I live way in the past lol, recent examples escape me but the Pats cleaned up off of backup QBs there for a little while.

If you want a better return, you act like you don’t need to sell.

I am surprised we have clawed our way back to almost level in the 1st quarter.

A pick like that would allow you to package it to move up for a player. Say someone in the 2nd you really like slips into the third but you know won’t last and you are picking 12th in the round. There you go, give your third and a later pick and get your guy. Currency is currency. I don’t think this is happening though; anyone that wants to trade for a RB will want Rico. Of course you could use Chuba to leverage more for Rico. Say no way you are trading him but we’ll trade Chuba. Make them talk you into trading Rico.

I fine it odd that this would be a thing and just a week later he is on the block. Was Chuba being forced into more carries to showcase him? Conspiracy theorists come on down.

That’s when you get into essentially buying a draft pick. They make the return worth the financial grief.

That is all about staving off an unhappy fan base. Probably strongly encouraged by the boss. You can’t have a good option in the wings with him stinking it up. People are not patient any more. Just look at this place.

If he hit those kinds of numbers my jaw would drop. Some of the holes against Dallas were literally truck sized. He did his part and was great but that ain’t gonna happen every time.

The guy that picks against the spread, that always comes out behind, picked the Panthers.

I was with you until that. I have to see that.

I thought Andy had a stroke.

Always good to clarify. Here is the thing, his best games are not as bad as some make out but his bad games are bottom 20s worthy. So he needs to stop that or he won’t be worth even finishing the contract. Which I know is guaranteed just sayin. I think he could play his way out of that option year unless he raise his floor these last games. I am glad we have them to see.

We don’t know how Rico will look the next 9 games. Well, maybe against the Saints. But people are goi g to commit resources to stopping him now that they have seen what we did with him.

I think those four games let the cat of of the bag. Two where Rico crushed it, two where Chuba didn’t and Rico still looked good. Probably have to eat some of Chuba’s contract. I don’t know how that really helps us.

Does that mean you think 20 will cut it?

I think I am saying they matured the last two or three years and wondering if we may start to see more guys that follow that pattern, than we used to. And I probably should have said couple of years to include Jones PS I also think that these guys get new OCs and some of them, like Darnold went through them like socks. It will stunt their growth short term but maybe in the long run it makes them more adaptable. They have seen so much different terminology etc.

You could probably capitalize and bold that ‘lot’.

Rumor has it that we were behind because of him in some of those and that one GWD he didn’t even throw the ball. I need to see him leave no doubt. He hasn’t gotten there. maybe he can. In this decade.

Still, how much better is a flawed Darnold than what we have been watching?

I wish he’d have finished that Jets game so we could see if he’d have sealed it or blown it. Both were in play.

I agree. I have seen them too. And seen the pretzel logic turning a game where he was pretty bad yet we some how still won, into GWD and big time throw stats and thinking they are dunking on us.

I am gonna say that when Bryce plays his best it doesn’t look like just anybody could do better. But a bad clock right twice a day. And that’s about as often as he plays like that. He has had a whole lot of games where he is awful.

“The Panthers think they are building something…..” Never mind that it looks like like Obama’s Presidential library.

Have a Tums.
