The Seahawks playoff game deflection was the best play I've ever seen any linebacker make in coverage. The Romo first pick speaks to how smart he is and how he's the general of our defense but the play in the Hawks game is just truly unbelievable, like I still can't really believe that it happened. So glad we've got this guy and Cam locked up.

 

On a side note, when was this filmed? Was it before Josh signed with the Skins or was he wearing a Panthers shirt as a Redskin?

Yeah, it's one thing to be football smart and know everything your opponent will do before they do it, but do you have the physical tools to stop it?

Luke does and it's HOF level talent.  Scary and awe inspiring to watch.

It's something beyond physical tools. There are linebackers in this league who are faster and more athletic and can jump higher and further, with longer arms, etc. who could never make that play from the Hawks game (and I'm not talking about some practice squad workout warrior who doesn't know which way is up, but about other smart players, even pro bowlers). And frankly that wasn't a play that you need to be extremely smart to make. It was something otherworldly.

I was pissed when we drafted him. Called him a skinny bitch. 

 

Last time ive ever questioned a draft pick. I couldnt have been more wrong. What a phenominal player. 

Had you even seen him? He was prototypical size.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
