Its been about one offseason with our current leadership.

Only one for the current administration.  Keep it real.

I'd argue two, but I get the point you are making. My point being that this has spanned multiple versions yet this problem appears to still persist.

Gotta do something about it eventually if we want to be successful again.

Unless Marty Hurney was getting his orders from Scott Fitterer last year, it's just one.

Truthfully, a lot of things go through this cycle. It typically ends when they spend a lower round pick on a kicker.

(but sometimes doesn't even then)

You can read what I said and understand it. OL has been an issue for years. Rhule doesn't seem to be much better than his predecessors at the moment. Subject to change.

We don't know how good they are or aren't yet.

We've played one game under this regime. That's way too soon to say anything definitive.

I'd feel better about them fixing it if their vet FA additions didn't look like doormats and yet evidently still considered better options than the rookies they drafted.

They are the only option for the moment.  Let the man cook!  You guys have zero patience.

Very impressed with Brown dropping that much weight and looking as ferocious as he has.

There is absolutely no reason Daley and/or Elflein should be beating both of these guys out at the guard spots.  Maybe if Daley was at LG.  I just don't get how they're so turned around on evaluating this OL.  I get that we're fans, couch gms, whatever, but it is pretty damn obvious, no?

    • 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.
