If it's only a one year deal it's not a bad investment.

 

And what kind of a team do you think Wharton transforms our team into exactly?

If we are going to be good, we are going to be good regardless of Wharton or not.  The same applies the other way around.  Wharton is a 32 year old guard coming off a season ending injury and he wasn't good anymore before he left.  He offers us very little regardless of if he is better than what we have right now.

 

And I am not sold at all that the Wharton I saw playing LG in 2011 is better than the Williams I see playing RG in 2013.

That's find Mage, you can have your opinion.

However, when your franchise quarterbacks' health depends on the offensive line, don't act like it's such a stupid idea to upgrade it.

 

I never said don't upgrade the offensive line.  Please read my posts. 

 

Signing Travelle Wharton is not going to somehow make me feel any better about our offensive line or Newton's health.  Can we stop acting like Wharton is the second coming of Hutchinson?  If this was Brandon Moore, I would feel differently.  But Wharton was trash in 2011.  People seem to overlook this.  He is coming off a season ending injury and hasn't participated in anything recently.  His "strength" beforehand was run blocking anyway, at least if I remember correctly.  

 

He sucks.  Signing him is not going to make Newton feel any better about himself in the pocket.  Our offensive line is just full of guys who excel (or for better word, are better at) at run blocking a lot more than pass blocking, and that includes Kalil.

every week we are either going to win the superbowl or land the number one draft pick by october. preseason spawns more reactionaries than any single game during the regular season.

On my calendar, the Annual Hyperbole Festival comes right after the season opener.

I think that's the biggest event of it's kind. Preseason isn't far behind though.

All I want this year is to make the Playoffs. Show that we are capable of being a competitive team. From tonight's game, we got a long way to go.

 

We have been competitive ever since Rivera got here. Only 1-3 games where we got blown out. The season imo rests on the OL and Cam.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol Honestly, it might sound dumb, but I've had this idea in my head of a specific picture I really want to get with him since draft night. Basically I want it to be of the two of us sitting on the floor next to each other with the picture from behind.  Ideally it would have been with us both wearing T-Mac jerseys (and me wearing an Arizona hat that has block A logo on the back of it too), but since they won't have baby versions of those for a bit and that does seem like a waste of money on something he'll grow out of in a few months, I think I'll go with this that I've found on Amazon for like 12 bucks........ I'll get this made with T-Mac's #4 but then my Nephew's first name (which incidentally starts with a T, so I've already joked to my sister that she needs to change his middle name to something with "Mc" or "Mac" in it so i can call him T-Mac lol) Just think that would make for a really cool picture for me to have of him at this age (just over 13 months now), with the two of us wearing our #4's.  It's the type of thing I can absolutely see myself getting it printed out by Shutterfly on one of those canvas like prints to hang on my wall. And seeing as they live in NYC with me in Michigan, not sure the next time I'll see him again as I can't just drive on down the street for a picture when the jersey arrives, so was hoping I'd be able to take advantage of seeing them at the end of the month to get this picture, but it would all be dependent on the jersey (and this custom onesie) being shipped in time.

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By PNW_PantherMan · Posted

      His piece of the pie is only going to get smaller unless there are serious injuries.  Unless the actual pie becomes that much larger, ie Bryce being Kurt Warner, I don't think there's room for him to breakout.  Just like there's not room for JT Sanders to break out beyond a couple hundred yards receiving and a few TDs. I don't think a lot of people understand the volume that XL got last year.
