Hmmm wonder where I've heard this before:

Yes, the OL needs help. Desperately. Need Siemian back as well. But if we can't protect Trevor, then we might lose our starting QB for a long time, and then the season is pretty much over. 

Plus, we have obvious holes on defense. We are in a serious predicament.

Takeaways:
- Kubes can't make game-time adjustments
...
- Denver's offensive line is a joke

...
- DT continues to drop passes in big games
- Kukes can't manage the clock

And you thought our fanbase overreacted.

LOL Denvers fans are whining. 

I really think we can pull it off tomorrow. We get a healthy Cam following week. Maybe the football gods are going to bless the secondary and we will play a complete game. 

Regardless this game will show what we have in our coaches. If Ron Rivera keeps mentioning that the Patriots are the gold standard and we see them go 3-1 without their Star QB, TE, and key offensive lineman, our coaching staff needs to rise to the occasion

The Atl defense is playing good.

The big takeaway though is Shanahan has grown into his job.  He's not running the same predictable bullpoo that he was running last year that everybody watching any film on his offense knew was coming.

He ADJUSTED.

What an amazing fugging concept.

Yeah, talk to me in December about Shanahan. There was an article last year that detailed all of his seasons as an O-coordinator and how he always starts off well, but then the second half of the season he goes full dumbass and everything falls apart. I don't anticipate sustained success for them this season.

Want me to go over how many busts hurney has drafted? But no no gettledouche let smitty go screw him being cheap and taking us out of cap hell and drafted really well.

Success>Busts. Of course the GM who leverages the draft for more picks will have more busts. Look at the ratio of impact picks:seasons. That will tell you everything. If one GM drafts 10 players in a single season and 3 are impact players while the other GM drafts 5 players in a season and 2 are impact players, then the GM with 3 impact players is doing better. I would even weight the impact picks. 1 Cam Newton > 1 Shaq + 1 Funchess.

All Hurney team: 11 seasons

Cam Newton; Stephen Davis; Jonathan Stewart; Steve Smith; Muhsin Muhammad; Keyshawn Johnson; Greg Olsen; Jeremy Shockey, Jordan Gross; Evan Mathis; Ryan Kalil; Mike Wahle; Jeff Otah.

Julius Peppers; Mike Rucker; Kris Jenkins; Brenston Buckener; Luke Kuechly; Jon Beason; Thomas Davis; Josh Norman; Chris Gamble; Ken Lucas; Terry Cousin; Deon Grant; Chris Harris.

All Gettleman team: 4 seasons

Joe Webb; Cameron Artis-Payne; Fozzy Whitaker; Kelvin Benjamin; Ted Ginn Jr; Jerricho Cotchery; Ed Dickson; Scott Simonson; Michael Oher; Andrew Norwell; Fernando Velasco; Trai Turner; Mike Remmers.

Kony Ealy; Jared Allen; Star Lotulelei; Kawann Short; Shaq Thompson; AJ Klein; Chase Blackburn; Peanut Tillman; Antoine Cason; Melvin White; James Bradberry; Roman Harper; Kurt Coleman.

All Hurney would destroy All Gettleman. At best, Gettleman is even on DT and S. Overall, Gettleman is about halfway to Hurney's tenure and is far off from Hurney's impact. Gettleman's rate of success needs to pick up some speed. It has been very slow.

    • If we divide the league up into quarters you need to be able to make 8 worse starting QBs for him not to be bottom tier. Who are they?
    • It just doesn't add up to what we're watching. It feels like you're trying to convince yourself that Bryce can just make a few adjustments and pan out. You say he turns the ball over because he's over aggressive and I just don't see that. A lot of his turnovers are just bad throws oftentimes because the balls sails in him. The fumble issues? I mean, you have the smallest QB in the NFL getting hit by extremely large powerful kej who knows based on film study that this guy is prone to coughing up the ball. If you're being hit by a much larger, much more powerful man intent on removing the ball from your possession you're gonna lose that battle a decent amount of the time. I think some of it is due to bad footwork but some of it is also that when there's traffic in front of him he has to try to get the ball up and over that pressure due to his lack of height. His release point it just several inches lower than most NFL QBs, no way around it. You saying it's more difficult than simply looking at outcomes while completely leaning on situational stats to try to convince people their eyes are lying to them and Bryce's arm isn't a significantly limiting factor in his game. Some people are hyperbolic about his lack of arm strength but honestly he has one of the weakest arms in the league. That's just reality if you objectively watch him play versus other NFL QBs. If he had time in a clean pocket and can step up into and through his throw he can make most throws but that's the problem, for him to make the tougher throws everything has to go perfect. If there's pressure pushing him off his spot or pressure in front of him where he can't step up or has to try to loft the pass over the scrum it's probably ending in a poor result. The problem is that's a commonplace scenario in the NFL. It wasn't at Alabama. Trust your own QB analytical system. Bryce being very the bottom of the league matches up perfectly with the eye test of just watching him olay
    • If he wanted to be as irrelevant as possible in his final year he's achieving it.
