He made it to the playoffs with Matt Cassell, and not only that, but Matt Cassell's first year starting since high school.

Actually, they missed the playoffs that year.

I find it comedic that I got killed for claiming around here for claiming the Pats are the top drafting team, yet just about every sports writer/reporter says the same thing.

You just dont have that many home grown Pro-Bowler + all those winning seasons + several titles by mistake. Only Pittsburgh is even in the discussion with them.

Perhaps I'm one of the few who can look at this objectively since I wasn't a Panthers fan when NE beat us?

Mayo, Wilfork, or Samuel are hype?

Yea, they are hyped, but not all are overhyped. Mayo is good (not as good as plenty other MLBs though, he's overrated just based on the fact he's a patriot). I'm not saying they've never picked well or anything, but not better than average. Wilfork is solid, Samuel is a bit overrated. But they have plenty of other players that are definitely overrated. I mean, how many years did it take for the media to get off Maroney's jock? He was heralded as "break out pick of the year" every year just because it was NE that took him until NE finally dumped him for like a 4th or 5th round pick.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By OldhamA · Posted

      I think you have to factor in that we're still not an attractive proposition for Head Coaches. You're not getting the cream of the crop if you fire Canales a year after winning the NFC South, especially considering the situation he walked into.

      Yeah, I was about to say I hope he's doing okay health-wise because he's not looking good in that pic.

      Honestly, I dont  think he should be on the hot seat yet. A bad start to next year, then yes. Despite our mistakes on play calling this past season, we played better than anticipated overall. Bryce showed improvement and maturity (although still not nowhere close to our expectations). Better record and 2-15 to 5-12 to 8-9. Despite what we feel the stats dont lie we are improving by 3 wins a year. Could 11-6 be our expectation. That's a high bar but at the rate we are going, thats what its looking like. We all want to see a 5-12 to a 13-4 record but we are methodically moving up. Success doesnt happen overnight (well in most cases).  IMO we are struggling mostly on the defensive end. LB and edge are our biggest weakness. I see Bryce making improvements (even though I was a Bryce hater) next year. Biggest concern is LT on offense. How to fix this? We need a big name edge or to trade up and get a big name edge or LB and pick up one in FA and draft one. Also if in the 3rd we can pick up a TE. Dont know if Sanders is the answer or Tremble (even though I love Trembles blocking and power after the catch). If these two can get their footwork together they would be great. Maybe all they need is a better TE coach. And if Brooks can stay healthy and be the back we thought he could be, man that would be great
