I don’t see a path for a winning record in 2023.   

Like my late mother-in-law used to say, "What you don't see will make a whole 'nother world."

The team is in flux. There are far too many unknowns to see any path right now, beginning with HC.

Again for the record I would 100% being sniffing around Baltimore to see what it would take.  But thats assuming Jackson would even want to come here

Like they said in the broadcast yesterday, our franchise will be an attractive place to land next year due to having all of the cornerstones in place aside from a QB.  Based on the HC hire, I think that will be the determining factor for whether or not someone like Jackson would want to come here.

The idea of a new HC coming in and doing a mega deal year 1 out of the gate is worst case scenario. Maybe year 2 if they have a good to great learning curve but never year 1. After the Watson swing I don't want to see anyone in house on the buying end of a mega deal anytime soon.

A new and competent offensive minded HC could be competing and winning by the end of the first year with a vet or a rookie, with some luck thrown in. I don't think amyone here now fits the minimum of that so it will hopefully be new faces. Just draft a QB, find a vet if it's not on of the top 2 guys and do it again in 2024 if it's not good enough and until we find a long term QB option.

This year is all about telling us what we need to do better next year. Staff, personel and dumb direction that got us in this damn mess.

I havent followed Jackson and his contract negotiations at all but why would he want to leave Balt?  Thats the epitome of a stable franchise.

From what I read it's mainly due to them not being able to surround him with playmakers. Jackson also represents himself now, and probbaly wants to make a statement in the contract negotiation process. He wants to be paid like Watson.

 

I know he wasnt happy with the Hollywood trade... image.png.d676f642240756b2df384ffd61651e6e.png

A lot of folks said that for the Giants coming into this season. And there they are, right in the thick of it.

Right folks, right coaching... and stay away from injuries.

And it's not like our division is highly competitive anymore, by any stretch of the imagination.

Who are these “some?”  The only player not under contract next year is Bozeman. Everyone here knows that it is time to draft a center or see if mays can do it.

I've been barking up that tree for a few years now.  I like Mayes as a solid IOL depth--IOL#4.  I'd rather draft a center that has played it his entire college career.

It shouldn't take 2 years to turn this into a winning team. It's been 5 years already.

Despite what Tepper and Rhule's dumbasses think, it doesn't take 7 years to make a winning team in the NFL.

It will take at least 2 years if we draft the right QB. If by year 3, we haven’t been to the back playoffs, it will probably not happen with the next regime

    • I said earlier today I have no problem with that as it was need, but i feel like if you have to spend that much money on 2 guards then you probably think your QB needs it that much. Sad reality is bryce was still horrible. 
    • I thought about this a lot watching the game today. We got whooped by a team that was just way more talented than us overall and was largely because we traded a poo load of compensation with them to just to get bryce. It's a agonizing feeling and like you said it just seems like bryce hasn't took it seriously enough. He didn't give 2 shits about not playing in the pre season and obviously didn't rationalize just how bad he has been cuz he was surprised he got benched.  It's just infuriating and knowing it sets you back for years is hard enough. It's a lot easier watching other teams make these horrible decisions. 
    • Ugh, here we go again. People need to stop falling for the Heisman/College hype and thinking he'll have the same type of impact in the NFL, because he won't (and side note, he's probably not even the Heisman favorite anymore, the kid from Boise State is going to put up numbers that are too good to not give him the award). Let's get this out of the way first, he will NOT be a full time 2 way player in the NFL, it's just not possible.  He can either be a full time WR or a full time CB who then gets maybe 5-10 snaps on offense a game to see if he can break off a big play. Once you remove the two way factor from him, he's just a great CB prospect and a very good WR prospect, but he's not a generational prospect on either side of the ball on it's own. If he decides to be a full time CB, I'm not against drafting him because it's a need. But if he decides to be a WR, there is no circumstance where he can be taken over T-Mac.  He'll be more of a slot WR in the NFL due to his size, particularly his slim frame.  T-Mac on the other hand is a true elite outside WR prospect, and those just don't grow on trees, there's only a small handful of players in the NFL with his size, hands, and speed/agility combination. To me, that's the differentiator when comparing Hunter to T-Mac as a WR.  If he was a plodding big WR, like Kelvin Benjamin was, it obviously changes things, but he's not, he has more than enough speed and agility to his game that when combined with his 6'5" frame, it's a no brainer for me, he's going to be WR #1 on every team's board. For Hunter, there is nothing wrong with being a true generational collegiate talent and just a very good to great NFL prospect, and being able to separate the two when evaluating him for the NFL is very important. I'm not bashing him (looking at you Cam), but I'm just being realistic about what he will be in the NFL, which is a potential Top 10 CB, but not a Top 10 WR, but like one of the best #2 guys in the NFL or a mid to low end #1
