No, the bottom line is this team with its current running game can put a shit ton of points on the board. Sure it could be better but it doesn't NEED to be.

Sticking with the OP it's cool and all to want someone better than Wells on the team but the simple fact is that there isn't anybody there currently. In my opinion it isn't really good business to try and replace somebody before you have their replacement.

Complaining about the running game is absurd. Last time I checked, we had the #19th ranked D and that's why we didn't go very far last year.

The year before when we won the SB, we had the #2 ranked D.

D wins championships. How many times do I have to prove this?

Our running game is fine. Despite what some people think, Wells is a decent run blocker. Genetics? Really? Yeah, the '97 Broncos' OL was too small to be any good and we wouldn't have to worry about them as our big DL will just run them right over.

I'd actually rate Wells pretty high. I want to keep him. The only arguments that I'd understand right now against Wells happen to do with $$$ but that's 🇹🇹's job. I have faith that 🇹🇹 can figure out how to make it work. He always has in the past. If anything, that's one of his top 3 strengths as a GM.

I want some extraordinarily big fat bastard for the position that is completely incapable of zone blocking, but so good at his job that the coaching staff is forced to abandon the ZBS.

I want a pony for my grand-daughter for Christmas, also.

I want the D fixed. I want to see 3 and outs. I want solid tackling. If we're in the top 5 in D next year, we'll get the 2nd title of this current dynasty and I'll consider getting your grand-daughter a pony for Christmas, depending on how my investments are doing.

The D isn't the biggest reason we lost 2 games. Dropped passes are. We led the league in dropped passes by a large margin.

We need to get our drops down from 8% to somewhere below average. 4% would be near average.

Our running backs are not the problem.

Only dropping an average number of passes would have given Rodgers 365 completions, 4843 yards, 47 TDs, and 4 INTs. Oh yeah, a higher rating and a couple more wins.

The Finley drop in the endzone during the KC game cost Rodgers a completion, a TD and a win.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.

The ball would sort of rise when it came to you and it was hard to see for the last 4 feet or so. Of course this was great if you were going for a strikeout, but it wasn't the easiest for me to catch.

Is Arodge throwing some sort of weird change up? I know receivers used to have problem with Favre at times, just as far as getting use to the "rocketball." But these guys have been with Arodge for awhile. They should be used to his velocity, if that's an issue. Hell, Cobb was probly the most sure handed one out there this year.
