I am not reading into Brooks’ situation off of this. As far as what have to work with I believe a pass catching RB helps more than a pass catching TE. Also we need a short yardage hammer. If it is the same guy, okay. Ideally the alternate RB can do a lot of that. The catching.

This was cool:

NM,wrong thread.

I would have been great with him. The ground rules though, were the coach comes from offense. And the latest trend was playcaller so that too. And Bryce is our QB. I am not throwing Canales a parade right now, at all. However, for the sake of argument, if results are the final arbiter? He came in not ready for the job and in year two, technically, they were a division champ. So whatever you think of him, he has some ammo for his cause. This year should tell a lot with the reorganization of offensive chain of command and Bevell on board.

No? Lol. As if you have a clue. Get back to me when you escape that cloud of delusion. The people Tepper wanted to hire wanted nothing to do with job. poo is documented.

He was hired because there was no one that wanted the job. Tepper and Bryce Young in early 2024 after that 2023 season? People they wanted to hire were ducking out of the way. It was openly discussed that maybe we would need to hire one that wasn’t ready and let him grow into the job. And that is what they did.

Notice I did not use his name, and repeated my wish for a Tolbert type. Which for me would completely justify keeping 4 RBs. I am not sure he is what I was calling for, but I am glad to see a bigger back brought in.

We could. If we had a Tolbert type, short yardage beast and good as an outlet receiver, I would probably rather do that than have 7 WRs or 4 TEs

Yeah. Until they know 100% about Brooks they have to replace Rico. At the minimum.

Morgan gave a press conference on FA today.

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.

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.

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.

Tempted to watch Luke do something one more time but no. It’s flag football.

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.

Okay I hear Ed Oliver and Aaron Donald. Is that realistic? I been sleeping on this guy.

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.

We need to hope he knows what. It is the one thing I doubt him on. It makes no sense to me,

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.

You don’t have to wait, I am sad now. Been sad for three years outside of maybe 10 games out of probably 40+.

I don’t disagree with that, but it got pretty extreme at times. And understandably so.

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.

We are kind of forced into it by the lack of a quality passing game.

I think just about all the signings have been 27 and younger.
