Team captains

Kurt Coleman could sneak in there.

No he couldn't. All 6 of those guys are established team leaders. This is Coleman's 2nd year with the team. The only possible surprise would be if the coaches mandated that one of the captains be from Special Teams in which case it could be Gano or possibly Jansen. Otherwise it is those 6.

If ST gets a Captain then I want it to be Webb. How awkward would that make DA feel? :D

Coleman is the outspoken lone veteran leader in a room full new players/voters whose prominent knowledge of Charles Johnson is that he wasn't on the team for a portion of the offseason.

As I said, he has a chance to sneak in. I'm not predicting he will, but there is certainly an opportunity.

Does anyone else HATE the gold emblems they use for captains?

I don't know why they don't use the primary color of the team. Like if ours were blue on the Black/White jerseys and silver/Black on the Blue Jerseys.

the gold just sticks out to much and only looks right on New Orleans.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
