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.

    • After some of the calls last year probably won't see much of a drop off 
    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.
    • Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
