Premier QB play will help mitigate not having the perfect roster. It's what they do.

if it were that simple, then all 32 teams would be competing for a SB
True but those are closer positions...hell, having Gipson over Tartt might have been enough. A healthy ER opposite Bosa. A returner. A healthy C or higher end RG/T.
The teams that won kept adding talent.
We were kind of stuck with the QB in 2019 so that had to be the avenue in our reality. No guarantee.

Meanwhile the Seahawks have bigger coaches than our 1techs.
Clint is an absolute unit.

Adding one more premier OL, ER and/or CB/S (back then or now) might have just been enough. We had to ride or die with the QB and health obviously but we certainly were missing on that one piece elsewhere too.
In regards to the DL, I think the way the team sees it is that they have 3 guys in Armstead, Bosa and Hargrave that can be counted on to win their 1-on-1s, and with Wilks dialing up the blitzes, they can add to those wins with blitzes as well as manufacturing opportunities for the other guys with stunts/games. I think we've grown accustomed to lining 4 guys up and asking them to win their 1-on-1s that we're overlooking Steve Wilks' impact with his pressure packages.

That Wilks blitz element is real and a good point. He's got a lot of toys to play with here including LB's, S's and CB's who can blitz which could lessen the lean on needing that ER opposite of Bosa.
I'd still like to have another nickel veteran ER though. LOL

Yannick Ngakoue
Markus Golden
Justin Houston
For starters. Unless you think Clelin Ferrell or Austin Bryant can do it at a high level...Beal?
