In football? Lol.

It's not as close as you might think.  No other team has a former MVP at the most important position and a DPOY, both entering their prime.

No other team has won 17 games in a season this decade, (less than two calendar years ago), the core of which is intact.

12 former 1st round picks (no other team even has 10), 5 former top 10 picks, 8 former top 15, 16 in the top 45.  Insane.

13 former Pro Bowlers, not including our young studs Bradberry, Norwell, Lotulelei, Thompson, and Benjamin.

Like I said, not nearly as close as anyone may think.

Fug the Bucs. There's still a major problem with their SB plans - they have Jameis at QB.

Coaches in Tampa must have wrote "cockblock Carolina" on a whiteboard somewhere this offseason

Easily the most talented 6-10 team ever.

I'd say top 3, at least

Meh, whatever. Would've loved to have had him but my Broncos fan buddies say that he fell off HARD last year.

You would know. That's all I need to hear 

[LinvilleGorge]

He was gonna lose his stsrting spot anyway and he makes way too much to be a backup.

Not signing Ward is almost worth watching the SAME huddlers melt down over not signing an overpriced FA.  You guys NEVER disappoint.

Need met opportunity in an unexpected way with Ward, but I won't belabor it.

The one that irks me most is not getting Calvin Pryor for an exchange of 6th/7ths- a cheap young guy with upside.

I don't know why everyone got excited. When have we ever signed a prized free agent....I don't even bother getting excited anymore

I was trying to remember any free agents we had ever signed after final cuts that fans really hoped for.

All I could come up with was Stephen hill even though there must be others....
