I think Olsen is tearing it up. He’ll probably improve technically, get slicker and more polished, but he is fresh and hitting it hard.

His game within the game stuff is the best thing going now. The route explanations and how things set up strategy or play design are better than I remember seeing for a while. 
I hope he doesn’t become irritating once the freshness wears off. I am almost there with Romo. He was fresh at first by a lot, now it’s meh.

Romo seems to have gotten full of himself and lazy.  Greg is very smart, seems to be a hard worker, and a fairly humble guy.  Don't think he will quit taking this seriously.  He seems very professional.

Looks like we're getting another year of Greg in the #1 announcer slot?

Good.
 

 

Brady is intimidated by  Olsen's competence. He is taking the year to practice. Would not surprise me if he decides to take another roll in 2024.

(I’m) going to take some time to really learn, become great at what I want to do … making sure I don’t rush into anything.”

He told “The Herd” that he plans to watch Fox’s lead broadcast team of Greg Olsen and Kevin Burkhardt call Sunday’s Super Bowl.

“I’ll be watching 50 percent watching the game and 50 percent listening to those two and hearing the amazing job they’re going to do along with the whole Fox Sports crew,” Brady said.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.

      Smitty on TMac

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
