Star and KK were dominant today. If we don't lock down this tandem for the future it will be a colossal mistake.

No, he should not. The season is on focus on football. 

I'm the first to admit star was great last night. And we are a better team with him, that is however off the point. 

1. How will you let walk instead? 

2. Hour much of a drop off is the next guy up? 

Large nose guys are not in demand right now, that's why a guy like Love was unsigned at the start of last season. And substituting star for love does not in any great why affects how good a defense is.

Fua and McClain come onnnn down!!  Amiright?

Of course we need to re-sign Star.  He was a potential #1 overall pick and we were orgasmic when he was available for a reason.

I don't know if people realize how important Star is to our defense. he eats up blockers and frees up luke and TD. We need him but we can't break the bank on him. I'm confindent in Vernon Butler but it would kill me to lose Star. Lucky for us we have Hurney now who will throw a record contract his way just in time for a new GM to take over

Gettleman would have 100% resigned Star. He understands the QB, OL, and DL are the most important positions and where the majority of the money should be spent on star players. I think DG would have negotiated a better contract than Hurney

That was when huge guys were still the trend. Speed is everything right now. 

We have a GM now that knows dts and would never let guys like Fua sniff a workout. Oh xxxx, you are right: We are basically looking at star  @$15M a year or Fua 2.0. In that scenario I'll take star...

Star's going to get his contract, and so will Norwell.  Hurney will find the money to pay both of them, unless he truly is interim, in which case I expect he gives the incoming guy a path to it as an option.

Some of you should just chill out and enjoy the team as it is now.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
