Yeah, I mean that just happens. We could get it wrong. We could take Stroud and get tears an Achilles or has some scandal where he gets jerked off behind Waffle House dumpsters in every city he travels to. We could take Young and then he retires to become a foot model in Paris. Or maybe he can't stay healthy due to repeated injuries. 

Some of the poo you just can't control. There is no such thing as a risk-less pick. At the end of the day, I am very comfortable taking either guy, despite my personal preference on the matter. 

But I don't doubt that we got plenty of people here that will immediately switch to hoping "their guy" is successful rather than the guy we picked, just so they can harp about it on an internet message board for some imaginary credibility points.

 

Isn't this place always like this. It never fails every time we get a certain player that is supposed to be an "ELITE" and doesn't turn out to be one.

To an extent but I do feel like it is getting worse. Fans seem to be increasing their desire to eat each other alive inside their own fanbase. It's so fuging strange.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
