[QUOTE="PackerfaninCarolina, post: 900241, member: 9364"] You could kind of make an argument either way on this. In hindsight, I certainly wouldn't have minded if they could have picked up an OLman who would have been better than Wagner, especially the way he got beat upfront by guys like Barrett and JPP. Interesting thought about how having Jefferson may or may not have helped us win. Would have loved to see if he could have won his matchup against Murphy-Bunting better than Lazard did. But the way the officials were allowing defensive holding to go on, it's hard to say. I would have supported another pick besides Love. But I don't know if that would have made up for certain coaching decisions like not bringing out the right defensive alignment right before the half, or kicking a FG when down by 8, inside the opponent's 10, and at a very late point in the game. Or for the inconsistent officiating for that matter. I think what he's saying is it's not set in stone by any means that the Love pick cost us the superbowl. Kind of the same as another poster mentioned about the Packers should have grabbed Moss before the Patriots did, but I never bought into that being the reason we failed to make the superbowl because the Patriots had him along with about 3 other star WRs and they still lost it against that same Giants team. But I think where the frustration brews is that by drafting Love, they gave up the chance to have a player who possibly could have been a contributor in that game, and might have been a difference maker in the final score, and were picking a guy who would not be used period, assuming a healthy Rodgers. In other words ... No guarantee, but definitely an increase of odds in our favor. [/QUOTE]
