Sometimes an athlete can put things together years later into his career. I grew up an avid fan of MLB history. I was always intrigued by Sandy Koufax. His W-L as a Dodger pitcher was 36-40 in his first SIX SEASONS.

Over the next 6 seasons he went 129-47 and he won 3 CY Young Awards. Sometimes things just click later for some people than others. 🤔

 

That's great and all..

But I still would choose the player that "consistently" performs at a high level over the guy who did it 1 year..

If you have a company you're not hiring the guy who had 1 good month of sales over the guy who consistently produces sales every month...

With that argument why not put Darnold back out there with the improved (in theory) O-line?

Apparently that's not an option.  All I'm doing at this point is predict what I expect to happen with what's going on.

The trouble I'm having is trying to figure out what the hell is going on.

it'll all be much clearer when they eventually fire Rhule and we can be good or suck for obvious reasons. Hard to solve problems when the HC is creating numerous ones to hide his deficiencies

      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.
