You don't know that. They have brought in too many pass catchers to run the ball that much. It will be as close to a 50/50 split as possible.  The opponents will have more to do with it than them trying to hide Young. If you haven't noticed the run game was complete ass. You have to be able to run the ball at will to consistently win in this league. 

We signed two of the best guards in the league to put next to two of the best run blocking tackles in the league. If the run game isn't substantially better this year then Imma complete for thinking it will be.

Those guards are great pass blockers also. I'm with you on the running game. They need to get the running game going to open up the passing game.

The only problems is while Chuba runs hard, he has zero talent. Miles looks completely washed with no burst. Brooks needs to play from down 1 if healthy

If Young sucks in 2024, his career is done.

If Young can't at least play average, then little QBs of the present and future might as well kiss dreams of being in the NFL "goodbye." Sure, there may be what people consider outliers,  like Russ and Murray, but Wilson and Murray aren't exactly little guys. Young is the test case.

Or some could see the talented class ahead of time.  Will they all pan out? Of course not, but when you have 6 guys drafted in the top 12 picks, that means it was loaded draft.  Teams didn't just grab a QB because they needed one.  It wasn't a case of impulse shopping in the check out line.

It means teams have gotten lazy and desperate when it comes to drafting QBs

If he sucks again and the stands are empty by week 5 they pull him. He will ride the pine. Tepper will not be embarrassed again. Tepper will be on the sideline with a headset calling plays by week 6. Dan will be running water to players and bringing them towels by week 8 if we suck again. Coach C will be so rattled he won't come out of the locker room.

      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.
