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.

    • That should have been this year. Tough to sell to anyone worth getting when this crew is going into year 3 on the hot seat. I still think keeping Evero will sink them all after last year's showing. If/when he is scapegoated they need to show improvement or it's likely to be so eone else's problem next year. I do agree in principle tho, it all should have happened after last year's problems. 
    • I've listened to some things that have calmed the "Bryce was flat out terrible" to just "he was really bad" in Week 1. It's Year 3 though, and that shouldn't be the barometer. I've got 1% hope left for Bryce, and that's just blind homerism coming out.  I'm scared that as much emphasis as the team places on advanced stats and PFF that the team *doesn't* think Bryce was that bad in Week 1. Couple that with so many of the QBs in the league looking rough, offense being down in general, and I feel like there's a lot of "what if's" going on in the building instead of facing the music.  Lose Week 2, and we should switch the main focus back to building/churning the roster, evaluating young guys, and hoping our next QB can have a Jayden Daniels level of impact. As we're all well too aware of, QB is a crapshoot a lot of the time. Admit we made a bad pick, and go draft another. And another. Repeat until correct.     
    • I wouldn't want any of those starting as a rookie on day 1.  That said, we need a vet, that is not Andy Dalton, that can be the starter while a prospect grows and learns on the sidelines.
