If our o-line coach co-signed on bringing in Matt then his job is in jeopardy. We can only hope that Matt makes a miraculous improvement in his level of play, or that we cut ties with him all together. 

  He is gone. He’s been gone. There is no way he is playing for us again. That was decided long ago. At least as far back as when they told him to get off the practice field around week 8. More than likely it was when he quit on the team in pre-season.

If you're going to commit a huge sum of money toward the QB position, then any Joe 6 pack can see you have to spend to protect him as well. We did. His name is Matt Kalil, he's terrible, and we're fug out of money. Draft someone? I doubt Ron will go for that.

Since Jordan Gross, we haven't had a LT that could protect Cam.  Oher was ok, but at this point in Cam's career, with all the hits he's taken, ok doesn't cut it.

 Ohers concussion cost this team many times over.

The instant Matt didn't pan out we were set to endure a patchwork o-line of guys we're hoping will overachieve. Spending more big bucks on the o-line is out of the question, and high draft picks are not on the way imo. Ron wants his defense back to a high standard so he can have more control over his fate if he needs to call the plays.

  Not with this class. I don’t have faith that anyone coming out will wind up an effective LT.

      Not many people talking about DT, but we have a need.  (DE)  Now this guy is a NT like Brown III

      At this point its Sadiq or bust... A

      But is it about letting Bryce develop or about winning games? Bryce has not been good enough to be an uncontested starter. He just hasn't. How many times has last drive Bryce shown up for 4 entire quarters? Once in 3 seasons? You aren't going to win 9 or 10 one score games every season year in and year out. You may want Bryce in the last 2 minutes. I want that Bryce the full 60.  No one is saying you have to give up on him, but bringing in another QB that can do anything is not hindering Bryce. It helps the team and that's where the focus needs to be. If drafting Sadiq to plague the middle of the field would help out offense, but Bryce struggles to get pass into the middle of the field, is Sadiq a bad pick? Or could he be a good pick with a better option at QB? We can't be afraid to improve. QB, TE, OL, LB, DL, CB, S. It doesn't matter. The goal is SBs, not 5 to 8 years seeing waiting to see if Bryce can develop while the rest of the league keeps passing us by.  Sadiq is a nice option, but I think we have to address tackle if one we like is there because we are painfully thin after this year, a LB to general the field, and a true ball hawking safety that can set the tone in the secondary. Those 3 positions are bigger game changers than a TE that will likely struggle to make a round 1 impact in this offense.

      Lil Stanky 100% in the dot tonight... And our 2nd line has been our best offensive line this season. Maybe our 2C really was on the roster this whole time...?
