So it's a Klingon?

Hmmm, I wonder what exactly he is going on here? Clearly not our records/wins, or cap management, coaching/play calling

Unless he's saying NOW they're run by people who know what they're doing in which case I wonder how he knows that after two seasons.

Or maybe he's going on moral victories and players in which case we kick ass.

He was taking about the here and now

what is this....."video store" of which you speak?

[The Huddler]

This guy is a douchebag.

 

 

 

yeah, Cam sure has had all the help, resources, coaching, and talent that Luck and Wilson have had..

 

Its not like Cam has had to completely carry his team before..

 

[WUnderhill]

I think Polian just wants Cam to be bad because he knows he never would have drafted him if he was our GM and we'd be sitting here with Marcell Darius and Pickles.

Correct list, except in between 1 and 2 should be 'get a time machine'. That's required to access the video store.

you all know damn well there is a Family Video in your town...and that ewok is clearly an Alf

Luckiest man in the business. Lucks into Jim Kelly because the USFL folded and lucks into the #1 pick/Peyton Manning. These lottery tickets have given he and his family every reason to be happy and gay and for some reason cause for some to give credence to what he says. He's a bitter old fool.

[Mr Mojo Risin]

I'm fine with building a strong defense.

But if you're going to clear out Newton's entire WR core and make his #1 WR a rookie in the same offseason that he had ankle surgery, all while heading into a contract year, you can only blame him so much for the circumstances you put him in.

Yeah we ended up winning the division and a playoff game, but those blowout losses should not be so quickly forgotten. One of the main reasons for those losses was the lack of firepower we had on offense. That's okay if your defense is picking up the slack, but that wasn't happening early on. Even in the playoffs when our defense had returned to form somewhat we still allowed Wilson a near perfect passer rating on 3rd down. Again our offense did not have the firepower to keep up. If our goal is to win the Super Bowl, which it obviously should be, we need to do all we can to keep improving our offense. The "well all we have to do is replace this number on yards and we're good" approach was laughable then, and it was even more laughable when we were getting shithoused by teams like the Vikings last year.

Yeah signing Ginn is a start, but we definitely need another receiving threat, and it looks like it will have to be through the draft.

Exactly. Ron's approach to the WR core last offseason was head scratching that's why we went into the season with freakin cotchery and avant as our #2 and 3 Wrs. What Qb in the NFL would succeed with that? Not one.

[panthers55]

Pollen is spot on. The organization is being run right at present. No one is talking about the past simply the present. Secondly If people would stop being so defensive about Cam they would know that Polian is saying the same thing that Gettleman and Rivera has said. Cam is an incredible physical specimen but he still is learning for example how to throw to spots instead of waiting for the receiver to clear. He is still learning to read defenses and figure out what he needs to do. He came into the league with one year D1 experience starting and that was with a simplified system that didn't really teach him about NFL defenses. He has made tremendous progress but is still behind guys like Luck and Wilson who came into the league after 4 years of college and were more pro ready than Cam.

He is definitely our franchise guy and should be paid a ton but let's not underestimate the distinct disadvantage he had coming into the league which he made up for initially with athletic ability but ultimately needs to be overcome with experience and time.

[KendrickPanther]

What Polian is talking about with one side being young is what the Colts have been doing since Andrew Luck was signed. They've been drafting young and cheap on offense and hiring veterans with salary on defense. I haven't looked at their cap this year but last year the Colts were the 1st or 2nd in defensive cap spending and bottom 5 in offensive.
