Matt Kalil to be cut?

Would be very interesting to see if Carolina would want to sign him.  Team him up with big brother.  Could move him to RT.  Didn't Remmers come from the Viking stable.   Maybe their O-line coach sucks and he would do much better under Matsko.

There are a few interesting names on that list. I have a feeling Gettleman is really going to work his magic this offseason and our roster will look even nastier by the time next season comes around. We already have a talent packed roster, and we have 20 million dollars under the cap right now, before any moves or anything like that. It is fuging on people. The NFL is not going to know what hit them. The dominance will only continue.

Don't see it happening. Would YOU want to play alongside your much better brother when you were supposed to be much better than him?

You can look at it that way or you can look at it that Big Bro knows Lil Bro better than anyone. 

Look at what we did with Oher.  Why couldn't the same thing happen with M. Kalil. 

At minimum I hope we bring him in.

.....alternatively it might have always been his dream to play for a Superbowl contending team much less play with his closet friend growing up.....you know just a stab in the dark

Ya Think.....  Seriously he was such a high valued OT coming out of college.   He wouldn't be the first OT to be a bust.   Sometimes those around you make you worse than what you actually are. 

His brother is a Pro Bowler and we have one of the best O-Line Coaches in the Game along with Ray Brown.   That would be a definite upgrade for Matt.  Worst thing he can say is NO.

You know the pedigree of being from a good family is there.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
