  1. Eh, every team has the same plays, it's just different verbiage and wrinkles. I don't think the offense Frank ran as a player here all those years ago is very similar to his system today. Regardless of all that, I'd be happy to see Jim's backup coaching his nephew and having the both of them be successful. I expected him to get a little playing time last year with the Broncos and he should have if he wasn't such a knucklhead. We'll see this year...I have faith in Brissett to manage that team well so I'm not so certain he'll have a shot unless they're eliminated early and trying to evaluate the roster depth.

  2. **** Ryan Grigson and that garbage OL he kept putting around him all those years leading to all these injuries

     

    I'm so upset for Coach Reich, the rest of the Colts fanbase, and most importantly for Andrew for his present and future life after football

    The Jets O-line is terrible and teams will put 8 to 9 players in the box. Gase also does not like to use only one back.

     

    In the end, I think their team is going to be a disaster. Maybe even more so than the fins.

     

    Eh, yeah Gase never used one back exclusively, but that shouldn't mean anything in the present since he never has had someone as talented on Bell - on paper and on the field.

     

    Jets OL will definitely make him not put up as great numbers as he did all his Steelers years, but good players can mask talent deficiencies on a roster. Bringing Kalil out of retirement could be a huge plus, compared to all those awful snaps Darnold received in his game against us (and others). 

     

    Thinking that the jets could be worse than the fins? Come on dude.

  4. I do anticipate DE being one of the big(ger) needs going into next offseason, with Shaq walking and lots of us remaining skeptical of Trent's health/production. We're going to be great as a cohesive unit, but I do expect that consistent pass rush will be the weakest category among itself, run defense, the stellar secondary, and our young heat seeking LBs.

    Trent Edwards. Have spoken at length a number of times about his experiences with the Bills. 

     

    What all did he say? The ending of his career here was pretty ugly (TC insults and Chan getting involved, abruptly cut midseason, etc.) so it wouldn't surprise me if it left a bitter taste in his mouth - or at least a combo of that along with being professional and saying how he enjoyed it here

    The changes made to the CBA after the 2011 lock out made it one of the few sports related labor disputes that actually had a noticeable positive outcome.

     

    We can (partly) thank JaMarcus Russell for that, too. Imagine being so awful at your job that you completely reset the pay scale of entry level employees by a margin as large as this.

    Cody wasn’t Drafted because he was BPA. Beane tried to trade back up into the 1st for him, succeeding in trading up early in the 2nd. We targeted him.

     

    Case in point; if you're trading back into the first, that's because of how he stuck out on their board

    I really, really do not want to dispute that, as I am inclined to agree! However, we have many deserving candidates...Jim Ringo? Kay Stephenson? Hank Bullough? A real Rogue's Gallery of ineptness to choose from. :bag:

     

    So glad it looks like our trajectory is miles ahead of those clowns now!!

     

    I'm a younger fan so I'm not too familiar with how all those guys did, but relative to the talent that was on hand and the hype/expectations of our team, I can't see how he can't get the vote. All those additions on offense as well as finishing top 10 in scoring back to back years and a promise to not put square pegs in round holes on defense when the regime did that exact thing...smh

  9. I'm glad lots of us like the guy, but can someone help sell me on him? Watching his clips I see a guy similar to David Nelson - tall and lanky, yet sure handed as well. Lots of DBs covering him on his TD highlights look like they covered rather poorly. 

     

    I get he's a UDFA, and if he makes the roster I'll be happy for him, but I just want to hear a little more insight on guys that have followed and seen him more than I have.
