If we don't starting learning how to defy history we'll never have a franchise QB and will only win one more playoff game over the next 40 years.
Defying history is EXACTLY what we're looking for...

On the other hand, you can take the history of EVERY team and EVERY coach over the course of nearly a century - that's a sample size in the thousands - and not find a single coach that has won a championship with 2 different teams. They're not even close to the same idea. What you want is not defying history, it's simply changing behavior. Last edited by htismaqe; 11-20-2012 at 07:53 AM.. |

Bad teams with franchise QB's have knocked us out of the playoffs every year going back to 94... Quote:
30 years is too small a sample size?... Quote:
Won an AFCC game (Patriots.) That's two champ games in two different conferences. Then took the Jets to the AFCC game. At this hour I'm not sure about the chronological order there but you get the point...

And I'm sure Patriot and Jets fans were perfectly happy with Parcells NOT winning a Super Bowl there. Our goal isn't to make it to an AFC Championship game. Hell, Marty did that. Let's bring him back. |

And we don't get to draft or sign a new one of those... Quote:
This team is a joke on the level of the Lions, Browns, or Seahawks. We need a HC with lofty goals and practical applications...

The current owner learned everything he knows about football from the former owner. There's no clean break in philosophy there - at least not yet.
The point is that what we've done in the past is not a historical trend. There aren't enough data points. If you want to discuss what we've done in relativity to the rest of the league, when it comes to drafting and developing QBs, then we can talk about historical trends. This team constitutes one large, 30-year data point in that analysis and it's not flattering for sure. In same ways I understand that mindset and that's fine for the fans. However, in the end, the goal is to win it all. |
