Slye is the kicker because Gano was the kicker because Ron and Hurney cut Harrison Butker

This is facts.

We should've won today but we didn't. We have good players left but we're not winning and we're not as good as the Saints bc of bad decisions by the coach and FO, and the kicking situation (which should've been an easy decision for them and was totally avoidable) came back to bite them. 

Wanting big structural change is perfectly justified here

I mean a cheap upgrade at K fell into our lap and we let him go to KC bc of loyalty. That's too shortsighted for today's NFL. 

Don't think it was loyalty. Most people thought Gano was the safer bet and better kicker at that moment in time. Very similar situation to Slye vs Gano but its obvious Gano is better in this scenario.

Ron will state missed opportunities cost us the game. In some context that is accurate. What he will fail to acknowledge is that Slye has demonstrated he is incapable of playing at the NFL level and that Ron is implicit with Hurney on allowing Slye to continue to be the kicker. Like Philly said, this “should” be another nail in the coffin.

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
