Solid move.

Neal is a solid shooter that can also knock down the three.

I'm not a fan of Ridnour but his deal is expiring so it appears that he was just an add in.

Overall it appears like we acquired Neal for at least two years and only lost one million in cap space in the process.

Good trade.

 

Ridnour can run the PnR very well.  He's a traditional PG that we can use instead of the ball hog driver Sessions is.  I don't think we lost out here but gained.  I don't mind this trade.  Two things I always thought we needed was more shooting and more of a passing PG.  So not bad.

We're trying to play the inside out game with Big Al, so bringing in a guy like Neal who is an above-average 3 pt shooter for a guy like Sessions who is a below-average 3 pt shooter makes perfect sense to me. 

 

Ridnour can replace Sessions PG minutes AND he's an expiring contract.

 

Like it!

      well, the comparison is to last year.  The OL is a 180 degree from that.... and overall on the season they have had better skill talent for the same QBs behind a MUCH better OL.    So yeah, the O not looking any better overall is a red flag for Canales.

      I just want somebody to settle into that Hangartner role and I may give Mays too much credit. He played so well early and has fell off since injuries crept into his vocabulary.  He was struggling to get push on those goal line runs today.

      You cannot say it doesn't matter who is playing QB ever in any circumstance. The first two games of the season, Bryce was standing in the pocket with time missing throws left and right. We were running the ball well, but even the gimme throws Canales was setting up, Bryce was missing. Then you start Dalton, boom easy win at Las Vegas. By week four's end, three of our best defenders are seriously injured, center injured, 2nd best veteran WR hurt, and best veteran WR quitting on the team.  Canales is a rookie head coach, and he definitely has had some see what sticks moves. But players are being schemed open, the rookies are progressing nicely, and you have the albatross of some terrible lack of talent to phase out. I give him credit alone for pulling Mingo, Thomas, and going with the better/younger producing players. The scheme is better, he just needs better players and I am not going to write him off until he gets more talent, starting with QB!
