Washington Football Team finalizing deal with Marty Hurney

I'm 50/50 on this. Half of me says I can't believe Ron is this damn stupid and committed to staying within his comfort zone of familiarity. The other half of me says how could I be so stupid not to completely see this coming. Ron gonna Ron. -

Read my other posts on this thread.

He threw for more TDs this year in 10 games than Teddy has ever thrown in a season. Teddy's career INT percentage is 50% higher too. I'm not sitting here arguing that Trubisky is the answer, but he's better than Teddy. Teddy turns it over more often while throwing for less TDs.
-
Yeah. Trubisky looked better than Teddy.
-
Specifically referring to the "one of the worst starting QBs he'd ever seen" comment. Trubisky is better than Teddy. Easily.
-
Did you catch any Panthers games this year?
-
I was advocating trying to trade for him last year when they were pursuing FA QBs to compete with him. But with Teddy to hit us for $20M next year even if he's cut, I don't like the idea of adding another mid-level type FA QB. Between the hit from Teddy and paying Trubisky, we'd basically be spending elite QB money in terms of cap but without having an actual elite level QB. I would've rather tried to trade for Trubisky than give Teddy that contract, but what's done is done. We're basically down to the long shot of trying to trade for Watson or relying on the draft.
-
I was hoping we'd have Hunter Long. Dude can play. Not a jaw dropping athlete, but he's just a good football player. Runs great routes and catches anything near him.
-
Honestly, no.
-
They have to clear a TON of cap. I think that N.O. roster is gonna look a lot different next season.

I've said it several times. Please let this happen. Let the WFT get the full experience of what they've signed up for. -
Define "a lot". We ran more cover two in Ron's later years than his early years, but I don't recall many games at all where it was our primary defense.
-
I think what you're missing is that two deep safeties absolutely does not automatically equal Tampa 2. We also played a lot of quarters coverage under Ron, particularly in obvious passing situations.
-
Sorry man, you're just not right. Most of those times when we had safeties behind the CBs were were actually playing man. We usually went with a two look when we played man though we did do some man coverage with a single high safety. Usually when Luke was covering down the seam it was because he was playing man. We did run SOME Tampa 2 looks, but it was far from our norm.
-
Yeah, I see no scenarios where we trade for Watson and retain #8. But yeah, if you land Watson and have #8 and a good option at LT or CB wasn't there then I'd consider Parsons if I couldn't trade down.
-
LOL! No. Our CBs played very little underneath because we were primarily a cover 3 team.
-
We ran some cover 2 looks. Every team does. But cover 2 was never our primary base scheme.
