* Rivera has a great defensive mind

Did their Rookie DT's play good? I am a big fan of their draft, but i wasn't expecting Star and Short to dominate right off the bat. Especially against the Ravens O line. I haven't got to see the game. I was out here directing traffic for Madison Central v Brandon football game. Your from the Sip so you know who that is. Brandon ranked #1 in the state right now.

Shoot yeah. Man, those boys were dominating. It was scary. Made me very glad they took Cam instead of Darius.

* Yeah, to me they have the best DE combo in the NFC. Next year or maybe two years from now they could have the best D line in the NFC. Freaking legit they got Star and then Short. They compliment each other so well.

* Their defensive line was the key to his success. They disrupted Flacco's rhythm. In my humble opinion, Spoon could have put up those stats without too much trouble if he was a Panther( a sight I never want to see).

* Dline is the reason for Kuechly to do what he did against the Ravens. Star and Short were destroying the middle of their Oline. Each with 1 sack and 3 TFL. Even when double teamed, Star still held them up.

Basically the DTs allowed Kuechly to run free. Every great MLB out there or has ever been out there, has had help from their Dline in freeing them up. Kuechly was a tackling machine with an eye for the ball last season with zero support in the middle of the line, if the DTs hold up, there could be a defensive player of the year award somewhere in Kuechly's future, down the road.

* The Panties front seven is sick. They punked us last year before the additions on the DLine. We better bring our lunch pail when we play em.

* AJ Klein may become really good... he and Kuechly = ouch

* Kuechly put almost every LB in the NFL to shame save Patrick Willis. Not sure why you're singling out the Falcons

* He is a beast. I'd take him over all our LBs over Spoon (yes, I know he's a MLB).

* Kuechly is a beast. I'm still surprised (and annoyed) that he fell to the Panthers. I know LBs aren't as highly valued as they should be but he was, and is, a much better player than #9 overall

* I liked Kuechly because he showed & proved last season he was more than capable. the young DTs yall drafted is gonna pay off big, but the thing that scared me down the line was when yall got AJ Klein. if he stays healthy and plays to his ability it'll be like having Kuechly a & b.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?

      If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
