nah, he doesn't really bother me. it's just funny he's so unbelievably invested in being smartguy newsbreaker camped out fourteen hours a day to update us on what color jackie miles's underwear is today despite having massive blinders and awful takes on so many things.

Maybe.

Or perhaps, crazy as it sounds, I'm just a guy that likes to talk football who has a different opinion than you.

(most people don't actually seem to have an issue with that)

I'm not sure anymore, to be completely honest!

I can absolutely see going out and getting your QB.  Unless you have a franchise QB, you're always looking for one.  That's kind of an age old adage.  On @ellis's podcast, Steven Ruiz made a similar point to how the Chiefs have been kind of wackadoodle in their player acquisition.  Doesn't matter too much because Mahomes hides all kinds of deficits.

On the flip side, we have SO MANY holes on our team.  Giving up all of that, it would make it hard for Watson to really thrive here to make the investment worth it.  I mean, we've seen teams with lesser QBs win SBs with a much stronger team around them.

Heck, I'm just a fan.  I don't envy the guys in the building who have to weigh those kinds of options!

Thank you for listening to my podcast. It certainly softens the blow from the one guy on this site who posts as if he follows me around at night in a ‘94 Cutlass Supreme. 

I’ve always enjoyed stopping by here. Jeremy has been very nice to let me share some of our episodes. Always an interesting conversation hub.

      Down in Atlanta....

      Exactly this as well.  Beyond age concerns--by the time they find out if they have something in Penix, they'll need to work on a new contract not long after.  The newer league winning QBs have gotten extensions by year 3 (ie. Burrow).  So, if Penix somehow lights it up year 3, he could turn around fairly quickly, probably by year 4, and ask for an extension.  ATL has really no buffer time in easing the bucks off the QB room to build a team around him.  Not to mention, they'll be needing to make decisions on Terrell, London, Pitts, Bijan, a lot of high end investments BEFORE seeing Penix through, and that's IF he works out.   Lindstrom's contract is backloaded too and they can't cut Matthews until after 2026.   Just a terrible use of resources as it relates to timing & salary allocation, no matter how you look at it.   You're in win now, so get a talent to win now.

      How short a leash will Young be on?

      By bandu · Posted

      it's  already going to be painful enough watching Caleb Williams throw TD passes to DJ Moore on a regular basis week in & week out   & naturally not sit there & reflect back & say to yourself woulda shoulda coulda especially if Bryce Young never looks remotely similar to a #1 pick

      Agreed.  I would expect most realistic fans to tamper their expectations.  There is a scenario where we simply over drafted him at 1, but he still has a solid career and can become a franchise QB.  That is what I am curious to find out.  Does he have what it takes to become the guy.  If he can somehow do any of the stuff you stated in year two then fantastic, but that's not where my head is at judging by his rookie play and the state of the franchise.
