It does amaze me he's too blind to what is working. I said it last week you don't play because they have a bigger contract. Rico is much better than Chubba.

Worse than Leggett's holding.

I hear you. I didn't dislike either of them. I just didn't care much for Hurney. He always seemed to reach for small school talent that he thought could be NFL caliber.

Compared to now. Fox and Rivera having winning seasons every other season seems like a blessing.

A QB that threw for nearly 4000 yds. 21 TDs in his first full season as a QB. God forbid a first-year starter actually doesn't throw interceptions. Just for reference. Payton Manning threw for less yard and more INTs than TD (28-26). So, you're basically saying they should have benched Manning after his first full season at QB.

First, I am still holding out that BY will be the QB we need him to be. Secondly, if he doesn't fit the bill I would rather have a rookie hand picked by our Coach and GM and not the owner. However, sticking with the theme of the opening post. I feel you left out a player I would love to see get a full chance to win a starting job. He's been behind several good starting QBs. I know many of you hate the thought of a Carolina QB playing for the Panthers, but Sam Howell wasn't bad. He threw for nearly 4000 yds in 2023 with the Commanders, not bad considering he has a terrible O-line. He had a 63% completion rate with 21 TDs. The 21 ints are a bit alarming but not necessary something that can't be fixed. Most rookies struggle with INTs their first season at the helm. 2023 was basically his rookie season as he played in only 1 game in 2022.

And Miami wasn't bad at the time we played them

Peanut maybe but Greg was what the TE position looks like now. He was the first TE to have 3 consecutive 1000 yd seasons. I think he should be in.

If things go south for us in the 2nd half of the season I wouldn't mind seeing Hooker. Dude has a big arm and is somewhat mobile. Maybe under Canales he has learned something. I just don't think Dalton is going to get us anywhere. We need to run the ball against Buffalo and keep the Bills offense off the field.

DM needs to get Rico under contract before the end of the season.

The only thing is you are banking on Brooks to be 100% healthy. God forbid Rico gets injured than we are completely out of quality RB. I am not sold one Etienne.

I was all for giving Chubba the opportunity to regain his starting position, after all we gave him a nice contract. However, the difference in our offense with Rico compared to Hubbard was like comparing night and day. Rico runs with a purpose of not losing yards, EVER. It's nice to have two good running backs but loyalty to a paycheck compared to output is absolutely stupid. Canales has to face the reality that Rico is a better back and should be treated that way. To the point where I want us to lock him up for several years. Maybe next year if Brooks comes along, we can trade Hubbard at the trade deadline next year.

I think it is very important that he continues to make plays. Teams are putting their best corner on T-Mac and this leave XL the opportunity to excel. I am super happy he had a great game yesterday. Hopefully, he can live up to his high draft pick.

I'd love to get Howell, but I don't think the Eagles will trade him. The year he was with the Commanders wasn't bad considering their offensive line was crap. I know many don't like him i just think he would be better and anyone we could get. Winston is a pick machine and I'm not overly excited about getting him but Dalton is done. He's immobile and seemed very undecided on his throws. We were fortunate enough to get through yesterday's game without a L.

Pat Jones out time for the rookies Princely or Scourton to show up.

Jacksonville is about to get run out of the gym. They can't move the ball and the Rams are picking them apart.

Super impressed with this guy. If he were 6ft he'd be a first round pick. I loved watching him play. Competitiveness through the roof. Kind of reminds me a bit of Doug Flutie.

Great that we get the help back but we need to stick with who got us here. No need it "inserting" former starters. I do hope that we run with two great backs. Work both horses and run the crap out of everyone.

i'm with you. I think he'll start paying off soon. He wasn't worth the 32nd pick but I think he still might give us some help. That TD against Miami was special. That was a well-placed ball and XL had an amazing catch. I think he's improved since last year. I just hope he starts to put more on the stat sheet.

We ran at will against two of the worst defenses in the league. Miami and Dallas. The Jets defense is much better than both of those two teams. S. Wilks will have his defense ready for our run game. That said we still have to run the ball. What gives me confidence that we will continue to run the ball well is that ALL the players on the field are blocking. T-Mac and Evans were both cited for their outstanding blocking in the run game. I think if we get over 100 yds rushing we win this game handily. However, if we don't run effectively than the last two games were just a fluke and we'll be down at the bottom of the list in power rankings. What are your thoughts? Fluke or Future

I've been a member of this board for over 20 years. The difference between now and back then is night and day. This was one of the only forums I knew that you could go a post and read post daily. It didn't matter whether it was in season and or off-season. The posts nowadays are mostly the same topic over and over just spewing hatred of our coach, GM, QB and owner. Not much good conversation.

I am far from being bent out of shape. You guys want to put Young in a different box. The criteria is set for a GWD. It's not my problem that you don't like the criteria. Get a life and stop attacking people you don't agree with.

the NFL loves their stats. Have you seen baseball yet? Their stats are through the roof.

And that what makes the Huddle the Huddle. Every thing is debated here from uniforms to GWDs.

Honestly, I think they should refine that definition. It shouldn't be a GWD in the beginning of the 4th Qtr. The definition should be winning the game on the teams last possession.
