Shout Out To Moton


TylerDurden

Recommended Posts

For doing last night what our line would never do for Cam when he was here - stand up for your QB.  When Fowler and Harris(?) cheapshotted Teddy, he ran up in there and roughed them up.  Now, Fowler then tossed Moton to the ground, but that's beside the point.  He went to bat for his guy, and we need more of that attitude from the OL.

Thank you, T-Mo.

(Trai Turner just shrugged his shoulders somewhere)

Moton is the only one who gives a damn. To bad his money is tied up in Paradis and M Kalil lol. 

I still don't know why we bring up Matt Kalil so much. Between Torrey Smith, Short this year (stupidly not cut), Apple, Roberts, Poe and Paradis, we used $65M for poor or no results over the past couple years. Matt Kalil's $25M total cap hit is tony compared to the dumpster fire signings and not releasing moves by Marty.

For some reason, I think people cling to Kalil's $55M contract which had $30M he never got and his dead cap because he was designated post June 1st so it was spread over two years. Also, when we did that option bonus conversion, it meant that he only counted $10M total during the 2 years he played. We really pushed out a lot of money to make him cheap year 1 and 2.

Anyway, hopefully when he's off the books he won't come up, but his contract really hasn't been an albatross compared to the continued mistakes by our buddy Marty.

Yea I could’ve went on a rant of where the money was stupidly allocated across the board but instead of that long as paragraph I just stuck to the olineman.

There is something to this--we want Nasty Brawlers on the OL with some self discipline.  Paradis and Reed and Little have pussified our OL.  It is embarrassing.

If you repeatedly surrender A gap, you have no place in the NFL.  I expect to see some radical changes.

Reed is not an NFL caliber player.

I  remember Trai Turner being the enforcer on our O-line. If anything happened to Cam, Trai was the first to throw bows. 

I liked Turner unfortunately his body just couldn't hold up.

    • Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.   
    • I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?
    • If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
