We need to give him weapons, right now the only reliable weapons he has in the passing game are Smith, Goodson, and Rosario you cant expect a rookie to come in and do great when receivers are running the wrong route and not getting separation off the line. That is why getting Vincent Jackson is not a bad idea for us. A third round pick is well worth this guy.

You cant say that getting VJ is a bad idea

it still would have been nice to have another vet WR in there who knew what he was doing. the lack of decent targets is going to hold anyone back, but a good QB can make bad WRs look mediocre and mediocre ones look good.

at this point i'd be happy with a mediocre WR across from smith, esp. if clausen can use his TEs and RBs effectively.

It all comes down to the O-Line.

O-Line playing like they are men equals D Will and J Stew being able to do their thing.

O-Line playing like they are men equals giving your rookie time to throw the ball and Steve time to find an opening.

Nothing else matters if they don't pick it up, and pick it up fast. They have been the biggest disappointment in the first two games.

You hit the nail on the head!If you have no o-line,you need a dog killer,look at Philly!

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
