I recall Bodden looking good enough to merit a decent contract before. Haven't watched him this season though.

He was in the 2nd year of a 4-year, $22 mil contract. The Pats switched from mostly zone coverage to a lot of man-to-man press coverage, especially earlier in the season (they've started going back to more zone in the last few games) which wasn't really their secondary's forte. I think Bodden will pass through waivers and wind up going to a contender. I could see the Saints or Cowboys going after him.

Bodden actually does have a connection with the Panthers, but it's on the wrong side of the ball.

Panther OC Rob Chudzinski was on the Browns coaching staff in 2004 (TE coach) and 2007 (OC). Bodden was in Cleveland both years (played there from 2003 through 2007).

Receiver coach Fred Graves was also on the Browns staff in 2004, so he'd have been coaching guys going against Bodden in practice.

      Nobody likes moral victories, but...

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔

      Team is looking good for next season

      I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
