re: Worse talent level in Payton era

I was not arguing in support of the OP. I think he is underselling the potential of this years team altogether. Most agree with parts of his reasoning just not his overall conclusion. I was simply pointing out that in my estimation only one of his deductions may actually be hypothetically correct. Then I proceeded to outline the obvious reason why I felt that way. Which had nothing to do about the overall talent of the team...simply the dead weight/drive killing terrorist we have at backup QB.

The main point I was trying to make...even if Drew were to go down we have a QB on the roster who I believe can win games for us this year just not option no.1. Rookie QBs win regular season games every year...even the really terrible ones. Grayson is certainly flawed however given a chance he can make plays possibly enough to win a couple games a feat I feel no other backup on our team can manage.
