Jarvis has developed as I expected and is on pace for 30 goals on the wing this season.... he's a goal scorer who plays 100% in both ends and a natural C I'm guessing Unger Sorum forces his way in to be an impact W and Jarvis gets a shot as a C 

I think it’s pretty obvious Rod is planning on putting Jarvis in Staal’s spot when he decides to retire or at least taking a hard look at that potential right now.

True, although I think that line would become the 2nd line with Jarvis on it.... I think Jarvis will be a 35+ goal PPG center man he's a prototype player for Rod scoring ability, good defensively 120% effort 100% of the time....

Pesces eye roll on the fight was perfect. It’s not often you get a fight in Raleigh and the refs were right there for it and told Pesce to gtf out the way. 

If Lemieux is on the ice it's not Pesces job to fight I saw a bunch of Twitter posters "why didn't pesce do anything" Lemieux is a legit enforcer who actually adds some fourth line scoring when we trashed the Rags None of them were trying to fight or get egregiously dirty with Aho (despite saying they would after our first game) have to think that's because of Lemieux.... didn't want him Trashing Trouba.

I have a really hard time seeing at least right now how we add Necas back in over Lemieux. Lemieux has been solid solid in all areas when he’s allowed by Rod.

Lemieux will be cheap, definitely want him back IMO it will all depend on what happens with Pesce and Turbo, this is the first decent season Turbos had in a while and when Necas is "on" he's a game breaker..... heck just having him for 3-3 OT adds and extra 3-6 points a year....  

I don't think they let Necas walk young 70+ point high potential guys don't grow on trees....

If I had to bet I think Turbo walks and Marty is resigned..... and Unger-Sorum moves up.

I honestly think it’s all contingent on a cup and if rod re-signs(I expect him to… Daniel’s might have to go though, we’ll see what dundon is feeling). Aho will want TT back so that might factor into things as well. Must signs in my opinion are: Jarvis, Noesen, Chatty. Don’t forget about Pono either, he’s due his chance. So is Suzuki but that dude can just not stay healthy.

Haven't forgotten about them, Pono and Suzuki will need to work in on the fourth line, I just meant Unger-Sorum will likely force his way into a top 6 spot.

Noeson and Chatty are must resigns IMO. Jarvis is a RFA so he isn't going anywhere.

 

I'd let Pesce walk and I just have a feeling Turbo walks unless he takes a hometown discount type deal or settles for a shorter prove your back productive deal.

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      You kinda gloss over this, but this is really at the crux of this whole argument....which Flacco are we talking here?  You bring up that he played with 3 different teams but ignore the fact that his performance varied quite a bit from team to team. 2024 Colts: 65.3% completion, 12 TDs, 7 INTs, 220.1 YPG, 7.1 Y/A, 90.5 rating 2025 Browns: 58.1% completion, 2 TDs, 6 INTs, 203.8 YPG, 5.1 Y/A, 60.3 rating 2025 Bengals: 63.4% completion, 12 TDs, 3 INTs, 290.6 YPG, 6.8 Y/A, 96.2 rating 2025 Flacco (Browns + Bengals): 61.1% completion, 14 TDs, 9 INTs, 252.0 YPG, 6.1 Y/A, 80.8 rating vs. 2025 Bryce: 62.7% completion, 14 TDs, 7 INTs, 196.2 YPG, 6.2 Y/A, 86.0 rating I bolded the comparison that I think objectively makes the most sense...just simply comparing the two QBs for the entire season.  Otherwise you'd be cherry-picking Flacco's time with the Bengals and ignoring his earlier stint with the Browns, which sounds an awful lot like people cherry-picking Bryce's stats in the second half of last season. So again, which Flacco?  Basically the only thing consistent with Flacco across each of these teams was his W/L records: 2-4, 1-3, and 1-4 respectively.  I'd say if we're comparing each version of him to Bryce this year: Colts Flacco > 2025 Bryce, Browns Flacco <<< 2025 Bryce, Bengals Flacco >> 2025 Bryce, and 2025 Flacco < 2025 Bryce - Flacco this year only beats out Bryce on YPG but in part because he throws significantly more passes (almost 60 YPG more than Bryce, despite a lower Y/A which is pretty telling) .  Flacco is maybe the most apt case study about how important a QB's circumstances are to his success.  He was easily a bottom 3 QB in Cleveland and arguably top 10-15 in Cincinnati...and we're talking about the same player from the same season.  All that happened was taking him from one team and plopping him onto another team; nothing inherently changed about him as a QB.  Funny enough I think that's all that one dude on here was trying to say when he made that long poorly-received post after having an epiphany working for PFF behind the scenes or w/e.  That it's largely short-sighted to just try to evaluate QBs in a vacuum when there are so many variables at play that ultimately decide whether a QB is successful or not.   I think Bryce has been mediocre at best this season and I'm ready to move on regardless of how he ends this season - I'm highly skeptical a strong end to the season will carry over into next year considering how last year ended and this year began.  I would certainly agree that he's a bottom-third QB this year.  I just don't understand you scoffing indignantly at anyone holding the opinion that Bryce has had a better season than Flacco...I can only assume it's recency bias.  Or maybe you know the stats don't support you, which is why you're conjuring up the god-forsaken arbitrary "eyeball test" which is the kinda thing people in here were saying about Fields for years, pinky promising that he really truly was a franchise QB despite his awful stats.  Perhaps it's called the eyeball test because I roll my eyes anytime I hear someone bring it up seriously as an argument.

      A question no one is asking about Bryce and The Panthers

      By CRA · Posted

      CMC said he expected to play his career here.  He didn't think he would be traded.  Carolina decided they wanted to trade him.  He picked here he wanted to go.   But we dumped him.  For largely peanuts.   But we dumped DJ Moore and he never had a blood and guts game.   So it's never a guarantee.

      I have many people telling me CMC was blindsided and heartbroken by the trade, but that's not how I remember everything going down.  49ers are pretty wounded right now on defense so if our offense can sustain drives and score, that'd be the difference maker. Their offense? I'm not scared of CMC.
