We are lacking execution because is a group of entirely new players on offense (including a rookie QB) all trying to build chemistry while learning a new offense. We hung around our first two games so hopefully in these next couple weeks it will start coming together and getting some wins. I’m ready to start eating some “Ws” like Jameis!

I think the point some are making is you can’t simply look at position groups in completely different schemes and tell who is upgraded where. I have definitely done this through the offseason. What people like @Mr. Scotare saying (and please correct me if I’m wrong) is bringing in a completely new staff with a completely different scheme on both sides of this ball is not only a huge adjustment but a process than takes more than 1 offseason to fully complete. A rookie QB and every starting skill position player on offense not on the OL are all completely new this offseason. Plus they are all learning a new offense. It’s borderline like an expansion team. Then the defense is switching to a 3-4 which is great for Burns and Brown but the entire rest of the front 7 was made for a 4-3. Plus they as well have to learn a new scheme. Hopefully we will see some huge improvements as players get adjusted and comfortable in these new systems but injuries to Horn, Shaq, BC and others on a team that currently has no depth isn’t helping.

Yeah that was ugly. I’d like to see a look at the whole play because the read he appeared to be looking at was being hugged by a Saints defender. Strip sacks happen to all QBs though, even Cam as we saw in the Super Bowl.

I watched him do it in the NFL, it just usually results in a throw away or incompletion so it’s not a memorable highlight.

That’s getting overhyped on here. I’ve seen him duck out if many tackles, he simply lost his balance from the DL yanking the back of his jersey and stumbled over himself trying to over correct it. I mean he is clearly no Cam or Allen but he doesn’t have trouble escaping pressure. Plenty of things to critique but that really isn’t one IMO.

He is a LB so yeah when you try him at FS it doesn't work very well. Leave him in the box and let him cover some slots and TEs.

Lol my bad. It's been a long day. Yeah Chinn won't get us a 1st. I was getting frustrated with Chinn making plays on Monday then getting pulled the next play.

Burns won't get us a first back? Didn't Denver trade Chubb and a 5th to Miami for a 1st, 4th and running back? It was a contract year for Chubb too. I would think Burns would fetch us something similar if not more.

Tannehill who is a below average vet QB played much worse against that defense to the tune of 3 INTs completing 47% of his passes....

That plus he is just a better version of Thielen. A slot possession WR who is good at finding holes in the defense. Kupp just plays for one of the best offensive minds in the game. Oh and we have his former assistant (Thomas Brown) but refuse to let him call plays....

If it’s a wash year spent developing Young it’s not a bad idea to trade Burns if you can get good value for him. Luvu should be much cheaper to keep them you can pay a WR like Higgins the contract he wants and also extend Brown (who I think is the most important person on defense). It’s not a terrible idea and someone will overpay for Burns.

He had a QB hit outside of that I didn’t hear his name that much.

It's very early but he is flashing with a defensive HC, terrible OL, and not many weapons. It will be interesting to see where they all finish.

Super Charged Cam that can't finish a game. Has he put up 400 passing yards like Cam did his first week? Hell the Colts offense didn't look much worse with Minshew who I think is underrated. Here is my concern with AR. He has injuries in college with is why they limited him running halfway through the season and he has already had an injured knee and concussion through week 2. I don't know if he can handle 15 more games of trying to run through NFL defenders with a weakened knee and previous concussion. Now the Colts look to have a good HC, but again it's still way to early to make any kind of judgement. If we are going by week 2 the Bengals should cut Burrow and Sean Peyton can win a game as a HC. We both know these things aren't true.

I don't think so, but Stroud is looking tempting though it's still very early. I also had a draft crush on Stroud so I am a little bias here.

He hasn't finished an actual game yet. Hopefully he can stay healthy but a bruised knee, plus a concussion this early combined with his style of play is a little concerning.

It wasn't all "prevent defense" anyway. They switched to cover 2 when we got in the redzone and Young still delivered. We were a pretty close onside kick away being down by just a FG. The 2 point conversion was also regular defense.

You don't draft another first round QB unless Young completely implodes through week 17. If we get a 1st round pick it will be used to get Bryce a weapon or try to replace Burns. You shouldn't waste valuable assets like a 1st rounder on a "just in case" situation. A flier on a late round QB that you can develop into your backup/potential starter makes more sense.

That's probably his overall rating including week 1.

Sounds great! But more importantly have a great trip in Italy!!

It looked like our DC started putting CJ on the 3rd option for some plays when he started struggling. I saw Hill and DJax on Thomas in the 2nd half.

You were all in on Bryce for the draft. Let's see how he progresses before we try drafting his replacement.
