C’mon now they do have RYAN BATES… 1 hour ago, Sugashane said: But we saw Mahomes get his *** beat in the Super Bowl and what did they do? Invested heavily in OL. Exactly. And after watching Fields get his *** best all season long we need to do the same. FA or draft - I don’t care. But it’s gotta happen. Nothing else will ever reach its potential if we can’t protect Fields in the pocket consistently. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been a broken record that you need to draft one OL in the first 4 rounds basically every year and stand by it. If you can develop lineman worth a damn you will have to replace some every few years and there's no way to hit every time. OL NEEDS to get stacked. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence my proposal to go heavy FA on the OL this year in my mock off-season posted a few days back. More than anything it’s to catch the line up with competent, stable bodies and then implement basically what you’re suggesting here to keep talented OL always in waiting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though if Jenkins has a bad back/neck problems going forward that would be unfortunate. Still glad we have him. He is flat dominate at times which is rare at NFL level. A neutralizing stalemate block is a good block. He is actually moving and at times pancaking people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to warn them. Their fans anyway. This is a 39 year old Rodgers coming off a terrible season. You are probably getting him for 1 year and that year is unlikely to result in anything more than a wildcard win at best followed by picking toward end of first round again. Plus NY Media will hate him quickly and he has no good will built up in NY like he does winning a SB in GB to deflect it. Has soon as he goes on a mini-losing streak it will be nasty. Madness to make this move. Makes even less sense than trading for Favre at end of his career. And that is best result they can hope for.

Madmike90 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Leon Lett was an assistant DL coach in Dallas since 2011…the same year Flus arrived in Dallas…he has worked with a ton of quality DL over the years…would have no issue brining his experience in here in a similar role.

Really thought they would stick with Steve Wilks there This puts them squarely in the Franchise QB market, which is more likely through the Draft (or maybe Derek Carr) unless he wants to try the Carson Wentz route again, although I cant imagine a New HC would want to do that.

He's the first head coach in Panthers history to be hired with an offensive background. I guess 7 out of the 9 candidates they interviewed were offensive guys, with this ultimately being the deciding factor over Wilks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
