Pickett, Corall, and Willis are NO better than Sam ... this year. That's a fact. What can they turn into? No one knows. I don't want that gamble. I'd rather pick from a better pool next season where ... you may actually know. The question is, will we be inept enough to have a great pick in 2023. All these new signings point to no. Really tough spot for the FO.

Mediocre guys don’t normally go 4300/42/7 in the ACC. Just sayin….I’m not even that high on him but he’s a better prospect than Howell by just about every single metric and analyst. Not just me.

It literally just happened this season. A career mediocre college QB came back as the oldest guy on the field now surrounded by an above average college team in a down ACC and it all combined to make him look like something that he's not. It's an illusion. Someone is gonna take the bait and way overdraft the guy. It's probably gonna be us.

The same could be said for Joe Burrow.

I have to disagree.. He did that 1 season..

Howell was doing those types of numbers for 3 years.. Even in a down year "regression" he had 30+tds..

Howell had one of the worst college OLs I've seen in recent years this year and only one legit receiving target. It's real obvious when these analysts have only watched games from this season. Of course he was one read and bolt. He had to be.

We have 4 years of evidence on Sam he is who he is a trash QB! Rhule isn't gonna go into this season on one of the hottest seats in the NFL with Sam starting!

If I were in Rhule's situation I wouldn't want to either 😂😂

No, but thread summary to save your time:

- Doom and gloomers flip out

- LG does LG things (yawn)

Im not gonna disagree with you. But what's making him panic? Is he afraid of getting hit? Is the scheme too complicated? Has he lost his confidence? 

I think some guys just have inherit greatness? Some need to be nutured just a bit. I wouldn't care if Sam was off team in 2022. That said, I  still think the right coach could probably get a lot more out of him than Adam Gase, Joe Brady, and Matt Rhule did. 

 

His nature. People are either calm, cool, and collected in pressure situations or they're not. I firmly believe that isn't a coachable trait. You have it or you don't.

      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.
