Week 10 - Broncos: Jonathan Gannon vs. Teddy Bridgewater

[MDS]

Quarterback is not the highest priority with this team.

thats not at all how it works...you always need a franchise qb until you dont. hurts might get better but his ceiling is limited and he never ever going to be a top 10 qb, let alone top 20.

can you win in the short term with a mediocre qb? sure. there are a bunch of recent examples of teams winning super bowls with mediocre qbs...then immediately falling apart. look no further than your eagles. but this aint the way anyone builds it and howie/lurie want a qb more than you want cheap mexican labor.

The odds of getting a top tier franchise QB are astronomical. Plenty of teams have won Super Bowls with middle of the road guys including ours. 

Building a truly great supporting cast is more of a plausible scenario.

Having guys in charge of selecting them and coaching them is also just as important, btw.

Conversely, Detroit had a legit Franchise QB and didn't do dick for a decade.

joe flacco was a t2 qb until he fell off a cliff...im assuming youre referring to him and not lamar. and stafford is firmly in tier 2 as well. hes never been mvp level talented.

hurts is not nearly as good as flacco was at his peak.
