Way too much talent to tank.

 

We had an elite defense 3 years ago and were close to being special. We still have that D Line, and shady.

 

Tanking is severely overrated... look how good luck and the colts are. They have nothing but a QB. And suck

 

We have pretty much everything but a QB and are close

To be fair, part of the assumption is that the GM and ownership arent part of the suck in any tank discussion. I'm pretty sure there are posters on this board better than leaders in the colts front office.

First thing they did was change the run game, only thing that worked last year.

Then they get rid of Gilmore and draft a CB with McD's 1st pick.

Then dump Sammy, and have Tyrod play like Big Ben.

All they had to do was take Schwartz's defense of pass rush man press, and Roman's offense of Tyrod running and throwing deep. It was given to them, but they junked it.

They're stockpiling picks, waiting for Brady and Big Ben to retire. They'll keep stockpiling picks until they get their guy behind center. Then 2 years to groom him and year 3 they get their Julio Jones.

No sense of urgency, and only know how to play football one way. The only guarantee is that the Bills have McD for 2 years good or bad.

Oh also, McD still hasn't fixed the penalties.

They were 11-5 his first 3 years, Luck nor any other QB can do it alone. That is why they fired Grigson because he totally flopped at drafting/acquiring talent.

but they didnt get rid of all their players for the tank, they just started curtis painter(i think) at qb

A better analogy is McBean is the bulldozer and the Bills are the old house. Instead of bulldozing half the house, they need to bulldoze it all and light a match to the remaining wood.

 

Stop bs'ing around and go for 1-15.

 

I disagree, I just think we need to switch out current players for drafted players while keeping the nucleus in tact. At QB I see us drafting one next season, Shady is 29 years old so he can be phased out when he can no longer play at a high level. Eric Wood, John Miller could be replaced and Incognito is on the wrong side of 30. I like the duo of Matthews/Jones at WR but we need to draft a deep threat also. All of our LB need to be replaced although I like this Matt Milano kid, he's not athletic but he's very instinctive so we'll see what we have there. If we can get that QB we should fix the OL ASAP so the new QB doesn't get killed but were not far off.

The Colts don't suck. They had problems the last two years with Luck getting injured. They went 33-15 his first 3 years and won playoff games. Last two years even with injury 8-8. That's not sucking.

Obviously I'd take luck in a second.

 

The point is a Good QB doesn't automatically make you a winner.

 

It still takes a team

but the way the league and the rules are structured, not having one pretty much automatically makes you ineligible for the playoffs
