Im not going to sit here and say our OL isnt shit because it is. However Im certainly not going to sit here and talk about how Griff is just a guard and a tackle away from being Tom Brady.

No one is a guard or tackle away from being Tom Brady. It still does not change the fact that new QB's develop better with a better OL. Everyone wants a new QB but why will that matter? It will be the same song and dance that we have dealt with for 20 years.

You cannot develop a good QB with a crappy OL. Why get a new QB only to ruin him as well? We can spend 5 draft picks a year on QB's and still wont find one with the OL that we keep putting out there.

To your opening question. Its very simple.

WE... NEVER... DEVELOPED... HIM... AS... AN... NFL... QB...

Seriously, you guys should go back and look at the great QB's first few years in the league. They missed a crap ton of throws as well, both with their arms and their eyes. The main difference... While they missed them, they had the ability to see the play develop and actually learn something because they had an OL that was competent. Its called developing a QB. We have yet to try it in several decades.

No I dont want a new QB because that QB will fail as well. Only a Brady or Rodgers will have any success on our team, even then, it wont be a SB or deep playoff run. But those guys have already been developed. Luck would flat out suck on our team. Russell Wilson and Colin Kaepernick wouldnt even be called QB's if they played on our team. None of those three would ever be anything in this league without a team that helped to develop them (and lets face it, Wilson and Kaepernick both suck as anything other than a running QB).

Until we choose to develop a QB properly, the whole get a new QB conversation that we have had for two decades will continue for two more decades. Its a pointless conversation to have. Why people, who claim to know the sport, cant see that is beyond me. Aaron Rodgers wont be a free agent any time soon so developing a QB (You know like GB did, or NE did, or the Colts have done multiple times) is our only option. And that wont happen with Trent Williams being our only good OL.
