He was supposed to break out every year and never did. Solid guy, wouldn’t say he really has a legacy

The time to tank was in 2022…. This fanbase man. Yall were too busy thinking we were sb contenders with 6 wins. Fk me

This is what happens when you try to cheat the game. Tepper flew too close to the sun with wax wings. We were supposed to just tank a season, maybe trade burns maybe not, and get the 1.01 or 1.02 naturally. Instead the team and a lot of you fans were delusional in thinking that we were a playoff team that season despite the fact the team fugging sucked. Tepper had to fire rhule mid season when we was leading us right to a top pick like he was supposed to. Then, when we unsurprisingly missed playoffs bc the team was trash, the FO realized we were fooked and had no shot at a top qb and got bent over a barrel trading up. Could’ve had moore + so much more on the team and been set up for success. Instead, this team feels doomed for another rebuild years from now, sorry “retooling” and we don’t even play our starters in the preseason yet Andy Reid plays mahomes. 2010-2011 was far less painful than these past 5 years of torture

so much this. Raw young players have (potentially) high ceilings. Old raw players? Not so much

What’s wrong with the qb school? He defends Bryce constantly. Thielen is slow af

He can’t break tackles at all. Which is so strange bc he’s supposed to be so big and fast.

Very fair criticism imo. Team opted for nickle corners, 8th string DTs and special teams players over OL and WR. We sign a DT to a 20+ million contract every free agency then still draft one over Jerry rices kid. Unbelievable

Again different position and I think you already know this so idk why I’m wasting my time responding but there’s 2-3 starting wrs and only 1 starting rb. Brooks just turned 21 and was stuck behind a top 10 rb on the depth chart. Why you’re comparing a 5th year breakout wr szn to a 3rd year breakout rb szn I have no idea

Completely different position and not a 5th year starter lol. Let’s not be disingenuous now. Early breakout age is one of the best predictive metrics for wr success in the nfl. 5th year breakouts are already rare as it is and even more rare are ones that pan out in the league. You can like XL while acknowledging his success would be a massive outlier

After going back through 2021 I was able to find 2 semi comparable college careers: velus jones didn’t do poo until his 5th year and Toney didn’t do anything until his 4th year. Perhaps more optimistic comps further back

Can someone please provide examples of 5th year college wrs who did nothing their first 4 years panning out in the league?

Not getting weaver was disappointing. Coker is good too. Idk. Just all around disappointing that we didn’t take advantage of a deep wr class

What is Mingo? None of the above. When did I say we couldn’t have multiple wr archetypes? Yall just keep saying DJ means no other separators which is so stupid

This argument is so bogus. NFL teams aren’t limited to 1 separator on each team. The more the merrier, as they say. Just bc we have DJ does not mean we have to have a bunch of other WRs that can’t get open

The bills clearly didn’t want him. We literally traded with the bills
