They've never played a regular season snap yet together. The 4 came from 4 different teams. They will be handled a few times in real games before they will get used to each other and gel.

 

This team won't shine from game one. It is disheartening, but it is what it is. We knew this.

Agreed. I just want to see a flash out of someone. Even if it's just a series.

When Luck gets back the offense will stay on the field longer. I hope.

 

We have some nice pieces I think. If Clark goes well at RT and Moncrief and Dorsett stay healthy, our offense can be very good when Luck and Kelly come back and on form. I think Mck is going to bring another dimension too.

Why was Mack not in there getting the screens?

They likely had a two minute offense package in place with the starters and Turbin knows it better. Not that it matters with our execution but Mack will have a limited role until he learns all the offense.

This and he may be on a play count.  He did have one nice pickup on a blitz.  He's looked good thus far.

I watch the rookies and individual players. Wilson looks ok, and Green is interesting experience near the sideline. Mack introduced himself well. I'm waiting to see Basham, Stewart and Hairston to see where they are.

Honestly, what's there to learn? Lol.

 

We look pedestrian.

I thought Morrison and Simon looked pretty good on defense.....the rest of the starters not so much.  Morrison showed improved coverage against Witten then stopped McFadden in a 1 on 1 open field tackle after a dump off pass.  He also had a couple other tackles/assists on running plays.  The CBs looked awful.  The DL was manhandled.

They're not going to give away plays

Honestly it doesn't matter about giving away plays Peyton ran the same plays all the time and people still couldn't defend you can show your hand all you want the defense still HAS to stop it that being said we don't show anything during the season either so this is no excuse haha

    • Fields next season will offer another test sample. 3rd year and the weapons around him though new, are overall significantly improved.  Steichen's offense uses a lot of simple reads that creates excellent run opportunities, that creates gaps in the defense. We need o-lineman that can run and block on the move like Philly's did. A tall order.  Richardson absolutely can run this, and run the ball as well as Newton did or better. And there is no reason he can't learn to throw as well as Newton did or better.  He was born to excel in Steichen's 2022 offense.
    • I think Young and Stroud come off the board at 1 and 2. Young could be the next Drew Brees or he could be the next Murray. Stroud has all the tools, but why would he say that he admires Vick and Watson? Has he been oblivious to everything? As a GM, that would concern the hell out of me.    That leaves Levis, Hooker, and Richardson.    Hooker is the most polished of the 3, and I really like his pocket mobility. There are times when he doesn’t see the rush, but it’s a similar issue I noticed early with Aaron Rodgers, and he can overcame it. Hooker can be very accurate, but he lacks anticipation. Has a strong enough arm, and wheels. While it is not an exact carbon copy, I see a lot of Daniel Jones in Hooker. And he will have the same hurdles in the NFL. But the potential is there.    Levis has a huge upside. Strong arm and mobile enough. He is very cocky though. It might be hard to teach this guy how to leave his ego at the door of the quarterback room. Guys like this tend to have leadership issues. People can overcome this, but they normally don’t. If he can then his upside is similar to Josh Allen.    Richardson is very raw, and he is one of the most inaccurate quarterbacks I’ve ever seen mentioned as a top 5 pick. He is an athletic freak. One rule to always remember is, you are either born with accuracy or you’re not. This is not something people usually improve drastically with. I think he is going to struggle in the NFL, and it’s all going to linked to his ability to put the football in the right place.    If Levis is off the board, then I’m taking BPA or bouncing out of that 4th pick. And there would need to be some very good interviews with Levis, to convince me that he is the guy.    I would most likely either make a path to get Hooker, or arrange a deal for Lamar. And if all else fails, I’d be okay to ride with Minshew in 23. 
    • Tackle?      Raimann is the LT.  Smith is the RT.   I think the only way that changes is if either gets hurt.      The Colts will likely look for a swing tackle.  A solid backup.   But my guess is that will be in free agency. 
    • That would be a negatory big Ben. See no es comprende. Imposseble'  Or something like that.
    • Okay, Okay. Let’s say hypothetically the Ravens KNOW they won’t keep Lamar. Wait and see how the draft falls. If Arizona trades out and Will Anderson is available take him. And then see if we can entice them to give us Lamar for our 2nd and 4th or something and then our 1st and 3rd next year. We get a top flight pass rusher and a former MVP in his prime. *shrug*
