I forgot about that; I did just see a stat today that they're allowing 3.7 yards per play which is the lowest ypp since the 70's or something...this might get very ugly, very fast. Always possible for a surprise I guess lol

This is a pretty weird kick everyone while they're down thread, and that's coming from someone who also isn't dedicating time or care into this team (as in myself). I think we all know the answer to how it feels, and if you aren't sure, click a thread, any thread it's clearly filled with despair here...and plenty of overreaction.

Realistically he will at least win 3 or 4 more games; if for no other reason than 'Any Given Sunday' in the NFL, and there is talent on this roster. I wonder where that puts him all-time. It probably shoots him way down that list. (yes I know everyone thinks we'll lose out I don't need to be convinced )

In hindsight I still think that was a good trade at the time. Especially knowing they'd normally give up a 2nd, and two 3rds for nothing. I guess they're just lucky they'd traded too much for Darnold already.

It's hilarious what a win will do to morale. Last week the world was ending this week people (not talking about OP) seem ready to talk about the Super Bowl. This place needed some hope though, it was just miserable. But to address your point, that win last week was horrible on O, and Defense looked very good... but the Saints just looked horrible on Offense themselves. I'm sure that's how teams feel playing Carolina at this point. However, a win is a win...and sometimes wins bring momentum.

I saw the same; I know he was injured but someone of his caliber should be laying out for that ball.

I personally would never enter a chinese restaurant and complain about them serving chinese food.

lol ok!

I don't follow as closely as I once did; but I actually don't hear about this topic as much as I'd expect. For a franchise that's had this much QB failure lately, to miss out on what looks to be one of this generations elite QB's by one pick... Maybe everyone has tried to block it out

I'm just now looking this up, and realizing it after reading the 'What will be Rhule's biggest regret' thread....and man, idk if there would've been any way to trade up. Just imagine though, the franchise trajectory with Herbert at QB. Instead we got.....Derrick Brown lol (I guess I should expect everyone to say Rhule would've ruined him too )

I don't want to call him a bust; but I feel like by now if a player is ever going to be a pro bowler they've at least shown you one splash of that.

True but I also don't expect our very injury prone RB who is missing practice in in Week 3, to come out and admit he's having injury issues. (Especially if he's slated to play.) The news doesn't make the report; the team does.

idk how much you can lie on an injury report; but I kind of wondered why they didn't say it was another body part just for the optics.

It begins!

I don't know that I hate it. You could see that he didn't get the ball a ridiculous amount of times this week (if I recall). With CMC as someone said earlier, he's such an elite multi-dimensional threat it makes sense to always have him accounted for. As long as they aren't literally using him every play I don't mind.

Haha I remember being a teen and going to FanFest writing up notes for The Huddle.

It's not even that he looked big, there are plenty of bigger coaches... he just looked stiff and dumb. Which might just be him lol.

Not to be smart ; but just typical fluff, politically correct answers etc. As I was typing this I did learn Baker is taking Johnny's number after negotiating lol

I was kind of wondering if this would just be the equivalent of a Week 1 preseason game for them. lol So good to know!

I only wonder, if he's as amazing as his accolades show...why has he had to bounce around so much.

I don't mind what Tepper said. At first I was just like everyone else; but if you're sticking with him this year, you should want him to have pressure, but not to the point he is already paranoid and considering failing before it even goes downhill.

Yeah I'm wondering just how much money they wasted on that project overall. Granted even $800M is only 5% of his net worth, if I did that correctly

Use AMA Style format and college level diction to be considered good at my job which may not require being grammatically correct. Got it!

Yeah; all of the one-year deals show me that they're attempting to sneak into the playoffs, and be a contender the next year. You don't build team chemistry with all 1 year deals.
