There is when you have mediocre talent at the skill positions, especially QB. Hell, if the recent Super Bowl teams are any indication, you really don't need a dominant LT if you have an elite or near-elite quarterback.
Bryant McKinnie, Matt Light, Chad Clifton, Trai Essex, Jermaine Bushrod, etc... basically a collection of worn-down vets on their last legs, backups pushed into the starting role, and prospects who hadn't panned out yet. Yet they didn't stop their teams from at least getting to, and possibly winning, the Super Bowl, because those teams had legit quarterbacks and were stacked with talent at the skill positions.

I don't know if there really is such a thing as an average QB. The middle of the road? Playoffs but no victory?
It seems to me that "below average" for a QB is synonymous with "absolutely terrible." "Above average" is synonymous with "franchise QB." Average is basically one or two guys that could break out but haven't. A la Matt Ryan or Sam Bradford. |

Take your pick. The results are the same.
I love Trent as much as anyone, but he had the best OL this team has ever seen in front of him and the best RB at his side. Not to mention that was when Tony was in his prime. You CAN'T argue that he would have looked anywhere near as good as he did if he had the OL not been as good as it was. |

Also the way that Miami structured his contract, he would have been seeing far less in guaranteed $$$ as it was filled with incentives and clauses. Ireland then had the nerve to trade his 1st 2nd (#42) and they've yet to solidify a real guy at the LT spot. Even though its not even the same guys in the front office, there's been some acrimony between the Dolphins and Chiefs and specifically about compensation and trade deals for a # of years. Just not a lot of professionalism on display and Ireland isn't known around the league in the most positive light - or at least tends to mistake where that line between shrewd business negotiator and dull-witted **** lies.

Hali had one great season. But the majority of his years have been average to below average. I used Hali b/c I see Jordan as Hali, maybe a little better, possibly quite a bit worse. I certainly wouldn't consider Hali a #1 overall pick pass rusher.

Trent Green was able to take advantage of superior protection to post league-leading passing numbers.
Alex Smith takes advantage of superior protection to...get sacked a lot...and dink and dunk. Stop comparing the two. Thanks.
