It's been a shocking turnaround, from the FA pieces of Lewis & Hunt being a success and then stacking that with depth pieces that have contributed on top of Ickey progressing. Turned around the offense on a dime. 

What they've done with Ickey boggles my mind 🥺

Absolutely no reason to rush him back.  The O-line is miraculously holding up.  Keep him in our back pocket for a potential playoff push.  I don't think his presence will make enough of a difference at the close of this season to really push games our direction.  It literally all hinges on Bryce Young being able to play at least adequately.  That's all this team needs.  If we get into the playoffs and Hunt is fully healed and ready, that's the time to bring him back.

Please do not rush him back if he is not completely healthy. Don't need him screwing up his biceps again and missing games next year also...

That being said, would definitely be nice having him back at RG. Although I do think Curhen has been pretty solid and was a good find off of the Cardinal's practice squad

Curhen has performed both well and absolutely terrible.

Ideally we get a real NFL caliber OG in there when Corbett slides back over.

I'll take solid with a couple of bad plays over Zavala being awful on just about every pass blocking opportunity.

Curhen was on the Cardinal's practice squad for a reason - he isn't very talented. That being said, I think he has done a solid job in the games he has played.

If the argument is Zavala vs. Curhen, the battle is already lost.

Not sure who but Curhen has former connections with someone on our staff.  They obviously knew something more about him.  He's no Andrew Norwell but we ran the ball at will with this guy so he does deserve some props.

Zavala for whatever reason cannot stand up to the demands of playing in the NFL.  He's collecting a paycheck but rarely is available.  I'd rather move on and work with guys like Curhan that at least can stay healthy.

Canales and Curhan go back to their Seattle days.

I gotta disagree here, reason being that our OL coaching is significantly improved.

You can disagree but I would suggest looking at recent games for Curhan.

I am not expecting the world, nor should any of us, but we also shouldn't be surprised when a PS player gets abused in games.

That's a very unsuccessful strategy.

Cuhran did not play well last week when I watched / noticed.  However, He does not cost us over $1m per game either.  He has been solid up until then-not sure how he graded vs the Rams, but I would bet "not great."  (just checked--a 56.3--not horrible).

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By strato · Posted

      We’re in a pickle. My best hope is we protect him and can run the ball vs most Ds and the WRs are healthy so he has every chance to not look like what he looked like in too many games last year.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.
