Will people please cite exacts on when Gross has shown to have lost it? I ask because some clowns were crying that he got murdered against KC when he only gave up two pressures, one that led to a 7yd gain and the other was the LaFell drop. Otherwise he kept his side of the line protected, and I saw some healthy runs when going off the left side.

I can't help but think most of the hate for Gross from people looking at two numbers (his age and his contract) instead of the actual player.

The people who want to cut Gross now are probably the same people who wanted to cut Gamble after 2010. That was a stupid idea then and this is a stupid idea now.

Not even close.

I've always loved Gamble. Gross is about money, and declining performance.

Isn't he one of the guys who would cost more against the cap to cut than keep?

No. He and Gamble count roughly $23 million against the cap next year and neither have much in the way of unallocated bonus. At minimum they will have to be open to re-structuring or will likely be gone by necessity.

Ah. Well it sure would be nice if they restructure. I imagine they'll just sign extensions that give them 2 or 3 more years and lower their cap numbers by like half. I don't foresee either of them leaving. Would be pretty irresponsible to cut your best player in the secondary (by far) and your team captain LT who, despite popular opinion here, isn't playing THAT bad. Bad game against Denver but otherwise better than at least half of the test of the league. The problem is both Guard spots (Amini's still learning obviously) and Center.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By frankw · Posted

      I think the Bevell hire has more to do with adding actual veteran head coaching experience to the staff than anything else. But I do wholeheartedly agree that the obsession in general with Seattle needs to come to an end. I mean we plucked the one guy there to be our GM who turned out to be our worst GM in franchise history in just a few short years and that's really saying something given our history there. Clearly trying to mimick Seattle in any way has not been productive. As far as Idzik many of us have asked the same question but at this point in time it doesn't really matter anymore because Canales is either going to lead this franchise to a winning record or he will be shown the door.

      By strato · Posted

      That’s why Bevell is a good move. Idzik might not be chopped liver, he is just inexperienced and even less ready to be the play caller than Canales. I still say the playbook is limited which is a hinderance to calling plays, I would imagine.    Anyway Beavis lol… no Bevell, got to consecutive SBs as an OC and won one with 48 points or something. Should have won the second one. And had several more good years there.    They were the team we had to learn how to beat it took us til the third year I think before we could go into Seattle and successfully compete.   That is glass half full thinking, yep, but that is head and shoulders over what we have had here for a while. Certainly now.     In addition.. It was Canales’ boss. He knew more then , I would bet he knows more now. I can’t look at this as anything but a potential positive thing.  Hell he might be the guy that can look at Dave and say what the fug are you doing? And Dave will listen. I think I can hope for that.  Maybe not.
