Kyle Allen was "Pretty incredible"

When has that ever been a super bowl winning strategy? 


Not a historically proven concept, more of a "just looking at the league and competitive teams" sort of analysis and the rise of the next wave of QBs finding quick success/making the playoffs.

CMC has earned top RB money. This is his second year of playing at a stupid high level. This is a big driving force behind moving on from Cam, IMO. Probably part of what Tepper is seeing.

It's also why you hear analysts and former players saying that the route to take is the cheap, young QB who may not be Tom Brady but they won't cost you games is your best chance at a SB. Can afford to pay RBs and WRs top dollar for the short time they're in the league and on your team when you're not paying stupid high money to a QB as well.

True. Plus CMC has absurd leverage literally right the fug now. He can simply point to being our best player overall, AND doubling as out slot receiver. He might get the money Leveon Bell was asking for and he has a good case, too

it is pretty funny lol

Yeah, that play confused the hell out of me. What the hell was this kid thinking? He did everything right, and then decides to throw it away?

He could have either ran for yards, if if the defensive back made the wrong decision made a completion to Olsen. It was going to be one or the other, but he instead he confidently chucks it like he has a receiver open 10 yards behind the safety, but then you see the ball drift out of bounds. poo was funny.

I'm all for celebrating a young players growth... but this team isnt going to make the playoffs with a young, inexperienced qb...

Or a porous Defense that constantly allows chunk plays.  Kyle is not perfect but he is progressing positively and has a chance to make a name for himself, just like another other QB who was given his opportunity to shine.  Bottom line is more playing time will tell, so we're all just spitballing at this point.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
