pretty funny...especially assault #23.  Falcons board melting

@TheToddNewberg
So to recap, in the past 5 days the Atlanta Falcons have…
-> Restructured Matt Ryan for more cap space
-> answered a phone call from Deshaun Watson
-> became his 23rd assault 
-> lost franchise QB Matt Ryan and ate over 40M in dead cap (see above)
-> Acquired Marcus Mariota

I have a hard time imagining Matt Rhule taking a "project" when he has no guarantee of being here beyond this season.

So you are saying smokescreen or Rhule thinks he can pull off a successful season.  Even Matt Rhule isn't dumb enough to think this is a playoff team with a rookie QB.

I think Howell could be the best of the bunch when all is said and done.  He has many of the same skills.  I am not a good evaluator of QB talent.  Some of my highlights:

1. I laughed at KC when they drafted Mahommes.

2. I thought Hurney's visit to Oregon's pro day to watch Herbert was a smokescreen (since the only QB from Oregon who was ever worth a damn was Dan Fouts)

3.  I thought Josh Allen was a bust waiting to happen.

4. Back in the day, I could not decide between Ryan Leaf and Manning--I grew up a Colt fan.

So my eye for QB talent is abysmal.

So you're telling me your not applying for Mel Kiper's job.  LOL  Than again you probably could do better than Mel Kiper.

I just have this gut feeling whoever takes Howell is going to have a good QB.  Last year at Carolina he had zero help (as compared to 2020).  It's hard to replace 4 NFL caliber players (2 WR and 2 RB) in one season.  After 2020 many had him as the top prospect going into 2021.  

I'll be interested to see how much his stock rises, if at all, at his Pro Day on 28 March.

I got this off the Carolina page.  Howell working out for his Pro Day.

Pickett is almost universally considered the most pro ready quarterback in the draft class.

Add that to the fact that he has history with Matt Rhule and I think a serious possibility emerges.

      Strength of Schedule

      By chknwing · Posted

      I'm looking at the schedule and I see a 10+win season easy.  I think Carolina goes undefeated in the division.  I also believe that the Bears, Bengals, Lions, Browns, Steelers are very winnable.  Revenge game with phillips and the eagles could be a win.  Honestly only 2 games I see as chalking up a L to off the bat is the Seahawks and Broncos.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?
