Pro Bowler (3/5)

  1. No numbers early is generally a sign that the deal is in team's favour. If numbers are big, then agent pushes them out immediately.
  2. Make it happen Ran. Clear #1 free agent target.
  3. With the Bills cap issues, I am really hoping they cut Mitch Morse. He should be #1 priority for us immediately if that happens. An upgraded pass blocking version of Ben Jones, that is a good communicator and can anchor our line that is likely to have a bunch of rookies and 2nd year players.
  4. I want the next head coach to understand the importance of big play runs being core to the running game. The Dolphins offense has so much speed at RB, and you see what the Lions do with Gibbs. Running it into the line 30 times a game is not viable. Using perimeter runs with speed at RB to create big plays is viable. As Henry lost a step and big play runs were no longer part of his repertoire the whole offense suffered. high completion percentage passing game and explosive running game is literally the absolute opposite of what our 29th ranked offense trotted out. Vote 1 Frank Smith.
  5. Not sure why you think AAS looks like a color, let alone a moron. I think it shows she had a good feel for the (lack of) market for Vrabel. Trading him was never viable. Firing him was the only option to move forward.
  6. Waldron or Frank Smith please
  7. The QB group in this years draft is at least as good as last years if not better where 3 QBs went in top 4 picks. Williams, Maye, Daniels, Penix and Nix could all go top 10. There are a bunch of QB desperate teams between 9 and 15 (Falcons, Raiders, Broncos, Vikings). There is definitely chance of trade ups to grab a QB and WRs and OTs slipping. 7 is a premium pick. This is a good draft to have a premium pick and we should have a chance at impact player.
  8. I think if a trade happens we need to reset expectations on compensation. Vrabel is not a Super Bowl winning coach like Payton, Gruden, Parcells or Holmgren. Holmgren was two years off winning the Super Bowl and had never had a losing record and was traded from Green Bay to Seattle for a 2nd round pick. Herm Edwards may be closest comparison. He had four pretty good seasons with the Jets and then a 4-12 season. Jets traded him to KC for a 4th round pick. That would be about the ceiling on Vrabel I reckon.
  9. It’s also a good lesson in rushing to judgement on Levis. There have been plenty of reports over the last two years that Love is not the answer in Green Bay and even this season, Love had a pretty disappointing stretch of games before the run he is going on now. Sometimes a QB needs time to develop, and nothing beats in game experience in developing a QB. Let’s ride a Levi’s for the next season annd an half and see what we have.
  10. Skoronski was an elite college LT but is only playing LG because the Titans already had a good LT in Andre Dillard. Oh wait....... It really is madness they don't see if Skoronski is able to hold up at LT. It's a hell of a lot easier to get a starting LG through other means.
  11. Where I live a 1pm game is a 3am start on Monday morning. Combination of age, and declining interest has meant that I have stopped waking up at 3am each morning and instead wake up around 5 and skip through commercials etc and still watch the game pretty much in total before I have to go to work in the morning. Daylight saving change in the US makes that 4am now, so in theory I would push my wake up another hour to the right. But the possibility we have a real QB changes everything. My excitement level to watch the Titans (even though this season is going nowhere) to see if Levis can prove to be the guy has increased significantly. And if he turns out to be the real deal, I guarantee I will be back to 3am starts for years to come. It does make for a pretty shitty Monday at work when you have virtually no sleep and the team is a tire fire and gets beaten by 30 points.
  12. Pre-draft reports on Levis indicated he could be Zach Wilson-like. We have definitely seen enough from Zach Wilson, and after 2 games of Will Levis, I am pretty confident that there is a sizable gap between the two. We don't know if Levis will truly be a franchise QB. But I think we do know that he won't be Zach Wilson bad.
