  1. I thought KC's offense was going to suck because the talent around Alex Smith was unproven at best and terrible at worst. Then Hunt & Hill happened.
  2. Even then it'd be a statement like 'Look how far he's progressed from that dreadful 5 pick outing in LA!' or something to that effect. At least for a while.
  3. And yet the ones who that statement would apply to are still on the team, still starting, and one is considered a leader by the coaching staff.
  4. Castillo's seat is hotter, but he's got that tight connection w/ McD.
  5. Right. Like I said, he commented on the consistency and not who he was facing (which is fine). Some people (maybe even the coaches in private) are wondering whether Kawann Short and Dontari Poe playing would have effected the OL Play, and subsequently Nate's performance. Others mentioned that some starters in the secondary for Carolina also did not play. Now, this clearly isn't Nate's fault. He can't control who the other team fields. But when you're evaluating the QBs based on their level of competition, these things are potentially a factor.
  6. Did McD reference the opponents? I thought he simply said Peterman had been consistent.
  7. There has never been, and will never be, a time when I clamor for Peterman.* *Unless it's for an opposing team
  8. Neither one has any recorded stats during the game. Just curious if that's impacting our initial impression of the OL that game.
  9. Did either Short or Poe play in that game or did they get rest days?
  10. If the NFL did a 10 team playoff instead of a 12 team playoff would the Falcons have made the playoffs?
  11. If he's a post June 1 cut in 2019 then his dead cap is $4.6M ($6.9M Savings) and his dead cap in 2020 is $7.8M ($2.3M Savings).
  12. I guess we'll see if they can move the ball and score points or not.
  13. This may be foolish of me, but I truly believe that those type of adjustments would have been made in a regular season game. I believe the staff wanted tape on the plays that were run, regardless of the opposing defense's success. I also think they wanted to see if Allen's mechanics and footwork would revert under pressure, or if they would hold. And finally, I think that as the outing progressed they wanted to see how Allen would handle criticism and negative press following the game.
  14. Ideally we get both, but my expectations all offeason have been that the team will take a step backwards record-wise this year while putting the pieces in place for a roster than can have sustained success over a longer term. There were OL deficiencies in pass blocking for the past several years, and those were compounded by the losses of Wood and Incognito. Our WRs got consistently worse from 2015 to 2017. There is some hope that health and Zay Jones progressing in his second year would be good, plus the low risk-high reward acquisition of Corey Coleman, but that group is definitely still a wait and see for me. And the QB position is a complete unknown with the least NFL game experience in the entire league. Fortunately, experience is something that will come throughout the year as these unknown commodities at the most important position become known.
  15. Of the QBs who have started at least 15 games from 2015 to 2017 I have him 19th out of 39. ANY/A would put him 18th, Passer Rating would put him 15th.
  16. Wait, did Allen set a record for interceptions in a half yesterday? I must have missed it.
  17. It's coming straight through our OL and Ducasse has a really confused look on his face.
  18. Always. Except when it wasn't.
  19. Yeah, I go to the bar for the Bills game and that's about it for NFL football for me unless I'm planning on napping on the couch. I frankly have better things to do than watch teams I don't care about.
  20. No, not the point I was making. The main currency being used to acquire Mack is draft picks and those picks' value has changed to most NFL FO's. It'd be like if the US switched from Gold to Diamonds. Everything with a price would start to be re-evaluated.
  21. Draft rules have changed significantly, which alters their value. Specifically the wage scale and 5th year option.
  22. Yards are a function of attempts, and have a slightly negative correlation with wins. FWIW.
