I consider our defense to be trending in the elite direction.  So to compliment, I want to really see what the top teams have in the league.   The easy answer being Pat Mahomes or Tom Brady, but it's worth consideration. (I may miss some top guys, but you get the picture)

The notable cores:

Buffalo

QB-Josh Allen

*Tandem backfield

WR-Stefon Diggs

LT-Dion Dawkins

C-Mitch Morse

Cleveland

QB-Baker Mayfield

RB-Nick Chubb+Kareem Hunt *Tandem backfield

WR-...questionable

TE - Trio approach

OL-Bitonio+Tretter+Conklin+Wills

Chiefs

QB-Pat Mahomes

RB-Meh, might as well be committee

WR-Hill

TE-Kelce

OL- Brown+Thuney+Humphrey

TB

QB-Brady

RB-*Underperforming tandem backfield

WR-Evans & Godwin

TE-Gronk

OL- Wirfs & Smith

Arizona

QB-Kyler Murray

WR-The entire Group

SF

It's the OL, Deebo & Kittle

DAL

Overall balanced attack w/Dak, Elliott, Pollard, Lamb, & Cooper

So....

My takeaway: You either need a top flight QB, a top flight OL, or a good enough QB-Receiving w/a few top OL that makes the package click.  Some of these have top RB talent, but are any really workhorses? Who has the overworked RBs? Us, Minny, Titans (good team, awful D), Cinci, Saints...

Dallas has even adjusted and Pollard is getting more carries depending on the matchup. 

In light of the CMC discussion, it is worth considering how we prioritize the build that continues (and looking quite good at the moment regardless of injuries)

We're getting close.  And I don't think we're that off, and the next focus should be OL without question. Finally, after all these years.  OL OL OL OL OL

Rhule does not throw players under the bus and most of what he says is to motivate guys.

I do not believe anyone is satisfied with our OL.

Also it's within context. Like within the context of their capabilities they played well,not necessarily within the context of what's considered good o-line play haha.

Rhule said today,  the O line played good....... Help me understand.

You still believe anything Rhule says?  Are you nuts?  The guy is a serial liar.  And I don't hold it against him at all.  He says what he says to help his cause.  Not because he wants to let anyone know what's actually happening.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
