Probably not. Do the picks that bounce of XLs hands count though? We can throw those in for free to sweeten the deal.

This is why I hated the Dalton deal last year. He wasn't good in his stint before when Bryce was benched, and we signed him to 2 years almost fully guaranteed when he already had one foot in the career grave and the other on a banana peel. I'm still of the mind that they decided to sign the 5th year last season and signed Dalton to keep Young comfortable until he was finished with at least year 4. I'm going to laugh like hell though when they extend Dalton another year after they announce Bryce's 5th year option. They'll call it a restructuring for cap relief but we'll know what it really is. Keep that QB room competition free.

Now if we could package XL and 19 to move up to 11, I'd be all for that. Heck, I'm sure we've got a copy of Hurney's notes on how not to bust on your 1st round pick in a desk somewhere to include in the deal.

Wonder what the Vegas odds were on the first TD of the game being a pick 6 by Darnold.

19 to 11 won't be cheap and frankly we still have too many holes to go trading up. We're going to need out 2nd and 3rd rounders.

Huge QB contracts really hurt the team in the long run. Hard to build a complete team when so much cap is tied up in one spot. Brady kept his cap hit lower so other players could be brought in. Granted he was compensated in other ways. The QB contracts are almost what the rookie contracts used to be, a weight around the neck of the team that drag you down.

I'm not a Geno fan, but LV had the worst Oline I've seen in a long time. Jeanty had a little over 800 of his 975 yards after contact. That's insanely bad blocking. I don't want Geno here, but I can't fault anyone for looking like complete ass behind that poo show.

We could have built a good team with Fitt. Just do the opposite of whatever he wanted to do.

Their offensive line got owned tonight. That made all the difference.

Lol. Seahawks fans are a special breed of asshole. Never met a group that deserved to be punched in the taint repeatedly more, except maybe Bruins fans.

I live in the PNW. I'm going to have to hear about this nonstop for the next 4 months.

Happy for Sam. Who would have thought he ends up as a SB champion after having Adam Gase and Matt Rhule as his first 2 head coaches.

They're not letting him do what he does. Why on earth you stop running him once you get to the SB is beyond me.

He's got Mike Shula in his ear helping call plays.

Concussion specialist following him. He'll be back with 2 minutes to go.

JSN headed down the tunnel. Not good.

Didn't say that he did. He's obviously got issues. It just struck me with the second part of his comment that he doesn't get the ball where he can do much with it. That's all.

Gotta wonder how much Bryce affects him too. XL strikes me as a guy that relies on game rhythm to get his poo going. Bryce is about as inconsistent as a QB can get. That said, he seriously needs to focus on his game and catching the damn ball. A WR that can't catch is useless.

I didn't think he had officially retired to be eligible.

Person knows something. Has that phrase ever been uttered before?

No it isn't but it's a start to determining whether or not he's worth extending. The worst thing we can have is inconsistentcy. If he's consistently progressing, even if he has a turd of a game every now and again, that's something you can judge and measure. Up and down games every other week make it impossible to do and we certainly can't pay 40m or more a season for that.

How about we start with 2 franchise QB performances back to back.

Probably was told by his wife to go do something before he drove her nuts or else she was going to take Tepper's money and go crazy loading their master bedroom full of beanie babies and care bears.

I think they'll see last year as an oddity in 1 score wins and put our close game win total back down to would be average which is 6. After losing Icky and Rico, I think they drop us to 5.5. Our offense was not impressive and I doubt Vegas is as infatuated with Bryce as the media and Carolina is.

And if you factor in having the likely OROY that makes it even scarier. DC is not an offensive mastermind. But his offense is definitely offensive.
