My only real concern is lot of fundamental slip ups that plagued us all last year. Sometimes I wonder how disciplined we are. That said, it's very possible it's just rust and we'll get it worked out.

Have to wait and see. Luckily it's a short week to gameday.

Where did people honestly expect any drastic defensive imrprovement to come from?

Our personnel is almost identical. People that expected some miraculous breakthrough from Sione Fua who was essentially the defensive version of Teh Jimmy his first year are kidding themselves in their own fantasy land.

Health and experience will boost us a tiny extent, other than that, we have to simply hope we find a few diamonds in the rough at key positions.

Its this for now

Not saying we can't have a winning record or get into the teens defensively but its nearly the same unit as last year. A LOT is riding on McClain's development and Edwards' comeback

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By frankw · Posted

      The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.

      Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      By frankw · Posted

      Looks like Darnold should have had at least 3 picks. That'll get ugly in the playoffs eventually. Can't deny his physical talent though. You either have that or you don't. Mike Macdonald is a legit coach.
