Petro's back on the "drafting a QB is going to fail" rant
 

Basically saying again that the Chiefs should draft a 1st-round QB even though though history says it won't work.

29 QBs have won a Super Bowl.

13 QBs won it with the team that drafted them. He's not counting Elway or Eli Manning.

He's not counting them? Why?

Because they won their Super Bowls with a team other than the one that drafted them.

To be fair, he went on to say that the Broncos and Giants deserve major credit for being bold enough to make those trades.

Probably because both were drafted by other teams and then traded?

8 of the 29 Super Bowl winning QBs were taken with the 1st overall pick.

Because they were drafted and immediately traded to another team. They played their rookie seasons for the team they won the SB with.

He's right.

Look, the odds are pretty decent that the guy we draft doesn't take us to a championship. In fact, there's a good chance that the guy we draft never amounts to more than an average QB.

Who gives a shit?

That's backwards thinking. You don't win games by 'winning' drafts or by having the least busted draft picks.

You have to have a decent quarterback to win in this league - you just do. So regardless of the fact that your attempts at getting one will likely end in failure with some frequency, you still have to try to get one.

And if it doesn't work - you try again.

You don't build a team around what's easy to acquire.

Ok, I guess technically he is correct but they were still 1st round QBs.

There is another layer here too; look at the number of 1st round QBs that took thier team to a SB, Jim Kelly for example.

Useless ****ing douche. Can not stand Pisshole.

What's the history of the Chiefs for not drafting one in the last 29 years ?!?!?!? Hmmmmm :hmmm:

he's clueless about building teams...hopelessly so

How is that Bold? They were like the best QB prospects ever, a blind monkey could have made those deals.

All Playoff games won were by HOF'er Joe Montana? I could be wrong.

Well, he just went in an unexpected direction.

He's now suggesting the Chiefs should do whatever it takes to trade into the 1st overall pick.

Talked about whether the Dolphins would rather have Matt Ryan or Jake Long. Saying Pioli should have to spend a full day every spring informing Clark about all of the QBs in the upcoming draft.

And then he's saying they should go get their guy and trade whatever it takes to get him.
