    My main concern about any QB for next year is mobility. I think that if we get a statue back there (Bledsoe esque) then we will have to improve the line. one of the reasons that our line has great stats right now is because Tyrod is elusive, and can escape the rush.

    Not all of the problem, but a sizeable portion of the problems in pass protection is that Taylor tends to hold the ball too long. Also not helping is when he starts to move in the pocket the lineman may not know where he is and can't effectively block defenders away. Get a guy that can get the ball out quick and the line is not as bad as people think.

    Do I really need to pull a string of stats and waste my time showing you that Smith is a major upgrade over Tyrod?  Don't strain you fingers searching google.

    Your initial reply is the equivalent of saying Aaron Rodgers is a slight upgrade over Carr or Dalton

    If you base everything on stats alone it truly explains why no one take you seriously. But at least we agree digging up stats would be a waste of time. Have a sweet night!

    I hear that. But if you take the trade as a whole moving down 17 spots in the 1st last draft and getting Tre White and Alex Smith it does seem to be a little easier to stomach.

     

    Either way --> GO TITANS!!!!

    Not really. So basically we get White and a slight upgrade to the QB position for short term and the Chiefs potentially have a long term fix at QB plus whomever they manage to draft with their pick back.

     

    If we are going to move the KC pick then may as well bundle our 1st and slide up the draft....then wait and see if Smith gets released anyway.

     

    All in all, I believe we can hold onto both picks and see how the draft falls.

    Who cares as a fan how much the owner is willing to pay a coach for his services. Are you Davis’ financial planner? Are you going to talk financial planning with Davis? Whats a good return on investment for a HC?

     

    If Davis wanted Gruden, Gruden’s salary has absolutely no impact on the product on the field. Zero. 

     

     

    Oh, I'm sorry. I thought this board was used to share thoughts and opinions. And silly me, being fooled by the topic thought that the contract was part of the discussion. 

     

    And again, you have no clue what I am talking about. Last response you bring up salary cap...now we are down to impact on field. Neither of which was what I was talking about. Next I suppose you will discuss how many hot dogs the vendors sell, or where parking attendants like to grab a beer after the game?

    Who cares how much they pay him. It doesnt count vs the cap. It doesnt impact the roster. This is nothing like the Mario Williams contract.

     

    It instantly injects tons of energy to a franchise with tons of talent. 

     

     

    Not referring anything about the cap. Talking simple economics about returns on an investment. That really is all coaches and players are...investments. Energy is awesome...for about the first 3 games. This world we live in has an attention span about as long as a tweet.

    I don't disagree at all. I was just shocked by your insinuation that even if the raiders win the superbowl it will not have been worth it. Open to interpretation though: "Even if the Raiders win a Super Bowl under Gruden...it's not going to end well."

    Not insinuating anything. Straight up saying it. You pay a coach 100 million dollars you better get some damn good results. 1 Super Bowl...not even close to a good return on the investment.  Especially if he leaves the Raiders in the same situation the Bucs have been in for the last decade.

    What's this about??? It will be worth it if they win a Super Bowl for sure.

    What it's about is that Gruden took a team that was assembled by Tony Dungy, won a Super Bowl and over time left the Bucs in a tailspin that they haven't dug out of yet.  Gruden is the most overhyped, over touted and soon to be over paid coach in the history of the NFL.

    He looks like a failed attempt at a Jim Henson 'Muppet'...

    It's worth every penny just to finally have Gruden out of the TV booth. He never met a player who he didn't love, wasn't one of the best in the game, or wasn't "an outstanding young man." Adios, 'Chucky'.

    Wait, can we sign Davis to anchor our run defense?

    Said he talk to someone on the Bills staff that saw Shady’s workout today and said “ if he has a sprained ankle he should go sprain the other one because he looked terrific today at practice. Said he’s close to 100%.. they went on to say now they know why they call him Shady. Pat said this is really good news for Buffalo fans. I concur ?

    Obviously a smokescreen. DD already ruled him out. ???

    Beth Mowins. Nothing against her but she did MAC Football for so long I feel like I’m watching Central Michigan vs Miami of Ohio at noon on a Saturday on ESPN2 when she’s on.

    That's right. Her name slipped me. Her voice is just...no. I don't even know if she was on point with what she was saying. Couldn't focus on the words. 

     

    Maybe they can just hire one of the awesome commentators from ESPN the Ocho.

    I really would prefer Brady exit the game on a low note with a few consecutive thrashings from an up and coming Bills team

    Doesn't have to be a few for me. Just one next weekend.
