JStew liked this tweet from CJ. Could just be agreeing, but could also be a sign of things to come. đź‘€

there’s a bunch of players  on this roster that neither know or care to know what and why this is so.

 

it’s a team full of mercenaries, and the worst part is that I don’t even mean the outside acquisitions. Those guys actually do seem to care. Anderson, Reddick, Gilmore. Those guys fight hard. 

its the in house guys that all seem to be going through the motions and collecting a paycheck.

There’s no identity.

We looked better last year because we had an actual, functioning NFL offense last year.  Turns out, Teddy was not the problem and we probably should have just kept him.  Hindsight is a bitch sometimes. 

Honestly? Coaching was better last year.  We hung with playoff teams, super bowl teams. Teddy could run the offense competently but he is so heavily limited that I get moving on from him. But we double downed on the stupidity after him. If we had drafted fields instead of trading a fuging 2nd rounder for Darnold we’d actually have a little bit of hope right now.

I see moving on from Teddy IF there is a better option available.  Obviously Sam Darnold and the Ghost of Cam Newton are NOT better options.  We just need to draft a QB and go from there.  Unless we magically trade the farm for Watson, Russell Wilson or Aaron Rodgers there is not going to be anybody else worth the resources involved via trade.  We gotta just draft our guy.  Pickett will probably be available when we pick.

    • The reset worked with proton.me.. wouldn’t work with my Gmail, Yahoo or Verizon email accounts 
    • Wish they started at 5:30 or 6 at the latest so I can watch it. I have to be in bed by start time.
    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.
