This is ridiculous...we know that the owner's voted last night 31-0. 1 team obstained from voting. What does that mean, they don't want to make a profit this year?

The players did not receive an updated contract until 10pm Thursday night. That's the reason they did not vote yesterday. We can't blame them for not voting before they read the most recent version of the contract.

So Friday comes and goes, still no player vote. Additionally, the Owner's are requiring the players union to recertify so they are not in violation of anti-trust laws. Basically a recertified union protects the owners. Can't blame the owner's for that one.

Owners had requested that the lockout be lifted Saturday --so players could enter team training facilities as early as Saturday. I don't know the status of this-doubtful. The owners have even offered to have index cards made up for all the players to vote on the recertification of the union when/if they arrive at the team facilities on Sat. All that is needed for recertification is the majority vote of the 1900 + players in the nfl.

I thought for sure this would be done today....really growing tired of this.

      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.
