I don't think it's completely out of the question.  Are the Falcons and Saints that much better than us?  I've seen a couple different ESPN folks picking us as a wild card team since the NFC is "weaker" this year.

Edited to add that I'm assuming the Bucs have a tough time with that patchwork OL.

Yeah, TB12 is not used to getting hit. He may rethink retirement when that starts happening.

1:  Let's hope so, but be plenty prepared for us to stink.

2:  How on Earth do these people have jobs that pay them money?  I cannot for the life of me get through 5 minutes of "sports talk" radio or television.  It's absolutely terrible and I have no idea how people can consume it, and actually do the job every day.

I like Brandt, but it's fair to ask how he got an NFL Network job when his previous gig was as a soap opera actor 😕

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
