I am. It was obvious that we weren’t a SB contender but that we had a lot of young core talent. The amount of cap we wasted would have made keeping Reddick and Moore and Burns and Chinn really easy. The comp picks and draft position are all improved. The QB situation might even have been solved way cheaper. A smart rebuilding team doesn’t throw away $30M for two years after watching Anderson fade in the second half last year without seeing how he plays this year.

Oh well, it happened and. It looks like we will likely lose some of our young core because of these decisions and likely some coaching changes. Of course QB spot is about as unanswered as 2010. Unfortunately, we’ve already won 4 games so no Cam coming to our rescue. 

^^^this…

I hope we’re all ready for how potentially f***ed we could be in the near future. Prepare to lose young talent like DJ Moore, Brian Burns, Donte Jackson, Yetur Gross Matos, and Jeremy Chinn. I can honestly see us losing over 2/3 of these players in 2 years.

It's so much more exciting watching Fields play tonight than any Darnold game. Even if Fields isn't doing great yet you can sense the teams excitement of having a future franchise QB

Fields is playing 100x better than anything darnold has shown this year. We are really going to regret that horn pick.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
