I have never understood all the hate for Trgo around here. Granted, the defensive has certainly played more aggressively this year which is more enjoyable to watch but they have NOT been more effective and by any measure, this was not their best year. That would be 2005 when Footballoutsiders.com had them ranked as the #1 defense. You can hate him all you want but you can't hide from the fact that he did have a couple of really good years.

I think Trgo's major fault was he let Fox walk all over him which eventually created problems. I DO NOT think Meeks has that problem and I would venture to guess that Pepper's problems last year had to do with Fox and not Trgo. I also believe Peppers enjoys playing for Meeks and will stay as long as he knows Meeks will be here.

Could be wrong but Peppers did say he would have more to say in a couple of days and that would be about the time when the coaching staff "uncertainties" should be cleared up.

the funniest thing about the trgovac hate was watching people try to rationalize the team's defensive success while he was the DC

"well you see it's the tide of support and the remnants of del rio that um, uh, hey look at the kitten."

I understand he had a good year here and there.. but I don't understand how you connect the dots when you say Fox walked all over him and that Meeks doesn't have that problem?

And considering '05 was quite a while ago... Meeks has improved an aspect in our game that was seriously lacking for quite a while now.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
