It's a phrase Scott Fitterer used in his presser. Basically it means that they're going to explore every opportunity.

Ian Rapoport mentioned that pretty much anytime there's a player coming available or something like that happening, when Insiders go to check on who might be interested, Seattle is just about always on the list. And once they identify someone they want, they go after them aggressively.

Sounds like that's gonna be us from here on out, so if you've been frustrated in the past, asking yourself questions like "Why aren't the Panthers checking into this?", you should probably be pretty happy now.

From the article...

"But before we do anything outside, I need to figure out who's here. I need to figure out this roster. I need to figure out who's on our offensive line, who's on our defensive line. I know them from a 30,000-foot view, but I need to know them from a coaching standpoint, and a personal standpoint, and meet these guys and see what they're made of.

Confirming again that the trenches are central to his team building philosophy...

I know this is what Fit is saying now, and I'm genuinely excited about the hire, but I'm curious who was making the majority of the decisions in Seattle?  Because their offensive line had long been regarded as one of the worst even after they drafted Wilson.  Their defensive line has always kind of been a potluck of "ok" vets and young guys that never really pan out to their full potential.  It seemed their scheme was heavily based on the secondary, defensively.  So, I'm wondering how much input he had there if that has always been his philosophy?

I've really liked everything he has said thus far, but I'm just curious as to why it seems Seattle's setup wasn't representative of his philosophy.

From what I've read, I think that comes from Pete Carroll.

And for sure, he'll be working with Matt Rhule so whatever Rhule prioritizes, he will too.

A refreshing change for sure.

Don’t get me wrong - I don’t want adapt the Saints’ approach of signing whoever and damn the salary cap but it would be nice to know we’re going to be as proactive and aggressive as we fiscally can be competitive.

Why not?  Seems to work pretty well for them.

I don’t think I’m reading too much into this here but it seems like we are a lock to sign Dak.

We won't have the opportunity. He is 100% not hitting the free market. Either back in Dallas on an extension, the tag or he's tagged and traded. They're not letting him walk without anything in return.

      In addition to Evero there's one large change that likely should happen.

      By Saca312 · Posted

      It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.

      CBS Sports brief discussion about questionable Canales decision making

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
