Not sure there will be a better game than that today. Wow.

It's funny to watch Hill and think about how much different The Golden Calf of Bristol's career could have been. Had he been a lower round draft pick with no expectations and been willing to just play whatever position was needed, he might still be playing somewhere. Hype and Hubris. The The Golden Calf of Bristol Story.

He's the king of putting up good numbers when it doesn't count or the spotlight isn't on him. Pressure or expectations kill him.

Yeah, I think it helps that it's college coach versus college coach. I think that is why Rhule hasn't had a problem beating Kingsbury.

This seems like it was predictable. When CMC is out....he's out.

No, I think he was more the elite tier possession WR than anything else.

It's amazing how quickly MT went from one of the best WR's in the league to a complete afterthought.

Well, in theory improvement on offense should just flat out lead to victory. Almost without question.

Make no mistake, there is more than one way for us to poo the bed in this game.

I do think we actually win this. We seem to have their number under Kingsbury. If not.......oh wee mayne.

I know....I think we are close to a 2nd Cup too.

More than two Super Bowls for even elite QB's is relatively rare. Get me one and I will be happy. Anything else is icing.

Having an elite QB makes up for a lot of flaws on any team and it can elevate you to SB contention in a hurry. That is the advantage of going the elite QB route. Otherwise you need an elite team to cover up for your QB deficiency. The instances of the former happening are much more than the latter over the last 25 years.

Ian did have a lot to do with it. It will continue to decline as fan interest wanes, to be sure. But Ian had a big impact.

Yep. I took an L on mine.

I don't really know that I consider Fitterer that kind of guy either. He might be or he might not be. Regardless, someone there has to understand football at the level necessary to see the same vision as the prospective coach and understand how likely their methods are to be successful. The funny thing in hindsight is how we almost all got excited about some of the ridiculous BS that Rhule was selling. Not many of us as laymen saw through what now seems to obvious was just obvious snake oil.

I think if you want to get that innovative guy, you have to get people to interview him that understand what that looks like. Tepper doesn't. He can't ask in depth football questions and have any idea what is BS and what isn't. That is quite literally how we ended up with Matt Rhule. So he has to get some trusted and more importantly KNOWLEDGEABLE football people around him to find that next head coach. He can't be the guy making that choice because he quite simply just doesn't know enough to discern that. Until he has the right kind of support system around him in the organization, we don't have a lot of hope. Tepper isn't going to be able to bridge that knowledge gap my himself.

Well this was my support ticket.

Chuba is a personal favorite of Ms. Rhule. That's probably about it.

You think he wants to work for Rhule? You think we had to get a guy like McAdoo by accident?

FTFY

If that can be maintained(OL) we will be in good shape foelr the future.

Wow. It's early yet but those are very impressive.

3 WR, 2 TE AND a Flex?? JFC. That is brutal. Yeah, I mean in that scenario, it's just largely blind gambling. Pick someone that is in the top 4 WR's on a decent offense ans hope for the best. Maybe look at utilization rates vs. production and see if there is something that doesn't quite match up that could change.
