Don't Expect Ryan Kalil to be Cut

Hurneys comments on Ryan

"On veteran center Ryan Kalil, who has said the 2018 season will be his last: “In my mind, the way I look at Ryan Kalil is the guy makes a huge difference for our line with the communication and the way he makes other players better. He’s the leader in that room. I think there is the importance that you see in what he brings to your team. When he came back the last four games, I thought he played well. He should just get better and stronger during the offseason. I think the importance of having him back is significant for us.""

Ive felt some distain and frustration with Kalil primarily with his injuries. If he can stay on the feild and off the sideline im cool with it. 

 

Hasnt he missed more games than he has played last 2-3 years? 

 

Either way, gives us a little more time to find a replacement. Needs to be priority asap

How can you feel disdain for someone who's not playing due to injury?! It's not like he got hurt off the field. He's one of the top 5 centers in the NFL and he's been healthy most of his career. We should absolutely be looking for his heir apparent, but cutting him to save money would be really short sighted in my opinion.

That is one expensive clipboard.

Hurney's biggest downfall is his loyalty to his players.  I think he gets emotionally attached to them...Hurney is right, Kalil is a leader.  But you have to be on the damn field, Marty.  Why MH thinks he will be better after the off season is because EVERYONE gets better (healthy) during the off season.

Yeah we honestly run the organization too much like a family and not like a competitive business.

Historically the teams that have won Superbowls and continue to win decade after decade are the ones that draft well and have made one tough decision after another. We pass out lifetime payment plans to make sure guys great great great grandkids are still cashing our checks.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
