I remember a Gross interview a few years back, he said practicing against Peppers for years definitely raised the level of his game... Think it's safe to say that Gross could've got CJ & Hardys game where it is... I like this cycle of production, the team makes itself better....

Prob'ly drunk on miPhone using CarolinaHuddle...

Wasn't it hurney who picked him up?

On a side note to hurney. If he hadn't drafted cam and luke he would probably go down as the worst gm of all time.

To be fair, your record at playing Nostradamus isn't so hot.

 

(not that mine's much better)

 

 

Good read. Man I hope Slater is right about him.

 

 

Hope Slater is right.

 

Jackie Slater is one of the best offensive linemen of all time.  I'd tend to take what he says seriously.

 

Slater played 20 years in the NFL, as did our assistant OL coach Ray Brown (they were never teammates).

This is like a two year project.  We remember Chandler was filling in on the O-Line while he was on the practice squad in 2012.  This isn't some spur of the moment decision to get this guy to play on the offensive line.

 

His athleticism has never really been questioned and he has been working with Ray Brown and Jackie Slater?  Who better to learn from.  What is that like 35 years worth of experience?

 

I believe DG has no doubt that Chandler will succeed.  Our whole season offensively rides on Chandler.  If there were any doubt he would have signed someone as a "Just in Case".  I do believe we will sign someone when 53 man rosters are set but that person will be a back up not our starter.

i'm still in wait and see mode before i feel at all comfortable at OT.

 

slater may be a stud and have a great eye for talent, but he's also not coaching chandler for free. not saying he's lying, btw. my standard has always been "let's see it on the field".

I've been on this Chandler-wagon for some time and if one of a few things this staff has proven us right for so far is coaching up talent they find (This is also why I'm pumped about a brand new WR group).  Nate has the talent and seeming football IQ, athletic, great size..is totally a mold under the current reigns.  He reminds me of Bakhtiari a bit but more of a real tackle.  

 

And I think the "Hurney brought him here" idea is faulty outside of a select few with big contracts.  He's still here for a reason.

      He's handing off play calling duties to fuging Brad Idzik as well so, either that mouth breather can run the playbook and Canales can grow as an all around head coach or it will be a horrible decision and both of them and BY can screw off. I'm fine with that as long as it isn't just another excuse for BY to get another year with another coach worthy of working around his limitations as a qb.

      Not only for Andersen but the whole team, having not beat the Habs this season before tonite.  Shows them that they aren't jinxed.

      I understand why people say things like it could be worse in relation to Tepper but it just doesn't jive for me. Are the optics bad? Yes. Would I want her to be the owner of my team? No. But I mean she's only been owner for a year and the Colts overall are a better run organization. As far as I know they've also never had the distinction of having the worst win percentage in all of professional sports either. Tepper has owned this team for 8 years and about the only thing that has been consistent has been the ability to continue to find different ways to achieve new lows. Even now people are saying things are different yada yada but we said these same things at certain points under Rhule Fitterer and Reich. I'm going to wait to see how the rubber meets the road this upcoming season before I make any strong conclusions about anything in relation to the longevity under this franchise going forward.
