Hot Takes Immediately After the Game

I mean, I haven't read the thread yet, but I'd say that Dan Morgan and company should have flaming hot seats right about now. All that money to second-rate players in order to fool people into thinking we were actually better. Wharton, Brown III, and Moehrig were overpaid. 

And all of you talking like DB is untouchable, think again. He's about as untouchable as Burns.

We fuging suck against the run. Evero's scheme doesn't maximize efficiency against the run. The Evero experiment has produced nothing but bad results.

Unfortunately it’s called the “loser’s tax”. We simply have to overpay our free agent acquisitions because the team is down bad and the league and its players know it.

Did anyone else see the FOX halftime crew making fun of our soft zone coverage on Travis Hunter?

Evero needs to go.

I thought they were making fun of Travis Hunter for basically just existing on that defensive rep vs the TMac slant.  Hunter was basically standing and watching 

This

They were making a joke about what kind of defense Hunter was playing, 100%

Canales isn't going anywhere, he's going to get a shot with a new QB from the 2026 draft or a vet free agent. 

 

Bryce is done

The defense still doesn't have much past the dline. Not much to say about the LB or edge players. Secondary minus Horn is bleh at best.

In all honesty, I'm not ready to panic after this game. Unlike last year's season opener there were some positives, particularly TMac.

1. The defense is horrible, but we knew that going in. Still, it's time to put the Evero era out of its misery.

2. I still think it was a mistake to trade Adam Thielen; with Coker hurt we now have no reliable WR after TMac. XL couldn't crack the starting lineup in the UFL and Renfrow doesn't look ready to get significant snaps.

3. Austin Corbett was awful, which is weird because I don't recall bad snaps being an issue with him last year. Was it a one-game issue or something bigger?

4. Bryce... well it's not looking good. But when XL is one of your starting WRs and the center is snapping the ball 5 feet to your right every other play that can't help. But this is year 3; no more excuses. A former #1 overall pick has to overcome this stuff.

5. I still can't fathom how we didn't do more to upgrade the linebacker position this offseason. Rozeboom is as bad as I feared and Wallace isn't much better despite being a better athlete.

I think we may be thinking of different things. The play I'm talking about was on Hunter's 1st quarter catch.

No, you’re just mistaken

They were showing Hunter highlights on offense and then went to the one of him on defense playing a charmin soft zone on T-Mac.

The guys in the studio didn’t realize they were them showing a defensive clip of Hunter and were laughing about the soft coverage “we” were playing on him, and then they realized it and corrected themselves.

They were joking and saying something like “what would you call that coverage?  Would that even be considered a soft zone?”  

And then something else I don’t remember.  Then they realized it was a clip of him on defense and not our coverage on him.

I think the list of player needs is in the 20s, Im ttooooo upset to make it.....

The list is long indeed. So much for wr depth huh? The defense is still putrid. The coaches were getting out-coached all day. The entire team seemed lethargic and out of sync. And that's only part of it.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
