Wannstedt had a Super Bowl quality team and screwed it up into a 9-7 season when Ricky Williams rushed for 1,800+ yards. His name offends me.

That was NOT a Super Bowl quality team

If you think Ray Lucas is a Super Bowl-quality QB, you should have already bought tickets to Arizona for the Super Bowl this year.

Chambers?  MicMichael? in 2003 and 2002, they were both good

They were middle of the line players at their position... ie mediocre.

Another thing that was common around here was calling for benching Jay Fiedler, but everytime the guy would go down to injury and everyone was all excited to see the back up come in, we'd go on a losing streak.

Jay Fiedler was not an elite QB by any means, but he was the best QB we had after Marino for a VERY long time...

I agree but that was only because Wanny refused to bring in a QB. he made sure the back-ups sucksed even more. Kind of like a man making sure all his wives friends are ugly so she looks better. At the end of the day she is still just plain Jane.

Didn't we bring in Brian Griese, Damon Huard and Ray Lucas?

Huard was a decent back up. Griese was a decent starter in Denver and a good guy to have as a back up. Lucas had a nice run with the Jets.

People were throwing their panties at AJ Feeley to replace Fiedler.  We saw how that worked out.

None of those guys were threats to Feidler and Wanny knew that. AJ was the only threat to Feely and he had no running game because Ricky quit on Wanny.  He did beat the 12-1 Patriots under Jim Bates on MNF though!!

Brian Griese was brought in with starting experience and competed against Fiedler for the starting position. He was a legitimate threat to win the starting job.

We were 11-5 the year prior winning the division, then got Ricky Williams and started the year 5-1. How is that not Superbowl quality? Fiedler went down and Lucas was Geno Smithesque, but when Fiedler came back the team still didn't recover.

I always wanted Griese to get a legitimate shot at the starting job.  I feel like he got some opportunities here and there but it never amounted to much.  I still think he could've been a better QB for us than Fiedler.

Griese was  through after Denver, he left on real sour terms here and he was damaged psychologically for a while.  Jay Fiedler was a pretty bad quarterback, but I will always remember how ballsy he was, had some good games,  I caught his come back win against Denver on that Sunday Night Game.

Fiedler was basically our Andy Dalton.
