    Very true Booch.  Unfortunately the one area no team can really boast about depth is at QB.  What would have happened if Zach had gone down in week 4 for an extended period of time?  Would we still have kept rolling?  I don't know.  I just hope that the Mafia look at ways for us to get better depth at that position in the off season.

    Glad we didn't have to find out..that being said..would have gave McGuire ample time to get his feet under him..

  2. Watching the o.t 2 point convert...A key thing overlooked was a psych job by Woli and Zack...watch for them having a one on one "discussion" prior to snap...and then when play runs..watch Woli release and suck 3 guys to him..main one Bailey's cover guy leaving him wide open for the 2 point grab...u can even see Adeleke wondering wtf and why was that guy wide open....sneaky buggers lol

  3. Not sure why league can't work a partial guarantee into contracts...reduce the signing bonus in lieu of more salary..and if u dump a guy prior to contract completion...player gets a percentage of his signed deal... Kind of inline with what the signing bonus would/ could have been if done the old way.

    I am sure that players would agree to smaller signing bonus if it allowed for a bigger actually salary...with the agreement that If they cut/releaed prior to contract expiration they will recieve a singing bonus type compensation.

    Would make teams less Apt to sign rental type one yr fix type guys...allow for true team building and consistency...and also if I guy is dumped likely be more able to catch on somewhere else without throwing that teams sms into the crapper cause that player could conceivably sign for less as he doesn't have to make up for what he may have budgeted making that yr as he was let go with compensation

    With this as well I'm talking in a player's second deal...not rookie entry deals as technically u don't want to hamstring a team with compensation for new players who don't pan out...veterans...

  4. Yeah that injury moan and groan doesnt cut it, and prob benefitted them by allowing them to find better talent...Bishop..Prob would have done less than the 2 new guys....Vaughn at tackle...was prob a downgrade that replaced him, but the dude wasn't no hel in 2019 and the line sucked then...so this yr woulda sucked a bit less...same with Labatte bailing. He is/was not the same player as 4 yrs ago, so really...he was just a walking bandaid of his former self, and no longer a force out there...Dean..aging linebacker coming from a yr off...who knows what he may have offered them, but thats all on O'day

    We lots our SAM in tc...a guy who prob woulda been an all-star, so Walters promptly went out and brought in someone....an All-star and solid solid replacement.....their other injuries...the fact that they really dont stand out in my mind tells you they were insignificant

    Yet we started the season missing an all-star kicker, 2 all-star DB's...Our starting Will linebacker, lost our starting D-tackle in first game, were missing our starting All start "Canadian" tailback, but we filled those spots more than adequately....hello depth...and had to deal with loss of Adams...Demski...Harris again...Yoshi...all for extended periods....and just kept rolling around....so to say we were "lucky" is laughable....again....it's called depth...teams with it...win championships

  5. all things considered...next year coming into season three he deserves a chnace to win QB 2....judging him on the MTL game is pointless...not a true indicator....all things previous to that indicated otherwise, and of all the QB's in 2019 and 2021..he has the most complete compliment of skillset...it's not an excuse for him, or being blind...just facts...that game was a bad situ in several factors

  6. Yup...online will be key...I expect all back to be honest...and I can see big Stan getting right around what he got this yr...he won't hold team over barrel and he will play here...or he won't play

    I see the same with Neuf...he is loyal and all about team...give him fair value..which we were already and he's back...same with yoshi...these guys are at their top level now basically...and they know they have pretty much 25k minimum sitting here waiting as playoff cash...

    Desjarlais is one up for big bump and he will get it... Walters won't let him walk and I assume same with couture...and he is in contract 3 now too..so his bump isn't unmanageable

    It may come down to one of Gray or Eli as worst case...I can live with that...

    I can't see Harris holding us over barrel either and u would think if Darvin is back he will be at same or less..and Lawler and Bailey will be upgraded accordingly...also manageable...I know teams were advised to spend below the cap..not all did..not sure if we did...but we made it work..so confident we will again...possible cost cutting may be to veteran Canadian backups...Briggs..Gauthier..and guys like Josh Johnson and Antigua

     

  7. for some reason I dont see FJ taking that kind of shave, as he believes his own hype...I hope he stays at what he's owed..they dump too much on Williams...who isnt gonna make them a difference maker, as FAJ isnt the guy to take advantage of him, plus he doesn't seem like what he was, and will have zip for support around him, so can be nuetralized easily.....oh yeah...and they still have no oline, and a shitty coordinator

  8. If we were to lose ZC to either retirement/free agency...which I highly doubt in both regards, I would hope we be all over Reilly...I'm sure we will have our oline intact...with depth again, and him being able to sit in the comfy spot...move around if need be....he'd rip may a team a new arse.....prob put up numbers that make Zack's look pedestrian (No offence to Zack) 

    He would be the perfect stop gap in that case to actually have that back to back to back repeat

    And they want to make Duke the highest paid receiver, sign a legit RB (Ka’deem Carey) and somehow fix that oline…..

    yeah...they gonna have serious issues there retaining guys...which prob isnt best bet there anyway, let alone signing any upgrades if they wanna dump big cash on Duke...gotta figure at least 175..180k minimum...so add that to Faj's 515k thats almost 700k minimum tied into 2 guys who in all honesty...won't put u over the top....and thats not even adressing the 0-line and linebacking corp there..which need major overhaul....yikes!
