I think everyone of those picks were lucky/risky except Peyton Manning, and Andrew Luck this last year. Guarantees don't come along very often.
But you can't get lucky and hit on a franchise QB like that if you don't try, and that has been this team's problem. 30 years without trying or taking a risk. They have preferred to trade away picks for a mediocre guarantee.
They needed to sell tickets, and build a 10-6 team to sell those tickets after the terrible 70s and 80s, and they did.
I noticed you haven't commented about the obvious burn out that Cowher had gone through. What do you think about that? Has he recovered?

Well, they are about to take a risk. Because we are drafting a Qb number 1 overall this year.
So then by your thought, our next HC will be "lucky" to win a SB because there isnt' a franchise QB sure thing in this draft?
