He doesn't know Xs and Os that great. I am not sure how they would know that, but that is what they say. It seems league kind of agrees with them. At least for now. It's a results based league. I never saw much difference between Mike Vrabel and Dan Campbell. Campbell was given a little more to work with and has produced more. Vrabel was given less and now he's out of a job. Don't get me wrong, who you hire matters but so does having the right players in place. I have little doubt that if you put Marc Trestman at the helm of the Tom Brady Patriots, probably not much would change. It's just the nature of things. If you hit big enough on a certain part of your roster building, it can cover up a lot of warts elsewhere. I think it's an apt parallel for where the Bears are right now. Justin Fields might not be a guy that can cover up a lot of warts, but that doesn't mean he can't be a competent QB worthy of building a team around.

chisoxguy7 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 If you really want to point to where things started going downhill for the Titans, it was trading AJ Brown and expecting Treylon Burks to be the same guy. They've been struggling ever since. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dll2000 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I am baffled why he is being sidelined by Fox. I guess because of Brady, but no one has heard Brady yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romo came in and gave more football insights during preplay moments, showing he still was watching film and I loved that, but then he slowed down. I haven't gotten that at all from Olsen. If anything Romo might give more insights on pre-snap events but Olsen is MUCH better post-snap. Olsen is a better personality and doesn't have those empty statements as often. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZBearsFan Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 For obvious Bears reasons, I wonder how safe Tyler Lockett’s roster spot is in Seattle. They’re currently over the cap and likely have big contracts to give out to Leonard Williams (who they just traded a 2024 2 and 2025 5 for midseason) and Jordyn Brooks, and their new HC is a defensive-minded HC. They also have DK locked in and just drafted JSN to be the future at the position. SEA can create $17M in cap space by making Lockett a post-6/1 cut. He’ll be 32 this year but hasn’t really shown signs of slowing down yet, and as a short term veteran option for Williams he would make a ton of sense for us IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was hurt all year, so who knows how he plays into the plans also. Lockett wasnt on my radar of potential cuts before the turnover in Seattle, but he sure is interesting now. (If they hit the full reset, they could just move on from Geno. Saving about $14m or $22m depending) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(If they hit the full reset, they could just move on from Geno. Saving about $14m or $22m depending) They seem more like a team that would take Nix/Penix in R2 than a full reset to me, especially if they end up hiring former UW OC Ryan Grubb as their OC as is the current hot rumor. They can clear over $32M in cap space by cutting Jamal Adams (seemingly a given) and Lockett as post-6/1, so given the state of the rest of their roster (not a full tear down IMO) that makes the most sense to me. I liked Eskridge quite a bit coming out but he’s got 17 catches for 122 yards in 3 seasons at this point. Some of that is injury, but he just hasn’t done anything when he’s been healthy either. That seems like a complete whiff at this point. That’s Velus Jones tier stuff. 😒😒 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
