I am liking out front 7 more and more. Actually the only unit on D that could use a serious upgrade is our Safeties. Damn they are bad but that is just how we roll. 

It's great to see Poe playing well. I absolutely wrote him off after last years performance. I couldn't be happier that he is producing now.

No surprise a new defense with new parts might take some time to tell.

Things are looking up. Hopefully no more chucklheads repeating.."Hows that 3-4...derp"

  It’s the same 4-2-5 we have played for years for most of the game. What was new?

They are, but we are paying too much for bad---I realize that Boston was a bit of a deal, but still more expensive than a rookie.  Reid wants to be more activist than S--his heart is not in it, based on his body language.  When you hurt your team by taking cheap shots or throw wicked elbows to bring down RBs, you are probably not going to be in the lineup long.

I can't say on Reid yet but they are just not very good/effective overall. Boston is better than what we had but that is a very low bar. It really could be worse but it should be better than this. It's still early but that is coming to a close in the next 3 weeks. At that point, things firm up one way or the other. As for the money, that is more an offseason thing. If there was a way to dump bad money for better money while increasing the quality of player I would be completely behind that, but that is fantasy at this point as far as I know. I don't think we have better options on the team or market so it's time to be thankful for what we have because Jones could be back there and he makes Boston look good, which is an achievement in of itself.

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      By CRA · Posted

      And I have been a big XL guy/fan.  He know doubt was drafted because he fits a role that is in all the Os Canales has been around.  my concern is Bryce, and it’s probably not a talent issue on this aspect.  Just a QB DNA thing.  I really think Canales and XL pair best with a gunslinger/risk taker.   You want to limit gunslinger with the run but then need the QB to go downfield aggressively.   Bryce needs to simply play and be more aggressive downfield.   Which is easier said than done if not wired that way

      Let Rod Walk

      Agreed. People who say this are of the same ilk as "WE GOTTA GET RID OF RICHARDSON SO WE CAN GET THE NFL SHIELD OFF THE FIELD." How is that working out now?  Rod can stay as long as he likes and keeps fielding one of the best teams in the NHL. He does need someone on the staff that understands goalies. That has always been a weakness for him.

      Do I want Bryce Young to be a good QB? Yes, the Panthers homer in me is rooting for him to turn it around against all odds and prove all the haters wrong.  Do I think Bryce Young will be a good QB? No. And the odds are he won’t be. I didn’t think he’d translate to the NFL from the moment I watched him against the Texas defense in 2022, a game Alabama only won because Quinn Ewers got knocked out of the game. When he faced pressure he looked like sh*t and that’s the exact same QB we saw in the NFL. He’s too short to step up in the pocket so you have to design a gimmick offense to allow him to improvise plays. He didn’t scream “first overall pick” to me at least.  Meanwhile CJ Stroud played out of his mind in the biggest game of his life against the best defense in college football and the Panthers said nah we’re going to draft the 5’9 guy who couldn’t carve up an average Texas defense.
