So is he staying on the right side or moving to the left?  What are we doing with Corbett if this dude stays on the right side?

That is my question, and from what I saw by watching his dolphin video, you may want him on the right side.  Here is my concern:

The new DL schemes are designed to put pressure on the QB by stunting and setting up LBs etc.  Campen was just not current.  Our OL looked lost.  You can tell when an OL is lost when his head moves from side to side.  I saw it with Kugbula and Silatolu--predicting both would bust.  When I watched the 2023 OL, I saw it with Bozeman, Ekwonu, and Corbett.  (Not going to mention the backups).  They were confused.  \

A new OL coach is going to be huge--Campen sucked--I think he was resting on his reputation.  Not a smart man in terms of adjustments.

Having said that, Corbett really sucked during his 4 games before getting injured. 

Was Bozeman unable to call schemes?  That would explain a lot.

While all that is true, Corbett has a chunk of money just to be riding the pine.  That was my point.  Maybe he takes a pay cut to stay?

Corbett tore his ACL and MCL in back to back seasons, and looked terrible last season before reinjuring the knee after taking longer to come back than expected. In what world should he be relied upon to do anything other than ride the pine?

ESPN article said the only position he hasn’t played along the OL is LG. Expect him to be on the right. Forget Austin Corbett exists.

We cut him or force a pay cut.  Those are the options.  Making the money is and sitting on the bench is not an option.

      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.
