  1. We have the best team we have had in years, the best coaching we have had in years, and the best front office we have had in years.   However, once again, we dropped some games this year that we shouldn’t have, and played poorly in others that we still managed to win. Instead of looking for someone to blame, let’s just figure out what we need to do to field a better and more consistent team.

  2. How about Aaron Kramer?

     

    On January 16, 2013, Kromer was announced as the new offensive coordinator and offensive line coach for the Chicago Bears. He joined Marc Trestman's initial coaching staff, after working with Trestman in Oakland.[4] In his first year, the Bears offense had the second-best scoring offense in the league with 445 points, behind the Denver Broncos, while finishing fifth with 4281 passing yards.[5] The offense also broke team records in total yards (6,109), passing yards (4,450), passing touchdowns (32) and first downs (344).[6] On February 12, 2014, offensive line assistant Pat Meyer was named offensive line coach while Kromer, who served as offensive coordinator and line coach in 2013, remained the offensive coordinator and continued to be involved in all aspects of the offense, including the line with an increased role with the passing game.[7]

  3. Gunner, I loved reading your analysis as usual. I would like to throw something out there. I don’t think Beane was looking for someone to be “the guy.”  I think he was looking for a different kind of receiver than we had in the roster. In Coleman, we got just that.

    If Reed didn't play in 4 Super Bowls, he wouldn't have one either. He never even had back to back 1000 yard seasons, only had 4 ever and only hit 10 TDs once in his career. if he played today, he might not be a top 30 player. Meanwhile Diggs has 6 consecutive 1k seasons, 2 seasons of 10+ TDs in 7 fewer seasons.

    Reed is near the top of the most overrated players of all time.

    I politely disagree. You don’t collect his stats without talent, and he had plenty. How many 1st-round receivers have not even played in a Super Bowl, while a 4th-rounder from Kutztown Dtate played in four?  Diggs may be comparable to Reed, but he is no way a clearly better receiver. I know he was a 5th rounder, but he was supposedly a #1 WR. Not anymore.

    CJ Stroud - 2023’s NFL O Rookie of the Year.  
     

    Is Diggs going to be the 3rd or 4th target in Houston behind Collins, Dell, and TE Schultz?

    I won’t be sold on Stroud unless he repeats the same kind of season he had last year. Now three’s a season worth of film on him.

    If he's a major contributor in the Texans winning a Lombardi, I would take that bet

     

    He's gonna have the numbers. The question will be whether he can help take a team to the promised land

     

    I have no idea what kind of impact Diggs will have, but I would imagine he will be a factor for at least his first couple years

    Who is throwing to him in Houston?

  7.   I'm watching the Tampa Bay game.  We spent, or are going to spend, a lot of money at QB, WR, C, OL, DL, LB, and DB.  e also spent some premium draft picks at QB, OL, DL, LB, and DB.  We cannot run, we cannot stop the run, we cannot pressure QBs, and we have trouble covering.  

     

       We even lost to Jacksonville (!), so how are we going to fare against playoff-caliber teams?

  8. I expected nothing but gloom and doom after last night’s debacle, I would like to remind all who criticized me for stating that the key to winning is running the ball and stopping the run. We can do neither, so, if we do make the playoffs, we won’t get very far. 
     

    I’m hoping for some coaching, scheme, and player changes on both sides of the ball this offseason.
