Matt Kalil In Seven Acts


Saca312

Recommended Posts

There was many a comment of 'I will be happy if he's average' on these forums. The bar was set extremely low for MK's expectations. Somehow he has passed underneath it. Maybe he should take up limbo?

And I'm pretty sure he's given up 6 so far so he's on track to equal his epic 2014.

Jeez!!........He's more worried about his foot work than getting his hands in the guys chest. What is up with the whole patty cake thing?? And all of our linemen look like they know absolutely nothing about leverage. Tell me again why we picked this softy up??......He has ZERO attitude. Sometimes you just need the mindset of, "I'm going to line up here and punch you right in the mouth"....Where is the nastiness on this O-line?? Just looks like a bunch of guys that are scared they're going to mess up.....Get your freaking hands on the other guys numbers AT LEAST!!

Watch Hurney try and pry him away from the Cowboys.

At least Mike Remmers can handle power and most rushers that aren't elite. 

Matt Kalil flops against anyone that can out-push him.

That probably includes a tackling sled, someone's grandma and a gust of wind.

The worst possible outcome I had about the Kalil brothers is coming true; the good one can't play and the other one is awful. I had at least hoped our experience last season with a constantly shuffling O-line would've had us more ready for contingencies. That might've been overly optimistic.

He's trash. I understand why we signed him since he's relatively young and plays a position of huge need and importance (and his brother is our long-time center), but we botched this one. We should've gone all in on Whitworth to secure the sure thing. I understand trying to find a guy who could protect Cam's blindside through his prime years, but rolling the dice in a  big way on a reclamation project with an elite, but aging option available. Eh... wasn't a fan of it at the time and unfortunately it's looked like most of us feared it would look. But hey, at least Ryan got Matt paid.

    • My biggest fear with Bryce Young is that he will always do just enough to stick around. He shows flashes and then drops a turd so the hopium is always there. Like his career highlight reel if you cut it up to some hype music and did a YouTube video would actually be quite good. His great plays really, really look good. But after that video you look at his yearly averages for completion percentage, yardage, touchdowns, and virtually every other metric and it is meh as fug. Like you know Bryce is gonna be 13/23 for 157 yards a touchdown and probably a pick.  I will 100% give him his flowers for his athleticism and ability to scramble outside the pocket. I haven’t seen the mythical “super processing ability” he was touted for per se, but he has shown flashes of absolutely elite awareness when it comes to scrambling. The little basketball move he does to shake defensive linemen has almost become a signature move. It’s hard to explain but you know it when you see it he stops on a dime and pivots like he is gonna hit a step back jumper and it has gotten him out of a lot of trouble.  I sincerely, truly, as a vocal Bryce HATER, hope that since we are obviously running with him next year the coaching staff actually tailors plays around his strengths. He needs to be in a pure spread IMO. His size is much less of a hindrance when he can play QB in open space. I feel like most of his highlight reel is from scrambles and play action/bootlegs.
