  1. I didn't read all responses but Sam Howell checks all the boxes for what Quinn mentioned. Tough, hangs in the pocket, make all the throws, has a bit of mobility, didn't have a run game, etc
  2. I dont know if anyone has mentioned it but doesnt Rivera have to at least appear to try and get work this year in order to recieve the last year of his deal? Man would be crazy to coach against next year after all the health issues he's been through. Time to hang em up
  3. I find it unlikely that Johnson will want to risk flaming out in his first chance at being a HC being sabotaged by a meddling owner and DC/Northern Virginia is a short drive to NC if that's where he wants to spend his free time.
  4. Maybe it's just really loud in the stadium so it takes him a second longer to process what was said?
  5. Lol. This doesn't look good on coaching staff, either. They have been preaching Sam as the reason for patience, Brisket comes in and smokes the Rams.
  6. Yeah, it seems like Bowers is rated higher than every skill position player, except for Marvin Harrison Jr., according to most. I can't wait to see what we do. I have some confidence that we'll make the right choice more consistently with the new regime, but it feels critical that we get it right this year, specifically.
  7. That's fair. I haven't seen either of them play much. My hope is an OL grades out as worthy of the pick but a big possession receiver to pair with Sam is enticing. I would think Bowers would be the pick (if available) in that scenario, though.
  8. Would Malik Nabers be in consideration at our pick given everyone thinks Harrison should be gone?
  9. Does the winner of the SF vs Seattle game have any implications for our pick?
  10. Thanks. He's been generating some pressure since I turned it on. Good for him, I guess.
  11. Haven't been able to watch until now. Has Chase done anything for SF?
  12. I read a rumor the the Raiders may also be looking to add an Edge after releasing Chandler Jones earlier this year. No idea how reputable this site is. https://www.profootballrumors.com/2023/10/raiders-eyeing-edge-rush-addition#google_vignette Having moved on from Chandler Jones, the Raiders are without a projected starter amongst their edge rush contingent. The team is eyeing a replacement for at least the remainder of the season. Jones was inactive throughout the beginning of the campaign as his off-field situation spiraled quickly. After the four-time Pro Bowler was arrested, though, Vegas made the expected move of releasing him. The Raiders still have Maxx Crosby in place as their pass-rushing anchor, but a new veteran presence would be welcomed. The team is eyeing a trade acquisition in that regard, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports Russini adds that Vegas has been active contacting teams for a potential addition, and that a player-for-player swap would be preferred. That comes as little surprise, as the 1-3 outfit would be well-suited to retain as much of its draft capital as possible. The Raiders might not be prepared to pay a signficant price in a rental move, Russini notes. Crosby has posted a team-leading four sacks this year, but no other Raider has recorded more than one, and no other edge rusher has any. Collectively, Vegas’ total of seven ranks just 26th in the league, proving the need for reinforcements along the edge. Given the fact any move would likely involve a player on an expiring deal being acquired, a relatively small addition would likely be involved. A starting-caliber arrival would, on the other hand, allow first-round rookie Tyree Wilson to continue operating in a rotational role. The No. 7 pick in April’s draft was originally ticketed for a part-time workload behind Crosby and Jones, but the latter’s departure altered those plans. Wilson has logged a 41% snap share through four games, and he has yet to register a sack or QB pressure. Providing a veteran insurance policy would be a welcomed move for his development, but it will be interesting to see how interested teams are with respect to moving on from a depth member of their own edge rush group. The Raiders currently have just under $11MM in cap space, which puts them in better financial shape than most teams around the league. While their record would suggest a seller’s status, their interest in making at least one addition before the October 31 trade deadline will be an interesting story to follow.
  13. Personally, I don't feel that Sweat is nearly the talent that Chase is. I'd move Sweat to someone like the Raiders (who have 9 picks in the upcoming draft and have expressed interest in adding an edge rusher), tag Chase and try to work out a longer-term deal.
  14. I still see his Instagram up. Comments seem to be just Philly fans who are giving him a hard time.
  15. Makes sense. He definitely seems a little hobbled still and I'm sure it's bothering him more than he's letting on.
  16. Is the receivers not getting separation, specifically in regards to Terry, potentially related to a lingering issue with his injured toe? To me, at least in the first two games, it seemed that there was just something off about the way he was walking after plays.
  17. It'll be fitting if Ron gets sacked for ignoring the OL....
  18. He came off extremely likeable, humble, and mature on his appearance on the players club. Can't wait to see this guy play all season.
  19. If anyone has the time or inclination, I recommend McConaugheys book Greenlights. He's smart, articulate and has led an interesting life. He narrates it himself on audible and it is fantastic (I listened to it driving back West a few weeks ago). I would welcome him being included in the ownership group.
  20. He's just a kid. He's 23 years old in his 3rd game back from a massive knee injury. You don't work on pass rush moves while rehabbing from an injury like that. He has all off-season to get better at that. He WAS working with Von Miller some this past off-season, and I have no doubt he will seek out more guidance this year. He still has so much time to grow, mentally and physically, and he apparently has the work ethic in spades. Its very premature, in my opinion, to be talking about him this way.
