Even if Hackett is a complete dud and a goof, they can move on from him next year if they want.  They are absolutely stuck with a washed Russell Wilson though lol.  No refunds.

Yeah looks like earliest it would be practical to release him is 2025, when it will only* be an $18M dead cap hit, instead of paying him $55M lol. 2024 he's getting $35M no matter what

For all the hate about us committing $18.9 million on a 1 year extension for Darnold without seeing him play for us, it's nothing compared to the $250 million the Broncos gave Wilson before he had barely stepped foot in Denver.

I was in total shock at Fitt picking up that 5th year option on Sam. We couldn't have waited to see him play because the offer was time sensitive, but why make the offer at all? What had Sam accomplished? What about his play appeared worthy of that kind of money? I was asking these questions at the time. I said Sam was a proven loser. Fitt looked at it as a cost saving measure for when Sam blew up and solidified himself as our franchise QB. We'd have him locked into a great deal for us. That's how off they were with the situation. Unreal.

And sure enough another Fitt blunder just occured in passing on 2 first round picks and a second round pick for Brian Burns. PFF has Burns scored at 48.8 grade in run defense, and 68.2 grade in pass rush min 200 snaps. 

The good news is the NFL rewards massive failure with high draft picks. If we can land CJ (aka Geno Smith 2.0) and he pans out we'll be in a great position.

      Rico Dowdle is an absolute dawg

      Aggressive runner, hits the hole fast, and runs angry.  Just a few yards shy of the single game record for the team.  Absolutely phenomenal performance.  If the gameplan hadn't become weirdly pass heavy for the 3rd and first half of the 4th quarters he might have been flirting with 300.

      Why is Canalas so pass happy?

      I felt that way before the season started, but I'm sorry, he's already proven he isn't that guy, I don't need to learn anything more about him. He threw the ball 30 times today and could only throw for 198 yards, which was his 2nd best yardage game this year, he's just not the guy. Which means this season has already moved onto the 2nd most important thing going into this season after evaluating Bryce, and that's developing our best young players. You don't do that by only throwing 8 of your 30 passes to your best player who is still only a rookie.  Pepper him with targets and help develop him so he's ready to take a huge leap next year when we get a real HC and QB to get him the ball.

      Any well functioning team benches Bryce

      Every win comes from a non-sustainable source.  As CRA mentioned, Penix absolutely imploding against ATL, and then today, defense finally clicked and looked the best they’ve looked in a long time (and still have up 24 points lol) and Rico ran for 200+ yards.  We’re not going to get that every week, especially against good teams, which neither Miami or ATL are.  Both MIA and ATL are bad teams and Bryce still couldn’t get it together.  The defense (and team) had to overcome 14 points because of his turnovers again.  That was not even an average QB performance.  We are winning in spite of him.
