  1. I have a gut feeling Hackett and Rodgers are gonna stink up the joint Broncos style. Hackett rode the coattails of LeFleur to a head coaching job and proved that he absolutely SUCKED at it. As an OC he's had pretty meh offenses except for GB (and that offense wasn't his) and he'd never called plays until he was HC of the Broncos and was...not good.

     

    For as good as Rodgers is I don't think that offense can overcome Hackett's terrible play calling abilities and their pretty questionable offensive line.

     

    Miami is legit good and between Tua staying healthy, Vic Fangio being a good DC and them having pretty decent personnel on both side of the ball except for a pretty pedestrian running game I think they'll give us a hard time and maybe even win a game against us. I am more afraid of Mia than I am of the NYJ.

     

    NE is NE and I just don't think that team has the firepower to match us, imo.

     

    I think the hype for NYJ is a bit misplaced, I see shades of Denver there. That defense is gonna be tough but I think their offense is going to struggle because Hackett sucks. NE is NE and Mia is gonna be a tough out.

    People forget how good Davis was the previous two seasons, especially when Allen would break the pocket and scramble around. Davis would continue working to get open and make some amazing sideline catches, many on 3rd down. I’m hoping last season was just a down year for him.

     

    Or how we was basically playing for most of the regular season on a bum leg because he was the only WR we had who could block. Crowder and Kumerow going down for the year early really sucked for our depth and forcing us to trot out players that were not 100%.

     

    It's also odd that we talk about what kind of bum Davis is when he basically had a great year statistically for yards and TDs last year and his catch rate didn't drastically go up or down either, its pretty in line with previous years because he's mostly used as an X receiver who runs deep so you're gonna see more drops/throwaways.

  3. It's easy to put up good numbers in the Big 12, not exactly a conference built of defensive powerhouses. Feel like Mims came into the league thinking he'd dominate DBs the way he did at Baylor in the Big 12 and was thoroughly humbled by how hard it is to even get NFL open in the NFL.

     

    I'd pass, even though he's played with meh QBs. Good wideouts get NFL open and shine even when the quarterback is so-so.

    Unfortunately there’s very few teams in today’s modern NFL that will win a Super Bowl with Kyle Allen

     

    Josh has to be 1 of 53 when it matters in playoff times… And everybody needs to step up around him

     

    And I believe it will happen it just hasn’t yet

     

    The Eagles won a SB with Nick Foles. Nick Foles is not a great quarterback. He was good when he needed to be and the team around him was absolutely stacked.

    Good interview. Dion is a fun guy. Good to hear him praise Buffalo's fans the way he does.

     

    Not sure what Cowherd means when he insists that a team with a running QB who goes off script (like Josh can do) has a harder time establishing a run game with the backs — is he suggesting that the linemen are less focused on written-up plays? Not sure I agree.

     

    I think it's harder to establish a rhythm with 1-2 RB's because you're not really setting up a ton of run first plays. A lot of this type of running is predicated off PA/option plays. As for linemen, maybe its the mentality that you have to sell a ton of your blocking as pass and you have to wait for what happens in the backfield to then switch into upfield blocking and trying to set running lanes off script. It's a lot more mentally taxing to do that than to just know that on this play we're doing X.

     

    Also teams tend to play a team with a strong running QB differently. There's ALWAYS a couple of players peeking into the backfield and keeping an eye on the QB and runners to close those gaps/limit breakaways.

    Good! This officially puts McDermott on the hot seat, it's his defense and they are making him change DC, he's officially been given a warning. 

     

    Kim will need to eventually step in because Beane won't fire McD.

     

    You're suggesting that the best coach this team has had in something like 2 decades is on the hot seat this year? It took Andy Reid a damn long time to win a Super Bowl and no one ever suggested that he get fired while constantly having the Chiefs in contention.

     

    This place is *something* in the offseason, damn 😂

    How do you commit $25+ million a year to two LBers who don't rush the QB?  That's a huge chunk of money to what amounts to arguably the least impactful defensive positions.

     

    There is soooo much more to playing LB than rushing the QB. Good linebackers like Edmunds and Milano take away huge chunks of the field and force QBs to have to make much more difficult throws into much tighter windows. In the modern game an incompletion is almost as good as a sack, it's a play for no yards and a loss of down.
