules dont prohibit havign grea tdefneses and buildign aroudn a running game

The Seahawks, Jets and chiefs have great defenses this year. Stop with your rules excuse bullshyt, a lot of these teams flat out have trash defensive talent. Plus teams like ravens and 85 bears were rare.

And my point was, All the major dynasties combined a QB who didnt throw picks in the PS and a great pass defense

00's Pats
80's 49ers
70's steelers
90's cowboys

Winning in the PS has always been about not throwing picks and defending the pass. The chiefs have that right now

Show me the last team that won that way and dont tell me the Ravens, they didnt win till Flacco went apeshyt and their defense was not that good last year they gave up like 500 yards in the super bowl but still won because you cant play d in todays nfl
The giants defense won their super bowl.

Didnt know we were only talking sb winners either. San Fran and Seattle are both contenders and have built around a good rb and defense.

And the Hawks gave Lynch big money.

You can win with a running game as long as you aren't breaking the bank on one player. Niners never gave Gore an absurd contract.

Youre better of having two ok backs then paying a rb good money,Saints and Colts won super bowls havign the worst runnning games in the league

The Niners had a great running game and very good defense a few years ago but couldnt get to the super bowl because Smith couldnt make a play against the Giants

Ravens won last year when Flacco went crazy on deep passes,Rice was basically thrown in the bushes in the playoffs

You don't just trade away potential GOATS...

And all this talk about "building around a runningback"

The only reason we are doing that is because we have no QB... If you look at 2009 when we went to the NFC championship game, we were a heavy passing offense and having Adrian was just the icing on the cake.... Once we get a QB and fire musgrave, we wont be "building around Adrian"...

I'm not arguing against the passing game, I'm saying you can still build around a run game and win. I just don't think you should break the bank on one back.

You cant, the rules make it too easy for elite qb's or at least veyr good ones who can throw deep,building around a rb in todays nfl is comically dumb and archaic

But breh 2/3 of the league does not have an elite passing attack. For every Manning or Rodgers there are many Ponders, Palmers, etc... It's not EASY to find a QB even with how the rules have been changed.

I agree with Francessa. They need to trade him and get as many picks as possible. AP is great and all but they ain't winning big any time soon.

Nobody said it was easy the point is youre not winnnig without one,game manegrs arent winning in todays arena league nfl

if you dont have an eltie one you better at least have a good done who cant throw the shyt out of the ball downfield ala Flacco
