Drop and give me 5

This is an interesting tidbit:

" In 11-on-11 drills, Bridgewater used his cadence to draw the defense offsides on a third-and-short play. The entire defensive unit — including those players on the sideline and many coaches — then dropped to the ground to do five push-ups. That ended the period."

Can't say I ever witnessed something like this under the Rivera regime.

It's what was needed and a good reason to have as much of a blank slate as we do have. Rhule is having a massive change of culture and it would have been nearly impossible with a lot of the old school players we had. Even guys like Cam and Olsen I can't see playing along too well with that.

Seems corny. I can’t imagine something like that is going to fly if the team doesn’t win within the next 2 years. 

If this “doesn’t fly” with the players, then they better perform and not do dumb sh*t that’s easy not to do, like jumping offsides.

    • This is an often used, yet very misleading argument. There is no such thing as a team not making money in the NFL. Revenue sharing, TV contracts, etc. guarantee every team makes money every season. On the other hand, yes, one can call out an owner for being "cheap," but I'd offer that you should look at their cap situation before making that declaration. So, let's not confuse "cheap" ownership and how much money the team is making because they're 2 completely different things. In 2023, the league set another record with $13B in revenue, working out to $400M per team. https://www.sportico.com/leagues/football/2024/nfl-national-revenue-2023-tv-13-billion-1234786762/ The NFL’s economic model is the envy of every other major sports league, thanks to two main principles. The system benefits from a relatively hard salary cap that restricts owners from NBA-like spending that triggers luxury tax penalties. In 2023, the NFL salary cap was $224.8 million, with each club also on the hook for nine-figures worth of player benefits, stadium costs and team expenses. The other huge plus is the guaranteed check from the league each year that dwarfs the cap before a team sells a single ticket, beer, sponsorship or parking space. The result is that every NFL team is wildly profitable and worth at least $4 billion, with an average franchise value of $5.14 billion last year. Oh, and the team with the least amount of cap space as of yesterday, by some $2.6M, is the Carolina Panthers, with a mere $909k at their disposal. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cap/_/year/2024/sort/cap_maximum_space
    • Trey Lance weren’t for a 4th and that’s with NFL tools. He is the most comparable insta bust that a team overpaid for.  so using that as the market, 5th or 6th for Bryce IMO and we would be lucky.  Basically just a team trying to get around the waivers that was interested in a project.  The not having the physical tools part is the killer.  
    • I'm not interested in seeing ANY more assets spent on offense and we can get a high pick by standing pat on the D and getting those backups snaps.  The more points we need to keep up, the more the offense gets experience and gives us some entertainment.
