I found this blurb interesting:
Said Whaley, “Defense, run the ball, because that’s the type of football that travels, especially late in the season in the northeast. And that’s playoff football, too. Because if you look at the stats of most of the playoff games, besides the Super Bowl when Tom Brady threw it 50 times, the Patriots were running the ball to get” to the Super Bowl. “Seattle, if you look at Russell Wilson’s stats, he very rarely throws it over 25 times a game because they’re playing great defense and running the ball well. He’ll make those three to four throws a game, those third-and-10s, that you need. And that’s all we need our quarterback to do this year.”
Many, including myself, still feel we need a true franchise QB before we can win a Super Bowl. But, others feel a guy that can simply do his job on a team that can run and plays great defense is all we need.
Can Manuel/Cassell/Taylor simply make 3 or 4 3rd and 10 throws a game and take us to the playoffs behind a great D and run game?
I don't think anyone feels we are all set at QB. But can we get to the playoffs with this team?
