  1. Only one team ends up happy at the end of the season. Winning more games is a good thing no matter what.
  2. I feel like Young is going to take a lot of sacks and prob have a lot of deep INTs early in his career. Just like the urge of a rookie RB want to bounce things outside it feels like he’s so used to success it’s going to to be hard to realize he probably can’t bail out of a pocket the same way.
  3. It’s probably already been said but Wilson is much “bigger” than Young in many ways, it’s not an accurate comparison. His wingspan and hand size are off the charts relative to his height.
  4. It can’t be that bad. I don’t think drafting one of of not the highest rated QB in any draft is a mistake. They are shooting their shot and trying to support the QB in the process. If it blows up it blows up, but at they’re trying.
  5. I’m as excited as I can be. There has been so much change I can’t help but have lowered expectations. I kind of worry that the patience has run out on losing even though you would want a new coach to get a few years. Hopefully Reich starts hot.
  6. Not sure any local reporter has ever distinguished themselves as far as reliability etc
  7. If we draft Young we pretty much have to have to at least try to have the best offensive line in the NFL.
  8. Deep dropbacks make me think of Shula and shudder lol
  9. Yeah I think that’s partially why. Picked the sure thing.
  10. Honestly a “Twitter” sticky would be nice. Any truly new information would have a full article. This stage of the draft season is rough.
  11. It really is the “no such thing as bad publicity” concept on steroids. Clicks and traffic are king. The news has to feel “new” even if nothing has changed. Cable television made hot takes a thing and the internet more or less is just rotting our brains for a multitude of reasons.
  12. If you draft Young then O-line becomes a necessary strength. Things can change quickly. You can’t afford to ruin him.
  13. Yeah if we pick Young he’ll need elite protection for sure. I like the Washington pick, he’ll hopefully be an elite blocker day 1 like Gronk was.
  14. I feel like he could probably only throw the ball for 2.5 games before his shoulder gives out again. Sad times. I just hope he saves his money and lives a long happy life.
  15. I love all the murder mystery mini series they do. There’s another true detective coming too. Succession and Industry are great. Then all the classics like Sopranos or The Wire I get it free with AT&T so that helps.
  16. It’s a tough spot. With Cam the other QB options weren’t anywhere close. It was basically a choice between him or other blue chip talent at other positions. Stroud has the least compromises overall.
  17. Is this real because that sounds like an interesting topic to google
  18. Did you know the mystery flavor of the dumdum lollipop is just two random flavors. Instead of cleaning the machine they just let the new flavor push out the old flavor at the factory until a certain tolerance is hit.
  19. I worry that he might have overplayed his hand. I’m sure other teams might pay him more than the Ravens but I doubt anyone will pay him huge money if that’s what he is after. Ultimately he ends up with a worse franchise and a worse team. But if he can tens of millions of extra dollars that’s great for him and his families future.
  20. If you stank then you still probably stink. No matter how stellar your offseason was the odds are that a stinky team with all new staff and a rookie QB is still gonna stink(at least the first year). It’s just conventional logic. If the pick is Young then people will really want him to fail to prove themselves right that a small QB can’t cut it. If the bears look strong early in 2023 then the media will be salivating for them to have a shot at Marvin Harrison Jr with a high 1st. Overall the Panthers failing will be a much more exciting national story than success unless the team storms out of the gate. Then by mid season we’ll be the dark horse SB pick clickbait that pisses everyone off.
  21. I always heard rumors from his time at USC too but I guess nothing came from it
  22. Wilson’s arm length and hands are huge for his size. So I don’t feel like the comparison holds up unless Young is also an outlier in that area too. also prime Russell Wilson was just on an incredible team. Those draft classes were outstanding. Who knows how things go without that supporting cast. It’s a little bit of a chicken/egg thing too.
  23. Yeah CMC was mad we traded him to a better team lol
