Your chances of winning it all increase dramatically with an elite quarterback.
lol crawling back
Anyone still believe ya must have an elite QB to win it all? Didn't Tim Tebow do more for the Broncos than Peyton Manning? How many rookie QB's were in the playoffs? Christian Ponder? A first time starter in Kaepernick coming within a bad non call from winning it all? Who thinks Joe Flacco was an ...elite...QB? Hopefully all of you who did think..."need that elite QB"....learned the realities of the situation......ya don't!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
How many draft picks do we have....a ton! Gore has a couple years left in him, hopefullly Hunter can stay healthy as well as Manningham. Not much was made out of the fact both of them were hurt last season. James and Moss (current Moss) a big step down.
Good to see Seattle coming on, that puts heat on us to win those season games, no room to slack off.
Now add Boldin to an already great team, how about NFC favorites?
Being a life long Niner fan has been pretty cool, we have been as successful as any NFC team. Have had a ton of Hall of Famers, the best QB and the best receiver ever. Would ya believe the shotgun formation was started with the Niners? The only team in history to have three future Hall of Fame running backs all there at the same time. Ronnie Lott!!!

Reggie Bush really does needs to play in the slot more. The guy is a great receiver something that gets forgotten. Get the guy out in space, he is one of the fastest backs in the league (Charles the fastest). Maybe the Lions will figure it out.
There is no need not to see the Broncos as the AFC favorites right now. The addition of Welker is huge. Moreno is all the back they need.
Percy Harvin will be the second fastest Seahawk ever. Who can tell me the first? He will make a huge difference in that offense, like Bush he can make anyone miss and can outrun DB's. They do need him coming out of the backfield so a few running plays would work.

Gonna be a big hole where Sopoaga left. Certainly not crying about Goldson leaving but wish him well.
Yeah, the Niners are in good shape but need to have a strong draft and find a veteran for the secondary.
Giddy about the prospect of 3 receiver sets (Manningham/Trabtree/Boldin) with Davis at TE.opposing matchups, somebody is gonna be (wide the ) open.
Need to continue to teach the Oreo to slide/get the outta bounds and I like our chances
welcome back, avante. great thread.
crawling out from under a hole
Nope. Never did. All that crap about elite quarterbacks being the key to winning a championship is just something Vegas uses to set odds. You need a team full of players (and usually a quarterback) playing well at the right time to win. Flacco played really well in the post-season, but that wasn't worth $20 Million. Winning the Super Bowl shouldn't change that. Had the 49ers been able to get those final five yards (stop with the penalty-whining), Kaep would have been no better than he is now. There's a reason why "elite" quarterbacks fail to win multiple rings (after getting the distinction) while new quarterbacks keep getting crowned every season.
The Niners could have made it to the Super Bowl with Alex!
Actually he would be since it would mean he was good enough to get those final five yards when he isn't now
I guess. But had they called a pistol play and scored off it, Kaep would never have had a chance to show he couldn't complete a five-yard pass in three tries.Actually he would be since it would mean he was good enough to get those final five yards when he isn't now
Had my aunt been born with a , she'd be my uncle.
Sure (unless you mean an aunt by marriage here). But if you're using teleology to evaluate quarterbacks, the "elite" distinction loses all its power. If the only quarterbacks who are good enough to win are the ones who end up winning, there's no point in discussing them.
We could be looking at the best receiving group in the league. Yep, somebody will be open.Gonna be a big hole where Sopoaga left. Certainly not crying about Goldson leaving but wish him well.

Agree about the sliding/out of bounds.
Yes yes and yes.
Thanks bro.
Do you watch football?
Do you work at being an idiot?
That was stupid.Actually he would be since it would mean he was good enough to get those final five yards when he isn't now
You also must be giddy about having a QB who can deliver when a Super Bowl is on the line.Gonna be a big hole where Sopoaga left. Certainly not crying about Goldson leaving but wish him well.

But so would Josh Freeman. That man was (and still is) insanely clutch.
Flacco was by far the best QB in the playoffs, it wasn't even close..
If the ans could have gotten 1 more yard, if Peyton doesn't throw that INT, if Tyree doesn't make that catch, etc..abundance of examples that could have changed NFL history, but they didn't..
Who are these "new QBs" that have been crowned?..
2013 Joe Flacco- borderline elite, I'll call him a "new QB" for your argument
2012 Eli Manning- borderline elite after 2nd ring
2011 Aaron Rodgers- elite
2010 Drew Brees- elite
2009 Big Rape- borderline elite after multiple rings
2008 Eli Manning- "new QB", subsequently proved to be a borderline elite QB
2007 Peyton Manning- elite QB
2006 Big Rape- "new QB", subsequently proved to be borderline elite QB
2005 Tom Brady- elite
2004 Tom Brady- elite
So, 2003 was the last time a QB that wasn't at least borderline elite won a le..
There have been 2 "new guy" QBs that were crowned, other than Flacco, and those QBs ultimately won another ring to cement their statuses, tbh..
What's the argument here?..
What if the holding penalty is called like it should have been?
You can win it all without that.."elite"...QB. You can be a contender with rookies.
