That sucks.  Shoulder surgery isn't good.  Those things are never quite the same.  But at least he doesn't' throw a ball for a living.

No, but he does have to throw offensive lineman and TE's around to get to the qb. It's kinda important.

Bet money it's a labrum. Very common LB injury. If he needs surgery, I'm guessing he tried to let it heal on its own and it didn't bounce back like he wanted. Shouldn't be a long term issue, especially using NFL surgeons on the team's dime

Wow. Sucks for the guy. With what we have dealt with on the Jonathan Brooks front that's the last thing we needed in the first round though. Hopefully that all works out for him.

Ideally after he had a disappointing rookie season and the Falcons trade him to us for peanuts. LOL

And this is a guy in college who would lose to TEs sometimes.

I was never high on him, but hate that injury is the reason he slid. Sucks for him.

      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.
