I have read that Noll thought they could get a few more years out of Bradshaw and that was part of why they passed on Marino. They also wanted to...
I guess he decided he wants the extra attention of the farewell tour, but I wouldn't put it past him to change his mind after the season is over.
If they really like Howard as much as I've seen in some reports, that is the only choice that makes sense. Allar is going to make the team. The...
Duel purpose? [IMG]
You are leaving out part of the choice there. The choice is either lose a young quarterback with more upside, Howard or Allar, to keep Rudolph...
Going into the 1974 draft, the Steelers believed John Stallworth was going to be great. Supposedly, Chuck Noll wanted to take him in the first...
That is how you get a potential franchise quarterback in the third round. You a quarterback with great physical tools in the hopes that your...
Yes, they are. Teams do it all the time, whether it be because they don't think the guy is ready or because they have a quality starter ahead of...
This makes no sense at all. Allar is not making it through waivers to get to the practice squad. Teams may have passed on spending a pick in the...
Rodgers was 35 then, not 42. McCarthy had worn out his welcome with the playoff failures in Green Bay by then. This is a completely different...
No Heidenreich? I'd much rather see him converted to receiver than keep a practice-squad scrub like Perry.
You don't think teams consider protecting the quarterback's blind side in their protection schemes. Man, you're cracking me up.
You still have to cut the guy to get him to the practice squad. The Steelers aren't doing this with Allar. They might try it with Howard, but no...
It's even funnier when you misread the post you mock as you just did. You thought I was talking about what opposing defenses do. I wrote about...
It's as if some folks forgot what they did in free agency. No, they didn't do as much as they should have in the draft to help the defense, but...
You don't think teams adjust at all to which side is their quarterback's blind side. That's funny. I don't think it is as much of an adjustment...
I believe the last time they traded down in the first round was moving from 16 to 19 in 2001, when they took Casey Hampton. They also traded down...
Protecting a quarterback's blind side is not irrelevant.
We will see what they lose replacing Harbaugh with an inexperienced head coach. Also, losing Linderbaum in the middle of that offensive line...
No, 10-9 is not a tie game. Just because reality doesn't fit what you want it to be doesn't mean you get to make up your own. Rudolph got to play...
