Injuries have no negative effect on this Team/Staff

Recommended Posts

In the Rivera/Fox eras if a key injury happened, the team suffered greatly. This team is not following that pattern at all.

 

Eli Apple- before the season started he was the #1 CB. Got hurt before the start and IR'd. Came back got hurt again. 

Chris Reed- Currently the starting LG, before the start was on Convid-IR for weeks. 

CMC- best player/weapon on the team.

Russ Okung- missed two games, those two featured Chandler Jones and Joey Bosa as the defender

Michael Palardy- good punter that was in line to get lots of work.

Dennis Daley- Maybe the leader to start LG, missed the first four weeks. Top backup at Tackle too. 

 

Having these injuries at positions of perceived weakness (OL, DB) and still overcame them. Pride, Douglas, Schofield, Little Scott, Davis, and Charlton stepped in with no drop off. Even this past game with Failcons, 3 DLmen missed snaps late in the game and the team still played at a high level. Major props to the staff and players.

not only that but they are getting guys playing time that would have never seen the field w/out injury with our previous coaches.   rhule was saying he's used to developing players from his time in college and its only natural to continue that here.  i likey

I’m not sure but I think you just said I could start LT for this team with no noticeable drop off due to the coaching.

I concur.

Where do I sign up?

Didn't I tell you people to roll with the easy win over the Falcons when y'all started playing with the jinx thing last week...?

Go with the flow, motherfugers; injuries don't matter and jinxes don't matter. Keep your candy ass superstitions off the server! This is a new day. This is the new Rhule! The franchise is pissing excellence, my friend!

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
