notthatbluestuff Posted July 6, 2020 Author Share Posted July 6, 2020 So apparently the above pic doesn’t show on mobile. I am terrible at quoting, using multimedia, or doing ANYTHING on this forum. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeT14 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 That sucks too, because he looks pretty good in that uniform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7DnBrnc53 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 What if Elway, Kubiak, and Wade Phillips all retired after SB 50? On 104.3 The Fan in Denver, I think that Sandy Clough said something about how Kubiak wanted to retire after that game, and he tried to get Elway to join him. If he did, and if Wade also retired, the last four years of Denver football would be very different (and, it's possible that the NFL would have tried to find a new owner for the Broncos. One fan on another Bronco board said that the NFL tolerates the trust because Elway is GM). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonserinNC Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Im a Bears fan so ooofff haha Mine is what if Drew Brees had gone to the Dolphins. Dolphins clearly had their choice of Brees and Culpepper as they were a decent franchise and the Saints were pretty much a Cleveland Browns type franchise before that. Really changed the course of those organizations really since I was a kid haha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter2_1 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 What if they ran the ball.... Even though my team benefitted from the actual outcome, I'd be interested to see what would happen if they ran it up with Lynch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August4th Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 I think the 2018 Bears win the SB and go down as one of the best teams of the decade if they drafted Pat what if the Browns drafted local area kid big ben in 04? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7DnBrnc53 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) Interesting, but here's my take: In 2000, the Jets would have had three other QB's (Vinny Testaverde, first-round pick Chad Pennington, and Ray Lucas, who had a 6-3 record, 1,678 yards passing, 14 TD's, and 6 INT's in nine games as a starter in 1999). As a result, I see him getting cut and signing with SF's practice squad after talking to Steve Mariucci (the 49ers had Garcia as starter, Rick Mirer as backup, and Gio Carmazzi, who struggled in pre-season. Also, they wouldn't have had Tim Rattay in this world. The Pats would have drafted him if Brady wasn't there). After a year on SF's practice squad, he makes the team in 2001 as second-stringer to Garcia. Brady is finally the guy in 04, but the best he does is a 4-12 record, and SF gets the third pick (behind Cleveland and Miami). After the Fins take Alex Smith, and the Browns take Braylon, the 49ers' new regime takes Aaron Rodgers third overall. Brady is the starter for another year or so, but Rodgers takes over by mid-2006. Then, in 07, he decides to stay in the Bay Area, signing with the Raiders. They still are bad enough to get JaBustus, and when he falters, Brady grabs the job in late 2009, and doesn't let go. The Raiders win the AFC West in 2010, 11, and 16. He is still there today with Gruden, as they go to Las Vegas.

KingOfNewYork Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 31 teams passed on Russell Wilson and I have to hear about the Jets passing on him because Terry freaking Bradway used the "I was banging on the table for him" excuse to save his job for 2 more years. Oh please. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40Year Pack Fan Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) Just think what would've happened if the Packers had drafted Barry (or Deion) Sanders instead of Tony Mandarich.... Edited July 7, 2020 by 40Year Pack Fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
