If we cut Stew & D.Will 2 years ago

Don't buy the hype, there is enough money to pay players. This idea that the running back contracts have ruined our cap situation is convenient for the front office/owners box but it isn't true. Ever notice how other franchises make big signings, sometimes they turn out to be mistakes, but they manage to restructure deals and continue to sign players the next year? Unless, of course, you don't want to spend money on players.

There's cap room to sign NFL level tackles and corners and give our QB an extension. But if instead you surround the QB with replacement level players and set him up to fail, then you don't have to commit to him long term. And the TV contract money just keeps rolling in. And that, son, is how you read a pie chart.

Dude. We are still paying Jordan Gross, Jon Beason, and Steve smith. It's not just the running backs.

    • KP is not a straight up carbon copy but they look awful close to me.  T
    • You are right. At the same time I don’t think people are watching games going come on Bryce put it on the ground or sail it OB or whatever. They just have trouble seeing him turning his 3 or four or five top games of 2025 into the weekly standard outing. Which you expect for the kind of money he will ask for (speaking for myself anyway).  
    • In terms of comparing Pickett and Young's arm talent it's basically a push at best. Pickett is sitting at 6.2 yards per pass attempt for his career while Bryce sits at 6.0 Last season Bryce was 6.3 in yards per pass attempt. Only Justin Fields Spencer Rattler (both 6.2) Kyler Murray (6.0) 41 year old Joe Flacco (6.0) 44 year old Phillip Rivers (5.9) rookie Cam Ward (5.9) and Tyrod Taylor (5.8) had less pass yards per attempt than Bryce Young in his third season as a starter. Folks going around acting as if it is beyond the pale to say Pickett might have a better arm than Young are living in an alternate reality. You can choose to not believe your own eyes after 46 games but everyone else will acknowledge reality and move forward accordingly.
