Just sign Matt Coghlin after this season...problem solved, no trade needed. Release Bass and eat his 3M dead cap.

I think it's officially time to seriously start shopping Elam for a trade. They obviously aren't playing him anytime soon.

I gotta imagine Curtis Samuel will emerge as our WR2 after Shakir. Coleman will slowly be developed. Have no clue how consistent or productive Hollins/MVS will be? We'll be drafting more wrs this April.

You can't keep a kicker with no confidence beyond 40. We blew it by extending him and we ignored all the warning signs last year. They had a plan...we didn't.

It wasn't tipped or blocked and he sure as hell didn't slip. Just a poorly struck duck hook with no height.

Just call Coghlin or Szmyt. These 2 UFL guys look projectable. York or Carlson do nothing for me.

Not this season.

Tyler's best season was his first. He kicked 87% and was accurate beyond 50+. It's been downhill since. He's had 2 seasons at 82% which puts you at the bottom of the NFL. This team made a mistake on his extension and now they're on the verge of paying for that mistake. We're going to probably draft another PK this April. It will be up to McB as to how much dead cap we eat?

Bass has never kicked beyond 87% in his life. And his confidence on distance is shot. Call Coghlin or Szmyt from the UFL.

If I'm Beane, I'm calling Matt Coghlin and/or Andre Szmyt from the UFL. Both were around 93% and can kick beyond 50+.

I think Brady's offense allows Josh to be far less reckless. Running Cook/Davis should bring 2 high safeties up as the season progresses. I think you'll see 17 embrace the shorter/ safer TB12 type passes. And I could realistically see Josh have a career low in interceptions. Brady may not be Reid but he's worlds better than Dorsey.

Yep, his days are numbered. We just can't rely on him anymore beyond 40. His confidence on deep kicks is shot.

...actually @bill8164 beat you by 3 min.

Both are pretty bad. Carlson missed 5 xps last year and was 50% from 40-49. York even worse at 75% overall. This is what happens when you prematurely reward a kicker who's career 84% would put him in the bottom 10. Just another example of telling Josh to "do it all".

Such a stupid extension. And so I'll prepared for what they obviously saw last year. We can't get out of his contact this season, but maybe next season w/ a 3M dead hit.

First of all passing is down league wide. Qbs like Mayfield & Carr cannot keep this pace. Josh simply has to keep doing what he's done these first 2 games. Let Brady dial up Cook and spread the wealth among several receivers. 4000 yards/ 70% and a qb rating around 105 will probably get you an MVP. And God knows he's long overdue.

....anything that minimizes Josh's int's and we keep winning with a run control offense is fine with me. There will be chances to go deep if mvs & Josh can get on the same page.

Even when he was in his "low positive diggs diva" year, he never uttered such words.

I'd still prefer he'd leap over that tiger in the Gladiator spot.

Big double bird for the bird fans...

It's way more fun listening to the manningcast banter.

We moved on from White, Poyer and Hyde at the perfect time.

...and the same amount of playoff wins. Lamar will never be #3 until he plays better than 2-4 in the playoffs with a 75 qb rating. I guess Burrow & Stroud can battle it out for 3.

Andy Reid is not a secret nor is he a small part of this team. Face it everyone, the Chiefs are the new Brady/ Belichick Patriots. They have the best QB / HC combo in the league. They are clearly the league darlings who become instantly entitled to extra calls. The have the world's top pop star helping their marketing and exposure. This is an absolute dream scenario for Goodell. Is it fair to the other 31 teams....no. But Roger doesn't care about fair, he cares about revenue.

I have a son with Aspergers and you wouldn't wish that anyone.
