We share a birthday and I wrote him a letter about it as a child. He sent back a note with a signed picture. Or it was my grandma. Either way, I was a happy camper.
This is the most plausible critique to my argument that our OLine depth is barren. But even if we grant Qberry the benefit of the doubt, is there even another rostered player we can do that for? Does the next-best become a discussion of boettger's achilles?
I agree. I have no issue with our starting 5, and it seems reasonable given the overall roster. I cant stand our depth. Waiting for news that we've picked up better depth players during cut-season...
I think you're undervaluing Dane and Neal, and I think we've got a scheme to at least compete even with Tre out. But 🤷♂️.
OLine depth to me looks like a legitimate long term (season length) problem.
Tre, Taron, Elam, Dane, Neal (with McCloud, Lewis and Harris having some plays made in camp)...I don't think I'd call it terrifying. Especially with Poyer and Hyde over the top.
The offensive line depth is almost criminal.
OLine is the weakness by a mile. I don't dislike the top 5 (I'm higher on brown than some), but I don't know if I trust a single depth player. It's the only thing that's "controllable" (to a degree) that worries me about this team.
Of course. We should have won it last year and we are smack dab in our window to win it all.
I just don't think we'll get the 1 seed after the regular season.
The sad part is there is nothing weird about this. Thad being distinctly critical remains steady regardless of what happens on the field, and thus is often at odds with other reporters. I can't remember a camp that he was at where he didn't do this.
I think you sort of implied the answer. Which is anyone who can hold onto the ball is an upgrade. We have a dynamic offense - I'm not taking return skills at the cost of ball security issues.
