I understand your apprehension due to this being a Tepper hire. But while you're being dramatic let's not pretend like pairing Bryce Young with Mike Vrabel was a guaranteed recipe for success. Either way whomever was hired was always going to have their work cut out for them because we picked the wrong QB and now we're left to salvage what we can.

I’m not advocating for Vrabel bruh

And you can’t even fire him early. This is why once I figured out Bryce probably isn’t the guy that we were going to be 2 head coaches away. The next 2 seasons are already over for us. 

If you improve everything around him and BY is still the issue he’d get his chance with his own QB before getting canned.

this. he's worked miracles with geno and baker. if canales can't get it done with bryce, it can't be done. after that, the QB whisperer gets his choice of QB.

better than a retread. I've been wanting a young, innovative, offensive mind, and he seems to check that box. a lot of folks wanna rag on tepper / the panthers / this hire and say he's unknown, hasn't had much success yet - but in reality he has been in the league for a while now and had success at every stop. he was there during the Seahawks entire reign of domination, and he had those receivers, Doug Baldwin, Tyler Lockett, David Moore looking like all pros. He then shifted to re-igniting, or igniting Geno Smith's career in general, which still to this day is kinda wow to me. He then went and did it with Baker, which is a really close to home sample size and enough to say - well this is an upgrade. he seems like a breath of fresh air, but I will let it play out before I get too ahead of myself.

everyone keeps saying bring Mike Evans, I say he goes after his boy DK Metcalf instead - I'll take it off air.

Baker had similar stats to what he did as he did in 2018 and 2020. How is that a miracle

Hopefully they’ll grab a later round or udfa qb that he has some interest in. Dalton is cool as the vet but he’s gotta be able to find someone more fitting than Jake Luton for camp

best in the league last year under pressure. that's baker mayfield...best in the league under pressure.

that's a bit of one. also he had one game at Lambeau field where he had a perfect rating. no big deal? he was the first ever to do that. baker mayfield...first ever to have a perfect game at Lambeau field.

the parts where he was at his scariest, he became more than competent. he became good. 

buy it or not. i don't care, but there's plenty for others to see where canales has helped immensely with both baker and geno. 

not excited? fine.

hate it? fine.

constipated? fine.

am i delusional? maybe, but that's fine as well.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
