I'd be happy with that. 
our defense got us to 13-3
Yup. That defense, o line and run game. Just about Any qb on that team would have at least made the playoffs.
Who was the #3.. josh johnson,Tolzien?
Kap wasn't ready. Thats a lil offending to Alex, he did enough. Yall forget against the saints he had a great game. Probably best of his career. No championship game without Alex.
Yea I said almost any qb. Not bums. But any average starter could have made the playoffs on that team. He had 196 yards a game, 17 td and 5 int. That's like kaps numbers last year.
Same as saying any qb could have won the super bowl in 2015 with the broncos d. Peyton was completely terrible. Brock had a few heroic moments during the season as well. Doesn't change that they won because of the run game(in last half of the season for broncos) and defense.

Very true. But actually, I'd rather win with defense. I wouldn't want a team that scored a bizzillion points and had a defense that ranked near the bottom. I don't think a team like that does very well in the playoffs. For me, I want an offense that has the talent to move against most, if not all, of the top defenses in the current NFL. It should be balanced with a very good run game and a passing game that can convert on 3rd downs. Most of all, I'd like a QB that is cautiously aggressive. Alex is too cautious - on the scale of caution meter. I'd want a QB that was, say 30% less cautious and 30% more aggressive than Alex. I want that QB to not hesitate to throw the deep ball if it's there.
