No argument, but also "ouch" to losing after leading by almost 30 points 😣

I mean, it sucks but that was a 1 win team that has 80+ new players. It's fuging unbelievable what they are doing in the first place. Doesn’t mean it isn’t a bad loss but at least the national hype is dying down enough to where they aren't getting completely unrealistic expectations.

The hype is kinda the point.

No disrespect to Sanders, but he was being talked about as the second coming of Nick Saban waaaayyy too early. Now people are coming back down to earth.

I mean, if they win 7-9 games that is easily one of the best coaching performances of all time. No one has done anything close to what he is doing. I am not sure long term what his success will be but if he can get in that 7-9 win range it will be so clearly the most impressive coaching performance I have ever seen. There literally wouldn't be anything I can think of close to that in my 35+ years of watching college football.

      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.
