Only went to about five minutes of the game since the offers on the street were poo for my tickets... walked in with Steve Smith and his wife. Never seen anybody walk with as much swagger as that man... geez.

Saw some guy with his kid heading for the upper levels, so I just gave him my tickets so he could go sit in the lowers and ran home to watch the rest of the game.

King T, we know you love Jackson, it's OK, you are a homer and it's fine, every team needs them. But there IS a reason everyone ships this guy off. Don't tell me the constant bricks and turnovers and whining at the other end of the court does't happen. Yes a better PG would help but be honest, in the regular season Felton wasn't that bad and Jax was still doing stupid things like that. I'm not saying he didn't help us and probably get us to the playoffs, he had a really good game 1 out of every 3 or 4 games and that did help us. I'm saying he can't be our go-to guy, we need someone else and if it means dealing him to get that something else, we should do it.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
