[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 838861, member: 10086"] We (GB decision makers) need to do a better learning from the past. 1. Retain 3 QBs whenever possible. Particularly in a case where there is little to zero drop off between #2-#3. It’s the most important position group and it impacts the game in event of injury by far the most of any position and it’s a group that takes months to have a full grip on the system. Other teams clearly understand this principle. 2. Keep the best talent on the field whenever possible. This also goes for the LB position. In 2014 we moved Clay inside and that enabled us to pull Nick Perry off the bench and pair him with Peppers. We immediately became a top 10 rushing Defense and dropped into 13th place as a scoring Defense. At the rate we improved, we learned that our biggest mistake was not doing this sooner. We went from 22nd ranked scoring to 13th overall in 1/2 of a season. We went from a #32nd ranked rushing D through 8 weeks (by far the absolute worst)...... .. ..to #4 ranked rushing D for the last 8 weeks. That was not an accident, that’s a drastic improvement. So much so, that I believe that in itself (and the direct result of it propelling us into the NFC Championship game) it saved MM and Dom Capers jobs for a few more seasons. I’d like to see our team do a better job learning from our past failures and success stories. I realize our memories tend to be forgetful, but how does an entire organization forget something that soon? They need to quit dilly dallying around with Burks and pony up the resources to acquire a decent LB. If Burks makes a full recovery great! We have better depth in 2019. [/QUOTE]
