Absolutely but Sam’s the biggest one 

In terms of talent he actually is better at his position than any interior OL we have is at theirs. He even got sacked by his own OL which may be a first in NFL history and I don't mean the OL tripped up or otherwise ran into the QB he straight up literally sacked Darnold once.

Your post here is only true on a technicality since QB is the most important position!

Now get back to your usual(unusual posting) this whole abnormal(normal) posting is freaking me the fug out.

It’s a lot to give up but think about it we’re now stuck with Sam Darnold for the next 2 years 

We're not suck with Darnold anyway.  He has absolutely nothing to do with what they do at qb except ride him to the first overall pick.  PJ could do that as well I suppose,  but it's obvious the plan all along was to ride Sam to the playoffs or the first overall pick.  I mean how could it not be when they didn't bring in a legitimate backup?

If we land Watson we would also have Sam Darnold's 18 million dollar cap hit next season. Might as well trade away Brian Burns an/or Donte Jackson since we would not be able to re-sign them

Fitterer can get creative. But I think the writing may already be on the wall with Donte considering the number of CBs we have.

PJ would give us better odds of the 1st pick as he is worse than Sam. CMC will come back at some point, and then we have at shot at beating whichever are the most injury riddled worst teams on the schedule.

His interception and short throw misses were inexcusable though. He’s making mistakes that a scared highschool QB makes. He’s a professional athlete. There’s only so much coddling we can do for him. If he can’t lead the team then he’s no good to us. 
 

I’ll admit he gave me a lot of hope off his last drive last week but he just doesn’t provide any consistency at all.

We are but I’d much rather have him backing up Deshaun Watson than being our starting QB

We picked up his 5th year option so he’s gonna count about $19 million cap hit next year unless we trade him

CMC will go on IR soon. He's not coming back for this crap.

      They also didn't mind it last year during four nations, or when they beat the fins lol. Sour grapes, they had 3 pf the top four players in the world on the ice when we beat them.

      Mike Kaye: LB Devin Lloyd could be a realistic possibility

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      The tag for '26 is 28M. No way they tag him.  He is projected to be worth around 60M for 3 years so they could still try to sign him on an extension for about that amount: JagsWire   As someone else mentioned, the tag average factors in outside linebackers, aka, edge rushers, in the line backer formula.  If they would distinguish between olb and ilb, the ilb would get a lot less.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      He didn't actually make the playoffs. We had several opportunities to clinch on our own and crapped the bed. We had to wait for Atlanta to win to get us in. We had the tie breaker in a poo division that had 3 teams finish 8-9.  If you go back and look at the games we played, we weren't a dominant offensive team under him as an OC. We beat the Jets 13-7 and barely beat the packers after they failed to convert multiple red zone trips. We relied heavily on converting 4th downs. DC was also extremely slow at recognizing trends in game and was really lacking with clock management.  Was there progress this year? Yes. But most of it was on the defensive side of the ball. Our offense was stagnant with a couple of exceptions. Any improvement from Bryce was minimal and he kept insisting on XL over Coker, and even RB distribution instead of going with the hot hand.  He may be building something, but I don't think we've seen enough to know what that is. It could go either direction. If he insists on being OC, then without a noticeable improvement, yes he needs to be on the hot seat like any OC would. The more jobs you take on the more you have to be judged on. I think he would have a longer leash if he hired a true OC and just focused in being HC.
