    Let the new season begin.

    Watching the Super Bowl brought some things to the forefront for me. We need some bad ass defensive lineman. We need to add at least 1 stud, maybe 2, like Wilkins. Then add a couple of draft picks and keep the strongest of what’s on the current roster. Even with that it’s going to take time...

    Free agents. Stats or Fit?

    I know we look at available free agents and drool at the thought of signing a guy like Chris Jones. When you go to Sportracs there are a lot of players that have name recognition. I’m not that knowledgeable ( maybe not at all) of any particular players who fit in our style of offense or defense...

    What a difference a year makes.

    Last year at this time I honestly already gave up on 2023. Kyler hurt, new GM(rookie) new HC (rookie PEW PEW) , Hopkins destine to leave, an o-line that was in shambles and a defense in even worse shape. We had no cap space to speak of. The fan base mostly had their fill with Kyler. We had an...

    Win your division!

    What is the best road to win the West. There may be 3 teams in the playoffs from the West. One third of your season is played against these teams. What is the best route to take in order to compete with the West? The way I see it we are a couple of years away from building this defense. We will...

    Find me a f/a receiver.

    I believe we need two wr’s (not Brown). Sign a veteran and draft #1. Let’s be real. For one reason or another forget Higgins, Evans and Pittman. I’m looking for a guy that can truly take pressure off our #1. I’m looking for bigger and not a 36 year old in the twilight of his career. Think very...

    If MHJ is gone. What now?

    Like to know what you all think on what we should do assuming MHJ is gone when we are up. I think we have 3 glaring needs that will not be completely filled in free agency. Wide receiver, cb and edge/d-line. Teams currently probably looking for a qb are sitting at 5, 9, 11,12 and 13. If MHJ is...

    Let’s get real here.

    What is your expectations for 2024? Taking YOUR idea of what should happen this off season what are your realistic expectations. I expect to see us move on free agency but probably not as much as we’d like. At minimum I want us to sign a bigger Wr. I’m not expecting Higgins or Pittman. That’s...

    Quarterbacks

    I don’t get to watch a lot of college football. Most of what I know I gather from here. I want to pose a hypothetical question. Let’s say MO decides Kyler is not our guy. We can’t work out a trade to get Williams or Maye and maybe we don’t want to. We can’t head into the season with Tune as...

    Importance of the backup Qb.

    Most times when a team starting Qb goes down for a length of time or for the season consensus seems to write off the teams chances of winning. So how important is it to have a top notch backup Qb ESPECIALLY if the team is a true contender? It would be a shame to build this team around Kyler...

    Win. We ain’t getting MHJ.

    I don’t believe we are going to have a shot at MHJ. The Bears , because of holding the Panthers pick, will take him. Unless Fields totally craps the bed the Bears are going stick with him. Start making other plans.

    Too early to talk free agency?

    We are all wrapped up in winning/ losing and draft position. However, free agency is the next big thing and helps shape what the organization might be targeting. I’m going to be the first to tell you I very limited on how the cap works. All I really know is you can only spend so much on...

    All FOUR phases…

    Of course every game we are going to focus on the progression of Kyler. We’ve covered his game quite a bit in other threads. But there was so much more. Defense. This much maligned group, and deservedly so at times, played their best game of the year. Holding any team to 3 points into the 4th...

    Reassessing Murray.

    So now that the luster of Sunday victory has subsided has anyone have thought about Murray’s performance? I looked at his performance as very good…for his first game back. I also think he will need to get better than he was. I also think the play calling changed a bit more than I was hoping...

    Draft question

    Many of you are very well versed into the college game. I have a question for you. If the draft were today and we were drafting 1st and 15th ( currently) who would you draft with those two picks. From what I read here and the needs of this team would you draft the consensus best wr and...

    Headlines on Monday…

    This site is probably going to blow up Sunday night and Monday morning. If we win it will be refreshing especially if Kyler lights it up….. If we lose but Kyler plays well….. If we lose and Kyler sucks…. It could be ecstasy or a bloodbath.

    So would you be unhappy if…

    Lots of clamoring for Kyler to get back on the field. Many of us want him back sooner rather than later assuming he is 100% healthy, however. If Kyler returns ( let’s say week 10) and we were 2-8, would you be unhappy if his return results winning 5 out of the last 7 games? We would be 7-10 and...

    Six picks…what do you want.

    As things stand right now we have 6 picks in the first 3 rounds. Without considering names or depth of each position in the draft, what “ holes” would you fill? For the sake of continuity base your opinion on the assumption Kyler is our starting qb in 2024. I would like to see: A CB A RB An...

    At this point why is Kyler better than Dobbs?

    Seriously. What makes you think Kyler is better than Dobbs? History? Means nothing. College? Means nothing. Running? Hmm. Dobbs is faster. Murray is quicker. Scrambling? Okay. Accuracy? Didn’t Kyler have the worse deep ball pct? Playing under center? Well, we don’t know. Reading a defense...

    A new dilemma…

    So we’ve been in each of the 3 games this year. I know we’ve all believed this was a tank year. Obviously the coaching staff and players don’t. Can we compete or is this an aberration? Have we benefited by playing teams Gannon was familiar with? So what now? Do we add pieces to potential holes...

    2-0 against the spread!

    What else can we cling to? We all kind of knew the year we were going to experience. The problem is when a team is competitive losses hurt a little bit more because it’s filled with “if’s”. If Dobbs hits Ertz on the first drive.. if Prater hits the fg, and so on. I stated before the season I...

    Great job defense!

    We were so sure our defense would be ripped to shreds. Instead they got 6 sacks, 3 turnovers and scored a touchdown. Anybody reading that game stat would believe that team won the game. I am so disappointed by this offense which was directly a result of poor Qb play. Unfortunately, JG is not...

    IF we win today….

    Who do you think would be the hero? Dobbs?, Connor? Baker? I get this feeling Moore is going to have a break out game today. I know, I know. It’s a big if.

    Go Big Red!

    If there’s one time this season we can have hope, it’s this one. So what the hell… let’s shock the football world!

    How do claims work?

    I know we are 3rd in line but when it is our turn can we pick as many guys as we want or do we pick one and wait like the draft ? Thanks in advance.
