[QUOTE="FrankRizzo, post: 564293, member: 2232"] Well, yes if A) the defense steps up big time, somehow someway, B) Rodgers stays healthy A) Ted has hand-picked replacements at S (McMillian), ILB (Terrell Manning), OLB (Nick Perry), DE/DT (Worthy) who have simply done nothing. We've gone backwards because of those picks. Those are facts. I do applaud him for going with Peppers this year, no matter how that plays out. B) Rodgers stays healthy. Sure the Broncos, Saints, Patriots, Cows can all say that regarding their starting QBs. But this roster is not great. TT is not a great GM based on everything. Great, IMO, are teams like the Patriots who had a Super Bowl team in 2001 with Bledsoe, who went out injured, and the new guy came in and guided them to the Super Bowl win. Brady, the 6th round pick. Then they were so good that Matt Cassell started 15 games for them after Brady tore his ACL in the opening game, and Cassell went 10-5 as a starter. Those were great teams. Teams. Even the Bears last year did just as good with their journeyman backup QB McCown. We are Rodgers. Without Rodgers, well, we were not even in the same league as the Lions last year. We couldn't even beat the Vikings in Green Bay. Without Rodgers, we were atrocious, going winless at home vs Minnesota, Chicago, Philly, Pittsburgh, plus the blowout loss at Detroit, and losing at the Giants, who sucked last year against everyone else. We can give TT the credit for taking Rodgers. And we can forgive him for the BS amount of key injuries. They are not excuses. They are valid. Losing Collins, a great pick, was devastating and unbelievable. Losing BACK TO BACK FIRST ROUND bookend OTs to ACLs, hips, or broken legs, that's BS too. The Niners OL has not had to deal with that. But TT also is the guy who gets the blame when the team without Rodgers looks like the 1976 Buccaneers. And they did last year under his #2 QB and #3 QBs. It's a tricky thing because Rodgers is so great. [/QUOTE]
