The Alternative Route | NFL Philosophy
“The Road Not Taken” may be something NFL general managers may want to investigate further. The clear plan of nearly every team in the NFL is to find a “franchise” quarterback and then build around him. Without a franchise quarterback, most teams aren’t considered Super Bowl contenders.

Not with a bad passing offense, not with an inconsistent passing offense, but no passing offense whatsoever. That was possible in 1933. It was barely possible in 1973. It is completely impossible to beat quality opponents with no passing offense in 2013. The 49ers have spent two consecutive weeks proving this.
