If we get Foreman back I’d rather keep Blackshear over Chuba.

Yeah, I don’t think we are done with FA or trading. I’m just saying it is shaping up nicely for us. It’s heading in that direction and it’s not far away.

Draft is starting to look more open for us now. I doubt we will need to reach for anything. That’s what you want.

Can anyone confirm that Evero will sometimes use 6 DBs at the same time? I feel like I heard that before….

CJ Stroud is the only answer for me. I love the fact he isn’t a “RUNNING” QB. That style of play isn’t sustainable. He is good at going thru progressions and slight adjustments in the pocket. That’s what made Brady great. Being mobile with pocket awareness. Burrow had great WRs and he is balling in the NFL. And lastly, Bryce’s height and weight ABSOLUTELY is an issue.

Can he play RB?

I think it’s hilarious that you assume our kicker would FOR SURE the regular FG. Lol!

It really all depends on what we are able to bring in during free agency. If we go heavy on the defense, we should draft QB, WR, TE, and RB. We should NOT trade any more assets unless it’s a smart move cap-wise. We are set up big time for next year. We are about to open a nice 5 year window. Hardman, WR-DRAFT PICK, Marshall, Shi, and Shenault should suffice. Lean on the run game early. Add a TE through free agency or draft to pair with Tremble.

But I HIGHLY doubt we are in the top 5 next year. Even if we rolled with Darnold, Jacoby, or Corral I still think we are out of the top 10.

In my honest opinion, Wilks was out when he lost to Tampa. Hear me out: The whole thing with Wilks was that the team was playing for him and the community was behind him. And then, as a defensive minded coach, he loses because of three huge DEFENSIVE breakdowns. To a team that was lucky to score. The Bucs were not a good team and a playoff spot was on the line, and we lost to an inferior team. Again, with a defensive choke. That’s just how I see it.

Wilks earned the right to seriously be considered. He took over a train wreck. The game against the Bucs, three plays destroyed us. In all three plays, Evans got behind our secondary without so much as a head fake. If Horn didn’t get hurt, Wilks would have been a lock for this job. Either way, I just want to do our due diligence and hire the one most qualified.

I really hate to lay this on one part of the team. But we need better corners. Yes, the pass rush wasn’t good today. But Mike Evans didn’t fake anyone out. They just let him stroll right by them. I felt good about Darnold and okay about Wilks. If not for the terrible plays by our corners, we would have destroyed them and Wilks’s plan would have been fine. If Horn played we would have won. I put it all on those three plays. Terrible coverage.

Nothing is guaranteed in this league except one thing. You get a trophy if you win the last game. First overall picks bust, undrafted players become all-pro, NFL superstars get injured, etc. JUST WIN.

I’m not disagreeing with you at all. I just feel like it’s our fault we were not capable of balancing the offense and I don’t think we are a more talented team without him. Granted, we may play better AS a team. But it’s sad he had to leave in order for us to succeed. QB play is far more important than any other position, but we didn’t have to get rid of CMC to have good QB play, and if we did, then our coaching staff is to blame. Regardless of the reason, he is gone and we are one game away from potentially leading the division. Hope PJ continues to play well.

We failed to use CMC correctly, it’s not his fault. Let’s wait til we win a couple games before we crown ourselves champs. Haha! We played well, but one game proves nothing by itself.
