Gross is playing like shit this year.

gross seems to always start slow. same type of threads were made in 2008 (people were calling for his head because of incessant false starts) and last year when the running game and pass-blocking was nonexistent during the first few games.

gross will get better. and when he does so will everyone else. look for a dominant run game (and O-line play) by the time the bye week is over.

can't wait to see it. although, he is very overrated i'd say. solid, but not great like some around the league think. don't get me wrong...i'm grateful we have him, it could be A LOT worse.

I always say that it is very fitting that Jordan Gross has the number 69...he gives and he takes....

Run Block ...check

Pass Defense...if you not too fast or elite...check

Snap counts....ummm was that on two or did he say hachoo...oh well..FAIL

That was when he was healthy.

Add a Blown Knee recovery this season and I give you what our No.1 draft pick in two seasons will be...Tackle!!

    • You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.
    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
