    Maybe. This was also supposed to be a very strong QB class and it turned out not to be(I never bought into this idea, FWIW). We will see how it goes and who is available.

    Hunt should probably be left alone and then moved after 2026 or restructured to make that cut less cap impactful. We cannot keep paying a guy that much at RG, especially when he isn't a truly elite IOL. Brown is definitely a candidate for some restructuring and maybe an extension. Horn's deal is freshly inked and it's very favorable for us. We can get out of it with fairly miminal cap implications in 2027. I wouldn't touch that one.

    Yes, this has happened several times already. Moore being a current example. It is overwhelmingly a net positive for the NFL.

    You also have the option to punt and tag him the next season if he doesn't get any field time. For some context, Rashawn Slater also suffered a patellar tendon tear prior to the 2025 season. So we might get an advanced look at that recovery to an extent. I do think an OT SHOULD have been in the early draft plans even prior to Ikey's injury. Moton's situation alone should have made that a priority.

    I have a mistrust of both QBR and Total QBR because of the opaque nature of them. They aren't terrible to bounce off other QB measures/metrics but I would agree none of these are a good idea to use in a vacuum.

    The concussions spaced so close together is very worrisome.

    QB quality has been up and down long before the NIL. In the end, I think it will have a big net positive NFL impact on QB specifically as it has kept QB's that would have been incentivized to leave early to stay in school and either get more development or get more game tape to evaluate properly. This has already been evident with a lot of players dropping precipitously as they stay in college and prove they are not first round caliber QB's. The transfer portal has also had a big net positive impact on prospects overall because it gives you the ability to evaluate them in different systems and situations. It has removed a ton of risk from NFL evaluations as a result.

    It makes no sense to have two ultra high priced OG's and Lewis is actually exceptional in run blocking and pass protection. Hunt is basically an exceptional run blocker only.

    I think we will know. Neither Dan nor Dave came from heavy 3-4 defenses in their background. If we go 3-4 defensive coordinator again, I believe you have your answer.

    If any of the things were true about Brian Flores, I would add him. Edit: Brian Daboll, as well. What a raging cVnt that guy was.

    It's gonna be an interesting one to see that search. One has to assume they will go young coach again. Likely defensive, so Minter, Weaver, Evero all fit that mold. It could be that Evero is a better HC than he is a DC but I question how someone who seems so poor at talent evaluation and has a very flawed defensive strategy will excel at that. Hey, hopefully we find out. I know it could certainly get worse on that side of the ball for us but I suppose luckily it can't actually get that much worse than being dead last and below average. As many changes as we can make to our coaching staff, all the better.

    Like who? We have had far more leave and not pan out than vice versa.

    Green Bay may very well open up after next season. I agree, I think he will likely choose a spot with a settled QB situation. He thrived with that in Pittsburgh but he had to scrap hard to make do with the parade of misfit QB's since Roethlisberger retired.

    QBR as an idea to incorporate rushing effectiveness was a good concept. Without being able to see behind the curtain, it's hard to know if it is accomplishing that or not. I would say Nate Silver's QBERT has the potential to be a much better metric than QBR. At least his methodology is transparent, anyway.
  15. kungfoodude
    It's been 6 seasons and an eventual waiving mid-season. Some of these guys just don't pan out. You should be very familiar with this phenomenon as a Panthers fan and especially one in the Tepper era.
  16. kungfoodude
    QBR is the worst one because it hides behind the cloak of being "proprietary." ESPN does not publish what the actual basis of QBR is. There is no way for other analytics guys to even critique the math/methodology involved because no one outside ESPN knows what it is.
  17. kungfoodude
    Don't underestimate how a bad hire can flip that on it's head. IMO, this was a mutual parting of ways because he likely would have been canned otherwise. Also, I am willing to bet his media job lasts until a good HC opportunity presents itself.

    I am not a Dart believer. As I have said, Lane Kiffin QB's are extremely ill prepared for the NFL. I don't see much difference other than Dart being a big athlete. That's great but he also has zero sense of self preservation and he is likely to sustain several serious injuries if he does not figure this out. Lamar was at least smart enough early in his career to understand the need to avoid those kind of hits. Most successful QB's figure that out(even Josh Allen had to). As for Harbaugh, he is a good coach but I do question if he will be given the time and resources to build there. It could be a prime location for a big time free agent QB once the Dart thing fails. That's not nothing.

    I would love to see him go destroy the Steelers and make them look foolish for firing Mike Tomlin.
  20. kungfoodude
    He was the coach of that worst defense, bub.
  21. kungfoodude
    I have seen little indication of Evero learning much. He seems to be a guy that believes in his system thoroughly, for better or worse.
  22. kungfoodude
    Simmons has never been successful at anything in the NFL. He is true blue bust. Keep in mind as both a LB and S in his career he is allowing a 100.9 QB rating in his career. He gets picked on in pass coverage when he is on the field. This is fairly similar to the much maligned Nick Scott's career QB rating He can be a deep reserve for us and a potential special teams ace. Hey, everyone needs backups and having them that are also great special teamers is a huge boost.

    Yeah, I think people forget that we basically benched Chinn for a lot of that season. He had to dedicate resources to more effective players that fit his defense like DJ Johnson, Trevin Wallace and Christian Rozebum. Glad we extended this guy.
  25. kungfoodude
    I don't think a 28 year old(which he will be in 2026) safety project is a very wise choice. Also, consider that we had the tremendously more talented and effective version of what you are talking about with Jeremy Chinn and Evero wanted nothing to do with him. Doesn't fit his defense. Simmons is a special teams player at this point in his career. As long as he is very good at that, let it be what it is.
