He also hasn't had a good front 7 pass rush three of those years (and the 2022 Broncos pass rush wasn't particularly talented either outside of Chubb). Cover 3 zone (Evero's primary zone) usually leaves underneath routes open, so QBs will usually have that checkdown option with the DC's hope that somebody then steps up to make the tackle for a short gain. Think of our Seahawks game - while the Seahawks didn't get a ton of sacks, Bryce got baited into the checkdown and the Seahawks wrapped up and tackled the RB/TE almost immediately every time for practically no gain. Unfortunately for us, half of our starters are rocking missed tackles rates that makes me want to vomit, so those 2 yard checkdowns to RBs turn into 10 yards in a hurry.

1) Marquise Brown (Shaheed might be a bit too expensive) 2) Probably isn't happening - can't afford to waste cap there. Just gotta roll with our TEs we have or draft one. Maybe Darren Waller if he has anything left. 3) Probably gonna be out of range for Reese and Styles, so no to drafting ILB round 1 if they are gone. Would be great if Woods, Faulk, or Terrell fell. Possible we take an OT also if they drop, especially if we move on from BC and with Moton on his last legs with us. 4) Not sure we have the money to get a high end pass rusher in free agency and would rather not burn more money on underachieving edges like Wonnum. Keep developing Scourton & Princely and draft an edge (ideally 1st round unless BPA other position is better) 5) Sure, but it would have to be a day 3 draft pick IMO (unless a really good one drops like Starks last year). Little out of FSU is somebody that fits Evero's scheme well (if he is back with us). I like what I see on tape out of Wheatley from Penn St, but I think he will shoot up draft boards after the combine. 6) Dalton needs to be cut the day after our last game of football this year... Not a great free agent crop of backup/fringe starter QBs that won't break the bank, but Mariota, Tyrod, or Zach Wilson are worth a look or start looking at day 3 trades for other team's backups (still would like Winston for a 6th rounder or similar value)

Sadly Bryce had almost as many passing yards against the falcons this year and than all the other teams he faced combined... Just crazy that we are a playoff team with a QB we are thrilled with when he throws for over 100 yards in a game...

I can already see Canales scheming up twice as many flea flickers for us to run if it's raining...

Less worried about Rod in the regular season, especially with all the injuries and terrible goalie play from Freddie. Now, if we lose in the 1st round or in embarrassing fashion in the playoffs again, I think there is an argument. The tough part is that Rod's system is better suited for the regular season than a seven game series where coaches can adjust

While I agree I would like to see Horn in more man coverage, good luck doing that when you have no pass rush and a LB/S corp that couldn't cover a senior citizen in coverage... Don't get me wrong, I hate how much we run DropZone coverage and give up underneath routes for cheap first downs. That being said, we are a bottom five talent defense in the NFL and somehow have been average on the year (and his defense is the reason why we have over half our wins). We can all hate his strategy of bend but don't break, but that's the strategy most DC's use now. Make a team have a 15-play drive touchdown on you - odds are, there will be some kind of penalty or negative play that will make a third down conversion difficult. I really would like to see Evero run our D with either a legit pass rush or Beason/Luke/TD caliber LBs. That luxury would give him more chances to run exotic blitzes or man coverage blitzes

Is anyone else confused why this guy has been in our forum since the packers game? Like, I'll take the good will I guess. Just weird to be in here rooting for us for like 2 months

Hopefully Big Rob can play. That should help reduce a lot of the interior pressure because Corbett gets beat like every other play...

Man, Bussi has been such a great get for us. Hopefully we have our goalie 1 for the future

I'd honestly be happy paying Icky 25 mill/yr for 4 years. Guy gets a lot of hate, but he has been a good LT for us. And it's not his fault that our brain dead coach never wants to run off tackle to the left and let him pancake people...

Nice, I was contemplating but didn't feel like throwing down $250. I'm tempted to make a 4 hour drive to Charlotte and be with locals for the game though

He is very raw and has made a ton of bad mistakes over the course of the year. He has definitely also shown flashes of greatness. Pretty much what I expect out of a third rounder

Made the Panthers bet sometime after the Rams win and the Texans bet before week 1. I fully believe in the Ohio St and J-Lo magic before we lose in the Superb Owl for a 3rd time

49ers would likely be easier

Knowing the fact that our sweep of the falcons is the only reason they missed the playoffs feels pretty damn good

If only we played the falcons every round of the playoffs.... I guess the good news is we likely get the Rams and Stafford went to Georgia. So maybe Bryce can play a good game again

If the Rams win (which they will since they are like 17-point favorites), we get the rams. If they lose, the 49ers

Usually that's the Saturday afternoon one I think

Wouldn't have made much of a difference between a second place schedule

I'm guessing Saturday afternoon

Ohio State and J-Lo magic are still in effect baby!

We all know how this is going to end - the falcons choking and the Saints winning

Rain, snow, wind, or perfect weather conditions - he still looks like ass 90% of the time

I agree - 8-9 teams don't usually have a -69 point differential like we do... I honestly think we were a 5-12 caliber team this year that managed to get lucky and win a few games in the last minute (mostly because the team we were playing shot themselves in the foot nonstop)

His voice sounds like what we all expected - a 12 year old that hasn't hit puberty yet...
