...probably the first priority 'Happy......if we want Allen to be the long term, QB answer, can't have him putting the team on his shoulders weekly...kid will exit the game on a gurney...hope he works on the "touch" throughout camp as in tempering the howitzer when needed.....I think he can do it.....Jordan Palmer is one helluva teacher and Dorsey is a good coaching staff addition IMO....
-
...realistically though, after Waste Management hauled away McBeane's cap cleanup dregs, he only had so much money, bubble gum and band aids left to make a significant impact on the WR corp....but IMO, it certainly looks like we could have some formidable camp competition at WR which hopefully is a substantial upgrade for Josh...

Posible Disasters, off season & future
OldTimeAFLGuy replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
if we made the playoffs on our own (no "Divine Dalton Intervention"), it would be a crushing blow to some of our very own "TBD Negative Nellies" and their daily diatribes....hell, they make the NEGATIVE terminal on my car battery look POSITIVE....SMH.... -
..plenty of guys were advertised as 6' or a tad more (faulty tape??) but had (or are having) productive careers as in Tark, Jurgenson, Russell Wilson, Brees, etc......or consider the flip side....the Seahawks drafted 6'8" Dan McGuire (Mark's brother) #16 in 1991 as the end all-cure all to seeing over the OL.....how did that work out?.....guy is now a cell tower for Verizon....

...could be as long as the OJ Saga....YAWN............ -
..exactly bud...let's be realistic about seventeen+ years of "F Troop" running the show.....Sgt O'Rourke and the "woeful gang of misfits" gave new meaning to "bubble gum and band aids".....Jesus, a painful chapter in OBD lore....but I certainly feel confident that McBeane, McDermott and company FINALLY have us on the right track....stay tuned.....

Why are the Browns the sexy pick?
OldTimeAFLGuy replied to The Red King's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
..no disrespect, but let them have the limelight as the formidable "new kid on the block" while we quietly go about business "under the radar".....kinda like a "Stormin' Norman Schwarzkopf" sneak attack myself.... -
...and I agree....just trying to set a reasonable bar with all of the changes, which of course are untested "on paper".....sure as hell beats seventeen years of ..."this is THE year...we're goin'....playoffs baby...the schneid is over....13-3, 12-4, 11-5, 10-6, "etc only to be jilted at the altar EVERY year......
-
...I'd take a solid 2nd in the AFCE and a clear cut wildcard as the first step....just my opinion, but that would be a helluva accomplishment with the multitude of changes in personnel as well as coaches heading into 2019.....I do worry about three particular posters here who would be crushed if this happened.....
-
....what attributes other than his obvious size and advertised arm strength lead you to believe he'd be a good addition to PS as a QB prospect?.....from what I'm reading, he makes "steak tartare" look "well done" and developing him probably takes more time than it did to build Rome...is it worth it?.....
-
...good call IM...."steady as she goes Admiral Nelson".......and I think McBeane, McDermott, McDaboll & company have us on the right track, FAR MORE SO than 17 years of "F Troop"....at the same time, heed Greenspan "irrational exuberance" speak.....STILL stinging rebuke for me is Moo's 2004 club needing to beat the 3rd string Steelers....."win and we're in" ending the schneid......you know the rest.............

OldTimeAFLGuy replied to The Red King's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
...I would throw in "potentially" for good measure only because a rookie HC is in charge of keeping all of the talented egos on the same page for 16 games......
