I'm betting on McAdoo. Failure is having to start Darnold because he couldn't get Corral ready to play day one.

I could be wrong but I don't think McAdoo will fail us. 

 

#1 on my hopeful list. McAdoo being our savior. lol

 

I would care if he had Corall come live with him. Stay in that kids pocket.

People seem to be confusing OC Ben McAdoo with HC Ben McAdoo.  He’s a poo HC but he knows offense.  I think he’ll be quite solid for us

I remember when I was calling for DJ to live with Smitty during the off-season. Just soak up everything your fellow spirit animal knows.

He's doing good but he could use that edge.

Oh, I believe DJ has some dog in him. I just don't think the dog bites. He's more a house dog. We need that junkyard dog.

 

I just don't think you can become as good as DJ has, without some dog in you. But man, if he takes a step up? He could become special.

yet his HC tenure is stained largely by the fact his offense was painfully predictable and bad.

I think you dont even need quality, just decent/average and panthers would be a dangerous team. 

*provided the young defensive reach their potential and became a TO machine. Plus CMC stayed healthy and solved red zone woes.

I do feel the ST group will win a couple games this year, while not losing any.

I truly admire your commitment to your cause. The excitement level around here is rising. You've made it your personal mission to make sure folks don't get too excited.

 

I usually root for the underdog, so I guess I should root for you.

You just described a young team. Which we are. So you see a bright future? As long as we don't wait too long for that QB that is?

 

Pretty much how I see it. A good QB and we can kick that door down. Get some experience, and full speed ahead.

TBD. We improved the offensive line but the group will need time to gel and we need to see how our depth holds up too. Whichever QB starts will have weapons no doubt. The other side of the ball is where things get iffy for me. Horn is promising but he is basically a rookie all over again after missing most of last season. Henderson is still an unknown at best and Donte Jackson had a rough go of it last season and needs a bounce back year. At LB beyond Shaq we need someone to step forward in a big way. We also need another pass rusher if I'm being honest. Burns still has plenty to prove as a young DE and he definitely needs someone on the other end taking care of business. Chinn is good we hope he takes another step. It's hard to shake the sight of our defense being ran over and pushed around last year I'm going to need to see some games in preseason to feel better about where this roster is at. We've talked ourselves up before camp in the past only to be brought back down to Earth. August will tell us what we need to know.

I mean, getting hype about Ben McAdoo shouldn’t really be a thing the way I look at it.  Getting hype about McAdoo really speaks more about where the current leadership has taken us prior to his arrival.

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
