But it's about the clicks! There's no journalism anymore.  It's all hot takes and opinion pieces. 

I'm convinced there is a lane and opportunity for someone to cover the sport with dignity but they would have to put effort into learning the subject matter. They could get good answers if they asked informed questions.

If there is they are an adoration.  I remember when journalists were unbiased and sought out the truth and did honest investigation into their reporting.  Apparently journalism school has dropped that part of the curriculum from their degree requirements.

It's embarrassing listening to the questions they ask.  Mike Kaye was trying to dig in to why McCall didn't play and Reich is like "he did, pay attention" I used to hate Gantt but he's the only one who seems to be able to speak in complete sentences. Unlike Person for example, who was always like "can you say a few words about <insert subject>" Just so lazy.

Gotta make money and reporting the facts doesn't do that anymore. 😞

Those assholes. How am I going to get my episode of whiny beat reporters. 

i honestly just want to be able to hear what the press is asking the coaches and players. Most of the time we have to guess what they asked based on how the players and ocaches respond.

FYI... Sports journalism is entertainment journalism. Clicks are king. You can spend a month writing a long form insightful article and no one will read it. A 5 minute hit piece? That will have traction.

 

It's not the fault of the reporters, they have to publish what people want to see.

 

I blame the ever dwindling attention span of the public.

      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

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      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.
