By "leading a team to multiple championships" it took it to mean the MVP of the team, Davis was their best player both years they won. Zombo I was basically talking about the actual Super Bowl game yes. But, if you want to extrapolate it out to the entire seasons....OK. Was TD really the MVP of that team BOTH of those seasons? Even over Elway both years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davis was First Team All Pro Both Seasons and MVP of the League in 98. He ran for 3,758 yards and 36 TDs over the two championship seasons. Elway, while stile very effective, was coming off some .500 seasons before they found a running game with Davis. Zombo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the other, not so much, No TDs...though he did like do a job of running out the clock. That was Elway's game. 4 minutes ago, Zombo said: Davis was First Team All Pro Both Seasons and MVP of the League in 98. He ran for 3,758 yards and 36 TDs over the two championship seasons. Elway, while stile very effective, was coming off some .500 seasons before they found a running game with Davis. Zombo OK, I'll buy that one... My initial thought was not just MVP of the Super Bowl- it was which running back was the de facto leader of the offense that got them there besides.... That narrows it down to Davis and Riggins.... Which reinforces what my initial point was. Having a top running back is nice, but it's rarely the ticket to the Super Bowl.... And as WSS (sort of) said, you can bet it would take the Giants about two seconds to decide to trade Saquon to the Browns for Mayfield straight up....

Stupid topic a year later....why not imagine the players we have getting better instead of always focusing on the players who don't play here. I don't understand it. The Browns are a good young team and should only get better next season and in the years to come but some of you still want to live in the past and wish and hope for other players. Blows my mind.. Perfectly stated Mark & I'll never be able to prove it, but there is no way Baker would be there at 4. BTW, Baker, Ward, & Chubb were the 3 I wanted, in that order. I sweated bullets when we didn't grab Chubb with our FIRST 2nd round pick. I was elated he was still there for us with our 2nd round 2 pick & ecstatic when we took him.

Orion Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 Imagine Saquon at 1 and Mayfield at 4 ......you may sssssay I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one.

The GOAT Brady (gosh, I hate to say that) has Edelman (the Patriots version of our Jarvis Landry)- and a bunch nobodies at WR and just won another Super Bowl... Franchise QB trumps franchise running back, every time. I tried to tell you-know-who- Brady now has six rings, that's more than Jim Brown, Walter Payton, Barry Sanders, Ladainian Tomlinson, and Adrian Peterson- combined. I have always said and maintain that teams go as they're respective QB goes.. not the other way around.. Not the RB.. All a RB does is wear down defenses down.. move the chains when needed.. its mostly on your QB.. Baker proved that this past season.. .. I believe Emmitt Smith has 3 rings if I'm not mistaken... But that Dallas team was sure loaded with a stalwart roster... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kvoethe Posted February 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 Looking back...we could have had both easily. No one was taking mayfield at 2 or 3. Im not disappointed with what we have...just having some fun. If anything...after a few years their contracts would be so expensive we wouldnt have been able to maintain it. Thats one thing about Brady...he never bankrupted his team so they could stay competitive like flacco did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's one thing about Brady...he never bankrupted his team so they could stay competitive like flacco did I agree with Cal, Mayfield would not have been there at #4 if we had taken Saquon at #1. That's Ghoolie thinking. The Jets were hot to take Baker, or the Giants just might have too if Saquon was off the board. The only way to get both was trade up to #2, and that would have cost way too much draft capital... Besides missing out on a top defender that we sorely needed....

Goddammit...if we had only drafted Aaron Rodgers at #11 in 2005.....instead of K2....we woulda been good. Why the Hell did we ever let go of Len Dawson back in 1962? Why didn't we take Tom Brady in the 6th round in 2000 instead of Spergon Wynn just ahead of him? Why the hell didn't I ask that girl out in high school before she started going steady with some other guy? What if I had taken that job I was offered at some point to work for the government? I woulda had a great government pension by now. What if....... What if...... What if....... What if...... What if......we closed down silly What if thread before they have time to germinate.
