I knew he was going to be a bust when they said he needed to get stronger.  Uh, the dude is 25, if it aint happened yet it sure as hell aint going to happen in the future.

Yeah, we could have had day 1 starters on the oline and we have to go into next year on another maybe if we are lucky guy...All the BPA believers need to see why BPA is a fantasy without positional value and needs mixed in. Our D needed a CB even when it was going to be solid but out dumpster fire of an oline gets no meaningful contributors. Huge fail by Fitts.

BPA strategy is fuging retarded and I have said so forever.  Evaluate better.  That said picking Slater would have been a reach.  Oh yeah, how is that working out for us now?

BPA relies on all starting positions being filled, in this case by Darnold, Elf and Erving...That is a complete failure in personnel evaluation. With years of tape to back that up.

Slater was never a reach, all they draft hype by the media is almost completely entertainment value of BS opinions and nothing else. The failure was thinking we were good to go and build a better D by ignoring our offense. Need can be dangerous but ignoring or just being woefully wrong at evaluations is just as bad.

The LT literally doesnt hit anyone all play.  He kindof reaches out a couple of times but thats it.  Maybe that is common in a pass play but I kindof doubt it.

You're right now that I watch it again. 

The whole line shift on the play is weird.

Actually, if you think about it, is it more likely the whole line screwed up with that shift left, or that Sam screwed up and rolled right thinking it was a different play?

Bootlegs like that frequently have the line flowing like that to simulate a run and get the DL and LBs flowing that direction, creating separation between them and the crossing receiver. That appears to be a smart/disciplined play from the DE who stayed home or perhaps was even schemed to be watching for exactly that type of action on that play.

      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.
