    Honest Question on Russ draft...

    There are two different elements to picking the the draft (real or imaginary). Predicting the impact the player will have in the drafting team and predicting where a player will go in the draft. I think the NFL teams are significantly better than the media at the later although I think there...

    Honest Question on Russ draft...

    All this goes to show how little anyone outside NFL teams actually know about draft prospects. The media hated the Russ pick, either becasue he was a completely wasted pick or we could have picked him up in a later round if we really wanted him. The later was disproved when the Eagles said they...

    Are you boycotting the super bowl?

    I wont watch (at least not the majority of the game live) but it isn't that unsual for me. With a start time of 11:30pm to watch the whole thing I would need to take the Monday off work and I only do that for a super bowl I am particularly interested in I think the last time I did that was 2020...

    McCarthy?

    Has he learnt his lesson about hiring guys with little to no experience? The Grubb appointment did not go well. Of the people being talked about as being in the running Kubiak, Brown and Leftwich all have NFL OC experience I wouldn't be surprised of one of them got the job.

    Bills v Commanders (Hopefully)

    Would love it to happen I just hope the Zebras don't do all the can to make it a Chiefs v Eagles super bowl.

    Should Geno join Pete in Vegas?

    Accordng to those ratings Geno is the 3rd highest rated player on our team (after Williams and Walker) and the 9th best QB in the league. Surely we need 2 first rounders plus change to consider any trade. Pete will know exactly how much the front office value Geno and I don't think they will...

    Stroud on the Zebras

    Any chance someone could persuade Taylor Swift to ditch Kelcie for Geno? Then whenever Geno throws a pick it would be flagged for roughing the passer or pass interferance.

    POLL: NET Temp

    Its too early to tell, if we dump Geno and use all our draft picks (so no improvements to the O-line) to get the next Trey Lance we might be looking at about 6 wins. Get the next Tom Brady in the 6th along with some good picks and trades to improve in the trenches then we could go all the way...

    Can there be at least one good playoff game?

    We won 10 games and that was bad enough to sack the OC and for .NET to moan about how awful the team is / Geno must go ..... The Vikings / Rams game could be a good game. The Rams have been pretty good since getting players back from injury. If it was in LA I might even have made them...

    Watson ruptures achillies, may miss all of 2025 season

    The idea of the salary cap is to prevent the richest teams winning every season and those with less money not having a chance. This means success depends on making the right decisions. It's not perfect the richest owners take advantage of cap inflation to pay players using the next 2-3 years of...

    Biggest offseason in history?

    These were big in hindsight. If a "big" offseason is defined as one where you score a home run on multiple draft picks and FAs there is no way of telling if 2025 will be a big one. We may draft the next Tom Brady in the 6th round but I wouldn't predict it. If we make some good choices and some...

    Hard Knocks?

    I was just looking at that: Panthers: My prediciotn, Bryce Young's Roller Coaster NFL career will be something to make a story of and Canaleas is very charismatic Titans: 1st overall pick, is a big interest but as they has that story last year they might not want a repeat Falcons: Featured in...

    MacDonald riding with Geno

    He is cheap, keeping Howell will cost $1.1m. I think it unlikely (not impossible) that Howell becomes a decent starting QB so would like us to persue other options, draft a QB (probably on day 2 maybe day 3) and have him compete with Sam for the back up role, (and who knows even the starter if...

    MacDonald riding with Geno

    Probably true but there is a lot of time between now and the start of next season. If we get a QB in the lower rounds of the draft who out plays Geno pre season then we we should start him. It is unlikely but it happened in 2012.

    MNF Playoffs?

    He who pays the piper (the Networks) call the tune but it does go against the plans to expand interest into Europe. An Early Sunday game would be 6pm kick off for me which is perfect, instead I sleep though a game which starts at 1am Tuesday morning.

    QB next year

    We have also been over 500 is all 3 seasons under Geno, a lot of teams would love to have that.

    QB next year

    Yes Ints have been a problem for Geno this year but among starting QBs he was 5th for completion percentage and 6th for total yards. Even with all the interceptions his passer rating puts him at 19th. Who are the alternatives? Darnold the majority of Execs believe he will be kept by the...

    Fair Catch Kicks

    The argument is at the time of the foul the Bronco's were the offensive team though I am not sure how the rules define defence and offence in such situations. It certainly makes sense if the team committing the penalty will be defence on the next play there should be an untimes play but I do not...

    Fair Catch Kicks

    With the Chargers getting the first Fair catch free kick since the Seahawk inaugeral season it got me wondering whether kickers actually practise such kicks of just rely on if they take one their their practice of Kick-offs and field goals will see them through. Was Dicker even aware of the...

    QB for 2025 season

    Hindsight is a wonderful thing, our main chance to get him was the summer RW3 left and Geno was far better at that point. I'd rather have Mayfield than Geno now but the Geno of 2022 was better. Was it a mistake not to draft Purdy in the 7th Round that year?
