I agree, but i dont believe his scheme is very aggressive in general.  I wasnt just talking about last year.

Both this year and thr year before with the broncos, he. Was dealing with depleted defenses missing major starters whom absolutely impact the defense, and the ability to be aggressive. 

You haven't seen enough of him with a healthy defense to say ANTHING DEFINITIVE about how he would normally call a defense.

Nope and I have nothing to do with his show or their station. It's just short content which I think is better than posts whining about Young.

I absolutely enjoy this show. It’s better than anything in the Charlotte market. Thank you for posting these. I actually called in to the show the day the hire was announced.

I got all fired up at first, and then I realized I did the same for Reich and Rhule. Let’s see it on the field on sundays this time please. 

It’s ok to be be fired up, Lobo. I do think Canales will be successful. The question is, “how long will it take?”

Yep, saw one mock where we traded back at 33 for 2nd round picks and thought that was great too. If there is a giant batch of WR's available (which almost every mock shows in R2) gamble and try and get two of them. Or get OL and WR.

This. One thing I’ve come to realize about the draft is, after the top 15-20 picks, It’s more about finding the right players to fit what you do. Look at the Rams this year, after trading away all of their top picks a few years back.

No, that's not what I'm saying.  I think we need a longer track record of being a good dude than 2 years because it appears he was still being a bad dude while he was in Seattle, which was 2 years ago.  It is not like he interviewed to run a local business, the Panthers are a huge, worldwide company.  

I'm a father with two kids and I can't imagine doing what he did and then writing a book about it.  His kids will have to deal with that book for the rest of their lives and don't deserve that.  He's a public figure and it is not like you and I writing a book that no one will read.  It is selfish behavior and I don't like it.  I know it is sports and no one will care as long as he wins.  

Is publishing a book where you publicize your lowest points in life for people like you to freely judge and scrutinize, “selfish behavior”? It seems like he’d have more to lose than to gain from that, and going directly against your self-interests seems quite contrary to “selfish behavior”.

    • I believe I just read somewhere that the Rams don't do Top 30 Visits. I mean, it makes sense from the standpoint of trying to keep information close to the vest.
    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
