Thankful for the “neat” factor if anything 

Yeah I couldn't get excited, and didn't even read the story when we signed him. It would've been very cool about 2 years ago. This year we're so deep at WR you know it would take a lot for him to stay on anything more than Practice Squad (which is still an amazing accomplishment in life I should say).

His dad dealt with a fair number of injuries in camp or early season.

I think it was more of us having to start our fifth string running back as to why we didn’t get to the superbowl

No chance we were going into Seattle that year in the NFC Championship and beating the Seahawks. Maybe if we had managed to get the #1 seed and hosted the game, but people tend to forget how good that Seahawks team was in 2005.

We had no real offensive threat outside of 89. Even with moose,  we had no rushing attack.  Seattle in Seattle that year.  Wouldn't have mattered anyways.

Foster was great that year. I remember him going off vs Atlanta in the last game of the season and vs the Giants in the wild card round.

      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.
