It’s a great situation for him. Washington has a lot of talent. Ron’s hangup here the last few seasons has been Sean McDermott and Steve Wilks leaving. He couldn’t replace them on defense and he can’t handle calling plays and being the HC at the same time.

steve Wilks will go with him and will be like Dick Lebeau forever being just what he should be,.. a DC.

young quarterback and a lot of talent and a great place to live. They also have the 2nd pick and could very well trade Haskins and draft or make a trade for Cam Newton.

poo,.. we should trade them Cam and Luke,... stock up on draft picks and start this biach all over again with Tua and offensive line picks.

this is the longest post i've ever read where literally every sentence is wrong

what a pure, beautiful thing you have created here

I don't understand the vitriol for Rivera. I swear he must've slept with a couple of your wives. 

Playing it safe? The Redskins are a complete rebuild job with big market expectations. The desperation some people have to make up slights on Rivera to somehow make themselves feel better is perplexing. It was time for a new voice in Carolina but I wish him well in Washington.

Safe... taking a job on a horrible team in one of the most popular football markets in the country.  Yeah.  Playing it safe.

You misunderstand what I mean by safe. Safe doesn’t mean winning. Safe means taking the job on the only interview he had, on a team with very low expectations, very close to his old job. Rivera has a better shot at a Super Bowl on any other team with a head coaching vacancy right now (with the exception of the team he just left)

He took the job because with Allen gone he has complete control and a lot to say about GM and President. He is in charge of football operations in a 5 year deal for big bucks.Rivera knows he can change a culture, he did it here. Now he gets to do it again and avoid all the mistakes of last time. In the nation's capital who are dying for a winner. This was the job he wanted.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
