I like Eric and wish him nothing but the best.  Having said that, he does a whole lot of rambling with a five alarm firehose worth of cliches and platitudes in this video.   

We might be a little spoiled based on what we've been getting from our coaching staff over the last few days.

 

 

 

 

Did I just say that? 😳

Bieniemy feels like Rivera's version of Ben McAdoo. A head coach feeling significant pressure to bring in a "rock star" to jumpstart the offense.

I feel for my boy Sam Howell. I think it's gonna be a poo show in Washington. Shine through the shade, man. It's all you can do.

Yeah, the crapper teams are evolving.  Next year, the bottomfeeders could be a different sight:

WAS, TB, NO, TEN are all primed for a nice crash.  May throw NE in that as well.

The idea of trading for Love for like a 4th-5th is really not a bad one in the slightest.  I wouldn't bank on that being a QB solidifying move, but he could be worthy of a shot.  Still though, want Stroud or Young.

It's almost another Sam/Baker move though. You trade picks away for him, and have to pretty much immediately pick up his 5th year option for next year without really knowing if he can have any kind of sustained success

Yeah, doesn't leave the best taste in the mouth but he looked pretty quality when thrown in this past year.  Again, def wanna draft.

What a weird dude....he really referred to himself in third person...

Had a chance to listen to this on the way back from an appointment today. Wasn't planning to but got intrigued after reading your comment.

Yeah... 😕

He unironically refers to himself in third person something close to half a dozen times over the course of the presser. Between that and other things, I could definitely see where he might put some people off.

I'd say the biggest reason for the "odd vibe" that you and others have mentioned Is that it sounds like he's absolutely convinced he's much much smarter than you and so he needs to talk down to you just a little.

It was definitely a contrast from what we got here.

About thirty seconds into hearing both Thomas Brown and Duce Staley, I felt like I'd happily (hell, eagerly) run through a wall for either of them. With Bieniemy, I think if I werr one of his players I'd be kind of quietly nodding my head and saying "Sure, coach" while wondering whether or not this was actually gonna work out.

My two cents...

Few notes from Detroit...

So wait, the Lions want more what they saw on the defensive side of the ball last year?

Well...good luck with that 😕

Also...

Brockers was drafted 14th overall in the same draft as Andrew Luck, RG3, Trent Richardson (yikes 😬), Ryan Tannehill, former Panthers Stephon Gilmore, Bruce Irvin, Matt Kalil and a certain middle linebacker who retired a few years back.

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
