Thanks to new blood at the general manager position (now we know who truly ran the giants) and the whole world letting Ron know we wouldn't have our Sundays ruined by the conservative poo that has cost Denver a shot at the Bowl :) it should be fun to watch the coaching staff maximize the talent available to ensure a quality product is shown every Sunday.

Drinking to all the new surprises this particular team has to offer and the come from behind wins that just leave you breathless (bring on the ravens and the hawks lol).

Cheers

*tinfoil hat on* I'm probably being paranoid, but there's a small sliver of me that thinks that Gettleman still isn't completely sold on this staff and is basically handing them a pile of poo on the OL and in the secondary to see if they can make it work.  If they can make it work with a seriously flawed roster, let's roll. If we disappoint, he has his excuse to clean house and bring in the staff of his choosing.  If Riverboat goes back to being Ron with the false security of a new contract, he's gonna get bounced. *tinfoil hat off*

not sure this offensive line is as bad as most people are pegging it to be. I remember last year.. people were bitching about the Defensive line. We have talent and lets see what these boys can do. :)

 

I seriously think our interior O-line is pretty solid between Kalil, Silatolu, and Turner.  Bell and Chandler however are still huge question marks.  I don't think they'll be bad, just not good.  Thankfully Cam is mobile because a traditional dropback QB would get killed with our tackles.

Disagree. If you've ever watched Gettleman and Riverboat interact you get the feeling they couldn't be more comfortable with each other. Plus he did just get that contract and won't be going anywhere for a while.

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
