Who is more important: QB or Head Coach?
 

Who is more important when it comes to winning in the NFL?

QB or Head Coach?


Poll coming.

QB

QB by a metric **** ton...

QB

Stupid thread. Obviously the most important people are the ones playing the ****ing game.

Depends.

2000 Ravens, 2006 Bears, 2002 Bucs all had poor QBs but had good teams.

Same thing applies for the Jets, I think..

QB. Take away Brady or take away BB? Take away Rogers or McCarthy? Ect ect.

QB for me, too.

Fullback

I think its obvious.

A great QB can make everyone on the team, including the coaching staff look great.

At best, a great head coach can make a bad QB look decent, but thats it.

Is jd1020 a raging douche or average douche?



Poll coming, in his anus.

Norv Turner is somehow still employed. That should answer your question.

That said, if you told me that we wouldn't be able to employ one of the top six to eight QB's in the NFL, then the head coach becomes more important. Because there are only a limited number of QB's in the league that make your team significantly better...

Umad?

The only coach in the modern era that would be equally important would be Mike Holmgren considering how many QBs he successfully developed.

Belichick says 'sup.

Touche.


I just talked to a roomful of Chiefs fans, and the answers were rather split.


I am surrounded by TrueFans!

Nah, just mellow and relaxing.

He has developed one.

They still succeeded without Brady in 2008.

hmm erm hmm. Brady

Holmgren developed Favre, Brunell, Hasselback, and Steve Young

So, whether we would have kept Haley or hire Crennel really doesn't matter..........

Q: What's more important for a healthy body? Your heart or your brain?

A: Brain.

So a healthy heart don't matter!

You got it sport! :spock:

QB IMHO.

So you are saying that he also developed Matt Cassel.

I think Peyton Manning illustrates how important both positions are.

With him, the Colts are contenders every year, but without a great HC, they fail most years.

Peyton got Jim Caldwell to the SB.

The way the game is played right now with the defenses on the defensive, QB play is much more important than in 2006 when mediocre HC got to the SB with a great defense.

Ask Bill Belichick, Mike Shanahan, Dick Vermeil, Mike Holmgren, Jimmy Johnson and Bill Cowher.

Ask Marty.

head coach chooses who the starting QB is.... it's a no-brainer

It all depends. Some QBs are great because the system the coach installs fits them like a glove. Some coaches look better because they have a QB that fits thier system like a glove.

ROFL ROFL

Think about some of the guys who have coached in Super Bowls over the last 15 years or so:

Barry Switzer, Mike Martz, Tony Dungy, Jim Caldwell, Bill Callahan, Brian Billick, Jim Fassel, and Ken Whisenhunt

Unless you are the chiefs. The GM decides here.
