Note: Every year I do this study, I seem to get the same basic comment, which I'll address ahead of time.

"The difference between the Bengals and Raiders is only 2.18 years. So what?"

While 2.18 years may not be a monumental difference between two individual players, keep in mind that these are the average ages of 53 players per team.

2.18 years on average * 53 players = A difference of about 116 total years between the Bengals and Raiders.

Supports the idea that Rivera is partial to his veterans.

Not really. Hurney ultimately decides on the roster not Rivera. Average age of starters stat may support that but not this.

I love stats, but this one doesn't excite me too much.  The age is mostly on our defense. Pretty sure we were among the 10 youngest offenses last year.

The Panthers average age has remained fairly consistent past few years - good years and bad. A ton of youth usually means rebuilding and often is correlated with a worse record.

Rivera isn't just being sentimental by wanting some older vets in the team. Their leadership can make a difference.

Thankfully we've got a promising bunch of new young guys...

Jackson, Moore, Carter, Haynes, Thomas, Moton, Armah, Obada, Elder, Andre Smith, ... Not to mention CMC and Samuel.

We've added youth and speed all over the field. I'm not worrying.

Yeah, we're currently in a much better position than our Super Bowl year.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
