I think it's lucking out on the QB's personally. First the Texans went from trash to playoffs 2 years in a row and now Commanders... It's not about a 7 year rebuild to even achieve a winning record, It's more about the teams actually playing hard if they think their qb is worth a poo and then staying healthy, and then once you get to the Chiefs, having the refs on your side lol.

Nah. The Commanders were never that awful of a roster.

Some of the same core from last season are on the Commander’s roster this season. For example, Brian Robinson (RB), Terry McLaurin (WR), Cosmi (RG), Wylie (RT), Allen (DT) and Payne (DT), Wagner (LB) and Martin (S). There’s other carryover too. So they were never a roster devoid of talent, it was more a case they didn’t have a QB and one could argue they were not well coached. If they had this coaching staff and Jayden Daniels on their 2023 roster, then they would have had more than 4 wins. So quick turnarounds can happen if a team drafts well and has a good coaching staff.

I stand by my comments, gentlemen.

What comments exactly? The one where you damn with faint praise?

"While I agree that there are better candidates to bring that here, let’s look at why Quinn could be that guy to at least stop the bleeding"

Or the one where you make no assertion whatsoever about his potential for success and list every possible outcome?

"Whether he turns out to be a successful McCarthy style retread, the Defensive version of Frank Reich, or a transitional guy who hovers at .500 is yet to be seen."

The Texans and Commanders HC's are good coaches that have 2 really good QBs and 2 really good OC's. Their problem will be if the OC's leave, it will take a dip, they always do. That's why Tepper wanted an OC for HC. If Bryce turned out good, the long term relationship is key. The exception was Brady in NE but they didn't win every year like look at KC with Mahomes and Reid. Even Peyton Manning had the same OC for over 10 years.

Who is Alex Bryant and does he know what our roster looked like at the  start of this year?

Slowik has not been good at all this year and I wouldn't be surprised if they fired him.   They had the most third and longs in the league this season.

The people not accepting how terrible our roster is/was are just confounding to me. 

It was so insanely obvious before the season but those of us saying it got insane push back from everyone thinking we had a great draft and offseason. I could never understand that level of delusional optimism. 

It still remains the worst roster in franchise history. Always was going to be.

Yeah, idk. I just wanted to revisit this tbh.

    • I liked Sanders field reading abilities in general but his ceiling is fairly low and his shenanigans as a pro are, quite frankly, bizarre.  I don't think he is doing himself any favors by being a distraction while also being buried on the depth chart. Don't get me wrong, the media would attempt to make him a distraction regardless but it's not smart to feed into it when you aren't having a role at all. This can also be said of XL, BTW. We are no stranger to this. It's a lot easier to excuse Cam dressing like a deleted scene Harry Potter character at press conferences when he is looking like a man among boys on the football field. 
    • I hear Huddlers throwing things similar about Sanders whenever his name comes up, but to put it bluntly, we don't know that to be true. What we do know is that plenty of Browns fans thought that Sanders had the best camp out of the bunch, notwithstanding not being given the opportunity to play with the ones. What has been reported is that Dillon Gabriel is Stefanski's guy, and Andrew Berry thought that Sanders should be prioritized (even if it meant that he would eventually trade Sanders due to Sanders having more value). The fact that many Browns fans preferred (and prefer now) Sanders, and that there was a split---or difference of opinion between Stefanski and Berry, isn't really up for debate. It's true.  What this all means, at the end of the day, is that we don't know how Sanders compares to Hooker or anyone else because he really hasn't had an opportunity to play for whatever reasons. 
    • I don't think with a roster this bad we should be spamming picks at subpar QB's for development purposes. When the roster is a little more fleshed out, I would fully support that. Also, with our persistent evaluation problems, I can only imagine who we would have likely overdrafted in the past few years.
