  1. What won’t happen is people won’t see a real NFL arm putting Bryce to shame on a daily basis so they got that part right.
  2. The main thing Field’s has impressed me with is his attitude after leading Pittsburgh to a winning record and being sat down because Wilson was healthy. He handled it like a man. A pro. I wasn’t sure he would. I don’t know about his actual quarterbacking potential having any real chance to parallel Darnold’s progress.
  3. Warming up to him. I expect good things. Turns out he is from a military family and was raised with discipline and decent manners. Hard to go wrong with that sort of foundation.
  4. Tempted to watch Luke do something one more time but no. It’s flag football.
  5. I think DT would be an excellent place to invest. And ditto for Rodriguez or another compliment to Lloyd. We could set this defense up right this year. But if a left tackle of merit is there in the 1st or even our future RT is in the 2nd I have to be practical. That is a major impending issue on the field and in the pocketbook and has to be addressed.
  6. Okay I hear Ed Oliver and Aaron Donald. Is that realistic? I been sleeping on this guy.
  7. To me it seems he runs a little upright. His highlights are blocked well, and he is very north south getting upfield which that is a good thing. This is the norm of average but capable type of running back. You get what you can block, he doesn’t dance he heads upfield.
  8. I think he is in the black. The Legette trade and the Brooks trade are the bad ones. The actual assets given weren’t the issue, the selection was. But that trade down prior to coming back up for Brooks? Masterful.
  9. You don’t have to wait, I am sad now. Been sad for three years outside of maybe 10 games out of probably 40+.
  10. I don’t disagree with that, but it got pretty extreme at times. And understandably so.
  11. I think you are so biased it isn’t funny. I mean, it isn’t “where Darnold was.” Darnold is easily twice the QB Bryce is. Please stop projecting the wishing and hoping and stick to what is.
  12. We are kind of forced into it by the lack of a quality passing game.
  13. I think just about all the signings have been 27 and younger.
  14. He must really be slow. I saw an interview with him, that wasn’t really impressive, so that’s two negatives now.
  15. Well, buh bye Andy. Thanks for the Vegas game. If you had been able to play better maybe we wouldn’t still be stuck with Bryce. Good luck you are gonna need it.
  16. Is he hurt? I don’t understand why he would make that decision otherwise.
  17. Look at us play and tell me we are in a different era. We are old school. Team is being built old school. I get people mostly don’t use fullbacks any more, but then I don’t know why the hell we would need 4 TEs. And we are not going with a bell cow back system. Two backs, 1a&1b needed for 17 games. A QB that can’t run a sneak, now that is definitely not old school. I admit that. I would find somewhere to cut the roster by a player if we had a real short yardage guy.
  18. I think we have before. I am not sure Dillon is the guy to carry, but he is the type of guy to carry. edit. Offhand, Davis, Foster, Hoover, Goings, Rod Smart. 5 count em, 5 RBs. I am gonna say with 17 games you might want to if you plan to be run heavy.
  19. Bryce is better than Darnold between the ears? Really? I would love to see Young go into a new team with a new system and go straight to the Super Bowl. He is nowhere near as developed as Darnold is. He has only seen two very similar systems. He has quite a ways to go to catch up to what Darnold has been exposed to and had to absorb. Not to mention that Darnold is bigger, stronger, taller with better field vision and an arm that can attack a defense pretty much anywhere on the field. That is my opinion of course.
  20. I don’t think it has a lot to do with him, really. Possibly insurance but he is a different type of back from what we already had. Not a high volume guy, more of a specialist. At least that is how I see him.
  21. We have been doing that since Foreman. Since CMC has been gone. Chuba, I know. I think we could have a stalwart under a multi year for continuity and fill in around him. Hoping for more from Chuba this year though.
  22. We badly need a role player that can pound the rock when we need a yard or two. And be an outlet receiver. Even if Brooks comes back we don’t have that short yardage guy.
  23. I think they are closer to each other than in quite some time. The obvious upgrade needed on offense is get Qb play that doesn’t rank in the mid 20s. Granted WR and TE and probably C could be upgraded but a better QB might make what we already have, better. Even XL looked better with just Dalton. RB too, but we might have something there if Brooks can play. Defense we need some help for DB up front and another ILB and two or three more pieces. S, edge, cb.
  24. I don’t know if he is the right one but he is exactly the type I think we should add. Short yardage guy that can catch. He doesn’t seem to be the most talented guy that ever suited up….
