    The Athletic: Hawks are #17 in their Power Rankings

    Agree. I think we were seen as a 10 to 12 ranked team when it was thought we were returning the skill players from '24. I think the 17 rank is healthy skepticism as to whether Darnold can improve on last year and in response to an unproven WR corp and OC. Its a week 1 rank. If we show the...

    Sam Howell traded to Vikings

    First, i have been on his side from the beginning. Its not me who draws lines and picks sides and cant get beyond a binary, 'Pete v John', 'Geno v Russ', 'Geno v Lock', etc oversimplified, nonsensical debate. John hasnt shown the ability to draft solid, realistic QBs to groom behind an...

    Pick 223: Damien Martinez

    Agree. Love the way he runs.

    This is the best draft in over 10 years

    Indifferent about the draft. I like the first 3 picks and the fact that we have a FB in the equation. But i dont see a bonafide wr1 on this team. I think folks are overvaluing JSNs numbers last year MAYBE not accounting for the fact that he was the default schemed 'goto' by virtue of the way...

    Pick 92: Jalen Milroe

    Tell me exactly what evidence there is to show the Hawks know college qb evaluation.

    Pick 92: Jalen Milroe

    Word is he cant process complex defense quickly... at the college level. Thats a pretty necessary attribute to be a top qb. I think MM sees shades of Lamar Jackson. Hope he is right.

    Pick 92: Jalen Milroe

    But what exactly has Hill done in his career? The 'slash' qb has never elevated a team to anything great. This dude over getting Darnold a better weapon on offense? Or depth on the o line or d line?

    Nickname for Grey Zabel?

    XX He is big as F and the stache makes him look like a 70s pornstar

    Lockett is a Titan

    Yup. Just because the Hawks didnt wsnt him doesnt mean he shoukd stop playing. And just because he wants to keep playing, doesnt mean he should play the league minimum. And i think the dude can be productive in a system that knows how to use him. Grubb was an idiot, completely content to allow...

    Potential Sam Howell trade?

    JS's wet dream is for Lock to be the qbotf in Seattle. He wanted that (hoped it coukd be the case) when he got him and i am sure he wants it now. If Darnold stumbles, he cant have Howell in the wings waiting to replace him. Have you heard how he talks about Drew? I mean talk about a woody...

    ESPN article on LJ Collier's breakout year

    Our 1st round draft pick had .5 sacks and 12 tackles. So, there's that.

    ESPN article on LJ Collier's breakout year

    Agree 100% I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt, but yeah, he certainly had dropped players (whether right or wrong) into a scenario where the coach wants something else.

    ESPN article on LJ Collier's breakout year

    Yup. There were quite a few, including Jamal Adams. Regardless of how things played out during his time here, the dude was known for being who HE was. John wanted to use him like a swiss army knife. Pete insisted he play one spot the way HE wanted him to. John won in getting him here, then lost...

    ESPN article on LJ Collier's breakout year

    Problem with the Pete era Hawks (and dont know how much of this was John or disconnect between John and Pete) but there were quite a few players who were brought in with one skillset and then made to play another position or technique. And the more you look back and see the occasional friction...

    ESPN article on LJ Collier's breakout year

    It can absolutely happen that a person isn't a great fit for one organization, underachieves, is fired, then lands somewhere else where he connects better and flourishes under better leadership. Happens all the time. And outside of that, its not like we presented him with a great group of...

    Drew Lock Returns

    But John loves him, with a capital B.

    Raiders and Geno reach an agreement

    If that line was horrible, then wtf was ours? And if ours was orders of magnitude worse than theirs, why all the hemming ang hawing about Geno's performance. But here, dont argue with me: https://www.vikings.com/news/offensive-line-position-recap-2024...

    Drew Lock Returns

    I think 'they' is just Schneider. I dont see how this moves makes any sense, but for the fact that JS is hell bent on seeing Lock turn into the QB he somehow thinks he can be. I dont get the logic. You give up draft capital to get Howell, and then you go and re-sign Lock? John, John, John...
