I am considering adding a feature to the huddle for members who enjoy writing but want a way for the public to keep up with their articles in an easier fashion. 

Huddle blogs would be a separate section but work seamlessly with the huddle. You would have your own link with your articles like any other blog, but huddlers could read and comment without making a new account or such. We would feature the better blog posts on the main page and in the forum. If you are looking to build a name for your writings, the huddle would provide a boat load of traffic to it. 

It is an extra purchase for me, so I just wanted to gauge interest before investing. Please vote in the poll.

This is a hell of a concept. We have several people here that IMHO write better than most of the beat writers do to include Jeremy.

 

I think we can really make it worthwhile if we could select people like PhillyB, Mr Scott and a few others to dissect each game by position group much like we adopt players.

Say for example, somebody used to play O-Line or WR, while not an expert at that position necessarily it would work if they broke down a particular position group. I think this would be a better way to educate Huddlers and the common fan alike.

I'm all for this idea, and will even become All-Pro to help curb the cost.

This could really be some cutting edge stuff that can further set apart The Huddle from the rest of sports forums. Jeremy, you are a trail blazer bro. Glad to be apart of this, even though I suck for the most part.

while I realize that people like PU would be making blogs, I still think this would be a good idea. I like to post original game previews and it takes up more space than some huddlers want to read in a forum thread. a blog would give me the opportunity to post my write ups with the condition pre-set that it would be a long post.

I hope we do this Jeremy

Sure.  I'm ready to read all the crappy articles that Fairweather Joe puts out once Cam throws an interception, or CJ has under 8 sacks by the midway point of the season.

But for real though, yeah.  Even though you know there's inevitably going to be so many shitty articles it'll make Bleacher Report look like Grantland, there are at least a few intelligent and insightful posters who would make it worth while - assuming they post that is.

Give the minions a false sense of ownership.

Damm Igo, another good, on paper, idea. No resting on those laurels on your part. Very open minded, thinking of all angles, always looking for an edge, and all the while, never forgetting to allow the troops input type thinking of you.

 

That said. I would consider righting one of those blog thingys for you. You can count on me not to let you down. And would take the responsibility as serially as the position allows.

 

Also, I still am unable to purchase an ALL-Pro membership.

Funny, over the last year and a half I've written countless "articles" disguised as "comments" but deleted them because I figured no one wanted to read 3 paragraphs (or even 1) on what I was thinking. This would be awesome and I would jump at the opportunity. 

Really hope this comes to fruition.

    • Not sure if they are happy but realize they can’t upgrade everything this year and are content with the group
    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
