Right now, it's just a roll of the dice as to whether any team has improved or collapsed with their free agency moves. They are just trying to read the tea leaves.

You never know when you have a Julio Jones pick-up that ends up just falling flat, or a Jake Delhomme signing that sends a nobody team to the Super Bowl.

We lost a couple of one year (or less) rentals, we picked up some linemen that are still capable of being steady for a few years down the road (barring some unforeseen injuries they may have got past the inspectors). 

On paper, it looks to me like we're moving ahead in the right way. An extension for DJ, a restructuring of CMC and a resigning of DJax all seem like good moves and an attempt to keep the band together. I like that and didn't expect it from Rhule and Co. I hope that we're all pleasantly surprised this year.

The OL is looking great, so I have a sickening feeling that somebody, or multiple somebodies, will get hurt before the season starts.  I admire the attempt they’ve made at fixing a glaring issue.  

Hey, stop that! This time we have players in their natural positions with good technique who know how to play the game. That'll eliminate the propensity of injuries. Don't jinx it. 

The Falcons are right where I want them to be with the Saints not far behind. 😎

      Jaycee LOCKDOWN Horn is due for a breakout year

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
