For the streets typa. Hope XL ain’t getting too mixed up in that.

and leadership in the locker room (the players say he's a leader and believe in him)

Bradberry is the better CB and I dont think its too close. They should have played together

I was as big of a fan of Josh as anyone and was pissed about that situation then and still am today. But Bradberry was also a legit #1 corner for a while here, not as flashy as Josh or as mentioned before in this thread not at the level of Josh's peak, but he was more consistent and just a quiet stud. Like Gamble was. Was just correcting the post from before about how the draft was completely wasted trying to replace him, which is a notion I just disagree with. Bradberry was a great pick and legit #1 corner. As I already posted, the rest of the draft was an absolute disaster but we did come away with a Josh replacement. And yeah it should've been both but I'm just evaluating the moves after the Josh fiasco. Also worth noting we did have Bene who was coming off 2 incredible seasons before breaking his leg late in 2015. I don't think anyone expected him to fall off nearly as much as he did following that injury. If he had gotten back to that level of play, Bradberry on the outside with him in the slot would be a decent pair to bolster a corner group. Those 2 plus a veteran outside CB signing after the Josh fiasco would've been a reasonably good group. But Bene couldn't get his conditioning back and sucked and DG was confident in 3 rookies which was dumb as hell.

Playoff run incoming

comedy doesn't really work well in 2025. Sadly.

AJ and Free are the only 106 and Park hosts I recognize. The show was dead to me when they replaced them.

My initial reaction also. He needs some of that too.

This leads me to think Bryce has a level of comfort and confidence which are both good things. Hopefully this and last year's uptick translates to game day. I'm cautiously optimistic.

I was there, about 4 rows from the stage. Was pretty awesome though I wasn't in love with the set-list. Wanted more off AJFA and even Master. Was hoping for at least one of the more rare ones this tour, Harvester, Blackened, or Inamorata etc. I think this was my 5th time seeing them. But still, two hours of great music and we lost 2-3 songs because of the 11pm Charlotte curfew. I recently had emergency gallbladder surgery with complications so I didn't know if I could handle standing but luckily got through it, I mean it's Metallica. My friend had his 11 year old there for his first real concert and everyone around us was working hard to get him a pick and have fun (my nephew ended up grabbing a pick for him). We had a friend with employee paring nearby that dumps out of the city fast so only a 10 minute walk and we were out of there but I heard traffic was bad.

Sounds like it has potential.

Yeah, it’s a bad defense with an unproven offense with potential. Not the same thing at all.

Mcshays new podcast ranking qbs, they are saying if arch comes out (they dont think he will) there could be 8 or 9 qbs in the first 2 rounds. Damn this class is loaded with talent

Your comment about STs is spot on. I coached one season with a former UNC LB (Dwight Hollier) who played with the Dolphins and Colts as a player. He said, "If you want to stay around in the NFL, you better make some noise on special teams." He said (paraphrasing) "The special teams coach has a voice when they are making cuts. You want him going to bat for you. A backup LB with no ST skills is a nonfactor, but a backup LB who makes plays on special teams is valuable. "

He did. I remember watching a game and asked, "Who is that?" Windmon's stats in limited play were solid. I remember commenting on him here at the time. He had 3 pressures as well in 128 snaps. PFF game him a pass rush grade of 64. I do not see any help added right now.

I do not like the 2015 comparisons. We had a good defense with an elite core and an offense with a good core. This entire team is still a question mark and I will be surprised if we win 9 games.

No you've just become an oldhead my brother. Most popular music is sex/money/drugs and always has been. The country couple is cute together but it does worry me a bit that Legette's a social media cowboy crush before he's even football famous. Like if Taylor Swift was at the beginning of Kelce's career. Normally athletes have to stay relevant in their sport to date in this sphere but Xavier has a modeling career waiting for him if his day job ends up being a bust.

We did not draft any inside linebackers. We play a 3-4 in which the inside and outside linebackers are different to the extent they have separate position coaches. These are essentially different groups altogether.

Pleasantly surprised. Didn't think Bryce was the type.

When you realize Shaq had to carry Rhule/Snow and Reich/Canales/Evero after having success under Rivera/McDermott/Wilks and Wilks/Holcomb, you know the problem was never Shaq.
