Can we defend the slant?

VON BELL. Ouch.

So if our Oline gives up no sacks and just a few pressures next week and the Giants have less than 100 yards rushing, how many Super Bowl threads will we have next weekend? I love sports!

Most interesting thing for me will be adjustments made between now and next game, whether scheme or personnel. Certainly not hitting the panic button.

I don't want to see Bryce play one single snap behind anyone but the starting offensive line. Corral should see most of the reps. Give Bryce enough to get him comfortable. As a few others have noted, it's nice to have a coaching staff we can better trust with these decisions.

I thought all along AE should have gotten looks at QB or at least those wildcat packages. Just don't see changing positions at that point. Yeah, it's been done, but I tell ya he was special as a QB. And as many others have said, with what we had behind center at the time, whew....

I wish the best for the kid. I hope he ends up bringing us a ton of wins, and hope he’s a model citizen and never gets in any trouble. I have no idea what happened that night, but I’ve never hung out with guys that committed murder, and most of the athletes I pull for haven’t put themselves in that situation either.

My main prediction is a complete overreaction by about a fourth of the Huddle fanbase saying we completely fugged this pick.

Like Joe Montana saying "Hey, isn't that John Candy?" in the huddle during a game winning Super Bowl drive.

I was leaning Stroud but the more I hear and see about Young the more I like him. The leadership, intangibles, accuracy, intelligence...all the things I want in my qb. Happy we are in the position we're in regardless, with this coaching staff.

I'm with a lot of the group. I think both are good picks and have the potential to be franchise quarterbacks. I think Stroud is the safer pick because of his size, especially long term. Young could end up being the better of the two but I think he also has the most chance of durability issues. I'd be happy with either, but lean toward Stroud. And we won't know the best answer for several years.

Would be a bit poetic if he stuck around a few years and won a ring here, wouldn't it? #amancandream

And everyone here was butchering the coaching staff for not giving Baker all the reps.

I'd give him a solid B, honestly. He is in an almost impossible situation. Contrary to what some people say, our roster has LOTS of holes, including the most important on the field. Darnold or PJ could be serviceable if we had dominance in other areas. I'd like to see Wilkes be under consideration as a possibility for head coach but I'm certainly not sold that the job should be his.

Oh well. Ballgame. At least we have the Horne... oh wait, nevermind. I should have gone fishing today.

Ok who is placing bets that the Steelers pick up this last 3rd down? Any chance we get a stop?

Getting owned on third down and having our run game stuffed.... amazing this is still a one possession game.

My God this team hurts my feelings.

My god we have to start winning consistently just so we get a better announcing crew. These guys are GODAWFUL.

Just stating the obvious, but a 14 point game feels like a 28 point game with this crew.

This.

Culture and leadership > than X's and O's. And a great football head coach will have a really good OC and DC to handle the play design and play calling. Not sure if Wilkes is that guy, but certainly not sure he's NOT that guy.

Pretty much a wash. I get Rhule was at least trying. He was just in over his head, bad fit for NFL etc. Both incompetent, Siefert was an ass.

Talking heads gonna say that after each loss. Eventually one of them will be right.

WTF. Catch the ball.
