2015: 

0 pro bowl receivers, 0 1,000 yard receivers.

2014:

1 pro bowl receivers, 2 1,000 yard receivers (Both on the losing side that was embarrassed on national television)

2013: 

0 pro bowl receivers, 1 1,000 yard receivers (Crabtree, surprisingly)

 

So out of six teams, there were a whopping three 1,000 yard receivers, two of them coming on the team that had one of the worst super bowls in nfl history. What did all the winners have in common? Top 15 Defense, and the majority of the contenders all had a top 5 running game. So instead of this panic crap, try and remember one receiver does not a season make, and defense wins championships.

If Stew can stay healthy for a whole season (hell, I'll take 12 games) and our O-line can dominate up front, we have a legit chance. Even just a top 10 rushing offense would be sufficient. However, just as we say this, Shula is in his office chalking up flea flickers to Cotchery and fly routes to Bersin. Dominant and Shula just don't seem to correlate.

Nice to read a positive post around here, it was getting depressing.

I've been telling anyone who will listen a similar story. Focus more on the run game with Sterwart, Artis-Payne, and sprinkle in some Cam designed runs. This will open up the play action to Ginn and Brown downfield.

All this is depending on improved o-line play and our defense getting off to a quick start like 2013. I'm cautiously optimistic so far.

I wish the Huddle would save the doom and gloom until we have some poor showings during games that count.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
