Where is his agent to break the news on the huddle!!??

Ikr?

Pops in a year ago to say, "Hi, his client really likes it here." Huddle was very nice to him, then he vanished like a fart in a whirlwind.

Effin' tease

glad he's back, but he was exposed in the playoffs. i hope matsko can work with him

 I don't necessarily believe that he was exposed as much as the coaches should have done a better job of giving him help. 

Like these articles basically say in so many words here (http://www.todayspigskin.com/pigskin-news/panthers-rt-mike-remmers-says-hell-never-stop-regretting-super-bowl-50/ and http://www.thescore.com/news/1006512 ), Miller has made many a guy look bad.

G-man said that he wouldn't make any rash judgments based upon one game, and that's what he meant. Remmers had a pretty extraordinary year otherwise.

Don't get me wrong,  I hope Remmers improves as well. We know that he remembers. Sometimes that's what it takes to spur someone on to greatness. That being said, perhaps an offensive spy on Miller, be it an extra TE or RB, should be in order next time. I am not holding my breath about Daryl Williams' ability to take Remmers' job.

we actually gave him help all day but the broncos just blue dog blitzed every snap and negated it. shula had a great year adaptively but i don't think we talk enough about how he didn't call any screens or delayed upfield releases to burn those committed linemen. one or two big plays there and you keep back and possibly eliminate those pass rushing scenarios entirely.

You nailed it.  Denver knew we'd be giving Remmers help.  When we left a man back to help, they sent an extra.  Their ultra aggressive play could have been negated, just like you describe.  It was failing to, not only quickly adapt, but adapt at all really.

Yeah, I get that. Perhaps I didn't clarify myself. That help turned out to be virtually no help. In the greater scheme of things, it was a piss-poor performance, from the play calling to the execution. 

Upgraded pieces at some key positions (like the Henrys for example) should help. Wideouts returning and ascending will help as well, not to mention a Shepard, Boyd or Cooper.

    • looks like the same, these guys do a good job with the analytics and metrics
    • except for Bryce.  Chandler don't want nothing to do with that man  
    • Witnessing and FEELING the NFL bend us over and grab our ankles in Super Bowl 50 in real-time…  that was the turning point for me.  I have not viewed the NFL, or pro sports for that matter, the same, ever since.  Look at the NBA.  You’re talking about astronomical odds for the #1 pick on the teams in the back-end of it.  The Mavericks mysteriously and inexplicably out of nowhere trade their franchise players - one of the biggest stars in the league, and an international superstar…  and of all places, to the LA Lakers, with LeBron.  They get back an oft-injured Anthony Davis.  Their team, including Davis, end up getting injured to the point they barely have enough healthy players to play games as the year goes on.  Their GM takes a ton of heat and never really offers a reasonable, not plausible explanation as to why they did the trade in the first place.  He also states that they never took any calls from any other teams, they never fielded any other offers for Luka, and they didn’t even take the offer elsewhere to see what other teams offered.  Absolutely no due diligence.  Now ask yourself, why would a team do that?  Not just in sports, why would any business do such a thing?  Not maximizing your return?  Not doing due diligence?  Fast forward a couple months…  the GM has been lambasted, ridiculed, and belittled the entire time since.  The lottery comes around, and the Mavs, who were just in the NBA Finals the year before, barely miss the playoffs due to all of their injuries.  Davis, Kyrie Irving, etc., all their best players were injured.  They had the smallest mathematical chance at getting the #1 pick.  Guess who got the #1 pick? The Mavericks.  So this plays out like the NBA asked the Mavs to do them a solid.  One of their blue-blood, prestigious, big market franchises needed a bump with LeBron getting older.  LA throws together a garbage package, sending them an aging star and some garbage picks for one of the biggest stars and historically one of the most incredible offensive players in NBA history, and the NBA ensures the Mavs will beat powerball odds and get the #1 pick, when it just so happens that Cooper Flagg, projected to be a generational talent, is coming out in the draft.  You scratch our back, we’ll scratch yours. Also, who got the #2 pick?  The Spurs.  A year after obtaining the #1 pick to acquire another touted generational talent in Wembanyama, after a 20+ year run as one of the most successful NBA dynasties in history.  They suddenly have their first bad year, get the #1 pick ahead of us, the Hornets (after wallowing in mediocrity for decades), and get Wemby, and now get the #2 pick the following year.     There was talk here earlier in the offseason about things lining up for us to go to the Super Bowl this year, and at the time, I half jokingly said I could see it, as the patsy for Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson’s redemption arc.  Again, after all of the poo that happened in Super Bowl 50, then watching the refs stand by idly over the next two years while week after week our opponents took cheap shot after illegal cheap shot on our once-in-a-lifetime talent in Cam Newton…  that poo took a lot of the heart out of it for me.  I’ve said for years, if big money involved, corruption is inherent.  There’s no way around it.  I’ve accepted that every professional sport is influenced by the money.  And storylines bring big money.  It has become purely entertainment with a small pinch of competition.  At least the WWE tells you exactly what they are, and thus, you can enjoy it for what it is.  The NFL and NBA specifically, specialize in crushing the hearts of fans who believe it’s still real and untainted.  fug Goodell and Silver.
