Christensen, Mays and Company did a good job, especially giving up only a single sack (and that on a wonky play).

Not bad at all 🙂

BC and Mays were up and down. Got ragdolled a few times and allowed pressures. Still solid against a great pass rush team. Especially for backups.

Maybe we finally have some OL depth for the first time in about 15 years.

For those who want us to tank: Who in this draft has franchise QB tendencies and skills that will translate to the next level?

I honestly don’t see a single player with franchise QB characteristics.

I’m still not sold on Bryce long term, but we have needs all over in order to set the next young QB up for success.

No just stay where we are let the chips fall where they may. We've made our bed just have to roll with it no more trades.

eh depends on the cost and what the selection is. ward, sanders, ewers are the only ones in play right now imo. as of today, im not moving up for any of that lot. but there is a lot of games left to see what they all do as the pressure mounts for them all.

then again i was all for standing pat in 2023 and not making the trade. let a non QB come on down and ride sam/walker+1 for another year and build up. gosh how that could have been. stroud may have been worth the cost, idk.

eh, would not shock me if 1 of the top 3 QBs works out between Ward (successful in 3 stops already), Ewers, or Sanders. i still have doubts on all 3 atm, but lots of games left.

You cant evaluate them against bottom 5 teams either

Sure you can.

Start of this season, we were the worst team in the NFL, by far.  Now we are beating teams.  Not by much, and they are bad, but its something. 

They say that to be the best, you have to beat the best.  But its also true that to turn a team around, you have to start by winning games against bad teams.  And this is a start.  Nothing more, nothing less.

Ewers melts down against competent defenses. Shadeur plays nobodies and has average arm strength and Ward takes insane gambles with the football.

Out of the three, I’d probably go with Shadeur, but daddy ain’t letting him come here. He’ll pull the Eli bull****.

Ward is the best out of the 3, is his only flaws is sometimes takes risks..that can be fixed

      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.
