Nice! That’s the spirit

(no one claimed that)

They almost certainly have. It was repeated on the broadcast probably 6 times. It's been said here since last year. Ickey was good when we were running well and were able to mix up the run and pass. When obvious passing downs come, he's toast. That should improve as he ages but for now, it's just not good, at all. 

As I'd said before, it's to be expected that he'd struggle and there is nothing wrong with that going into Year 2. However, he wasn't just beat against the Jets, he was run around with ease on a speed rush that left Bryce plastered. It should've been Roughing the Passer twice, by the rulebook, but they didn't call it for some reason, but it doesn't matter because the end result is the same.

Love the overreactions! Keep up the good work!

The mere mention of The Process causes people to turn into werewolves and bay at the moon, the earth to spin backwards, children to get possessed looks and continually cry "redrum, redrum," and politicians to tell the truth. 

You had me up till that last phrase 😕

The Saints and Falcons are better then last season.....don't know about Carolina. We may be the 3rd best team in the division.

Carr looked surgical against KC.  The entire offense was operating at a very high level for a preseason opener.

Gross over-reaction but...

Wow, they looked bad enough out there to make Rhule chuckle to himself.

We've got to do better than that on Friday. I know it's just the pre-season but if you can't get your guys who are fighting for their jobs and dreams to at least score 3 points... at home... Whew.

our social media team is cringe and our franchise should be focusing on winning a repairing their competitive image before making more poorly timed content, fluff pieces, and cringy attempts at hyping up players with a new aged approach.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
