McCoy money... Not too shabby

Said the same thing in another thread. I thought it would take a multi-year contract to woo him but it seems he wanted to be here and wanted to win. He must see our guys are hungry to win and we are all in this year.  I know I am. Imagine how much fun that game in London is going to be now with our defense. Now if we can shore up the safety position, Hurney will have hit a grand slam.

McCoy meant it when he said he wanted to play for a contender. He's played us twice every year since he's been drafted. He would know us better than any other team out there that's looking for a DT.

The Panthers aren’t a ‘contender’. Neither are the Browns or Ravens. I’d be surprised if we make the playoffs, even more surprised Cam’s shoulder holds up all season and flabbergasted if we actually aren’t one and done in the playoffs. Those aren’t things people get surprised about talking contenders.

Over and over people on this forum about disrespect and haters and being underdogs. Again, not something bonefish contenders have. Maybe it’s a good thing, when we are expected contenders, we fall flat.

 But out of the three teams interested in him I think we are his best choice.

      My point is they were looking at the whole year with Bryce, and into the future.  Legette is really a great guy to run down and compete for a ball with a DB. He (Bryce) couldn't complete poo down field (in 2023). The back was because he has the receiving skills. That is what set him apart (besides the ACL rehab).  My view of it was he (Bryce) needed to be trending up and showing he could do something the second half of the season. I certainly didn't expect to win a lot under any circumstances, considering the multiple factors including a new offensive system, so competing early wasn't something I expected to do.   If you look at it that way it might be more understandable than the view that places top priority on winning games out of the gate. This was always going to be a learning year. The complaining about that wasn't realistic to me. Inconsistent with reality. People put unreasonable expectations about winning, while predicting we'd maybe win 4 or 5 games. It was a little illogical.  Bro, I have watched just like you have, the steady decline year by year, under Tepper's yoke. We weren't winning so take care of your business that gets you competitive and pointing up at year's end. Max expectations on my end. Honestly it was all about suffering through what we had to, and allowing Young to show what he was. I knew or thought I knew, but poo necessitated that other people be convinced.

      Yep-It was. Heck..Plenty here were thinking we should shore up the OL or DL if the top WRs were gone.  Or maybe a DB.  Not only that, but Ladd was available at WR, Newton was available at DL, Frazier, P-J, Kneeland, talent was there and we reached for a guy many had reported was around 70ish overall and at least a 3rd round grade for many teams. Did the same exact thing with Mingo a year prior over legit WR talent in Jayden Reed and Rashee Rice. Also had JuJu Brents, Branch, Tuli RIGHT f’n there for us.

      XL can become the best friend of a strong armed gunslinger QB. Let him go deep and jump ball against the CB. DC wants him to be his Evans/DK. Bryce would have been better with a Ladd quick short route runner. I think DC was building an offense for a traditional QB in case the Young experiment fails which it looks like it is…
