It was a shell of Peyton Manning behind the leagues best defense.

Yes - let's build our team around a dominant defense in a throwback to the 1980s NFL and hope that gives us a better chance to win a SB than drafting a franchise QB who is willing and can actually throw down field.

Or we could draft a flashy QB and not build around him for nearly a decade and use up his best years being mediocre as a unit.

Blame it on Rivera and Hurney.  Rhule deserves to have his own flashy QB to build around.

It would be nice. 90% of teams don’t have the luxury of having a fantastic defense, decent coaching staff, and a HOF QB with the right pieces to fit around him.

I put most of the blame on Shula. His offense put the entire burden on Cam. Cam was our #1 rushing option (particularly in short yardage situations) as well as being the QB in a passing offense that was almost exclusively slow developing downfield routes that naturally led to the QB taking a lot of hits. We were truly burning both ends of the candle in terms of the wear and tear on Cam.

Panthers win that game if Shula does even a decent job of calling plays. He literally made 0 adjustments and put in nothing new. The Denver defensive players said as much.

Fair. Norv never really got to use a healthy Cam after the shoulder injury. He was already diminished we just couldn’t admit it

      Snow in the high country

      By rayzor · Posted

      yeah. winter backpacking trips were the most miserable and amazing experiences. same with the coldest and snowiest hunting  experiences. i love being in it. makes for incredible memories. the worse it was, the more i ended up loving it. made the greatest memories.  i just want to get out of it afterwards.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.

      Snow in the high country

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
