So much bad and underwhelming football to begin this season. 
Feel like the NFL is struggling with the changes as the new era begins and the old QBs retire.

Week 1 football has generally been bad for a while now. The camp and practice rules that were agreed to in the last CBA certainly didn't help things.

Wasn't always true, though. People who remember back to Week 1 of the 2003 season could testify to that.

(not just the Panthers game, either)

CJ Stroud played even better than I thought. Watching the highlights, his O-line was awful against the Ravens pressure (although CJ's rating actually went up during blitzes) and their running game was crap. However, CJ converted a LOT of 3rd down with clutch passing. I think he will be fine in Houston. But that line needs to make sure they don't get him injured. Made our line look like the Great Wall of China today.

    • That's the thing, he's this good and not even a finished product.  A lot of great TEs don't have elite twitch and suddenness to them.  He's a football player through and through and I feel that once he gets to eat/sleep football 24/7 in the NFL, he's going to hone his route tree while refining his breaks/cuts. My only knock on him is he's a bit stiff, which is hampers crisp route running.  Warren strikes me as a gym rat football junkie and I can see that cleaned up in short order...in the course of a season or less.  Unless your name is Brock Bowers, TEs usually don't set the League on fire their rookie season.  I could see him contributing heavily in year 1, none-the-less.
    • I am not sure if it was or wasn't his decision to bring him back, but I am willing to bet that he fires him next offseason.
    • Eh. Evero has been here through now 2 coaching regimes. He also pushed for guys like DJ Johnson and has apparently had significant enough input on some free agency moves too. At this point nobody knows about Canales. Even Bryce Young's progress has to be taken with a grain of salt. The rubber has to meet the road in a big way in 2025. But I think it's fair to say the plan from the front office seems to be to let Canales focus on the offense. Although some people could rightly argue he needs to be more hands on across the roster given the fact his defense was 32/32 last season. And look let's be real here. Virtually everyone here is going to agree Rhule was a conman and not a good NFL head coach by any means. But he did swindle our owner out of a generational amount of money. That cannot be understated. With Reich though while he was not the man for the job he didn't even coach here a full season. Saying he didn't develop anyone while giving our front office a pass for their egregiously subpar drafting before and after he was gone (see our 2024 2nd round pick) seems odd. The simple fact of the matter is we need to both draft significantly better and we need to develop talent better.
