He wouldn't have had to do much of anything except make 3-5 tough throws a game, maybe, with the rest being some sort of RPO/play action stuff, that's why he would've been fine. Aside from that all he'd have to do is hand it off to Barkley for 5-6 YPC and wait for the defense to get a turnover...

Indeed, I just said they had the best RB in the league, best OL in the league, a top 3 WR duo in the league and one of the league's elite defenses last year. Oh, and in Hurts' 6 playoff wins he's averaged 23 passes a game, 167 yards passing and 1 TD a game. He has two playoff wins where he's...

Most people think Aikman was an elite bus driver, so yea, it's not far off, but Aikman was obviously miles better as a passer. Hurts is an average at best passer (probably worse), but they cover it up with their talent/running game, and of course his running ability on top.

Did you bother noticing that Hurts barely ever threw the ball more than 20 times a game in the playoffs last year? That's a massive outlier, Aikman routinely had 30-35 pass attempts a game 30+ years ago.

He wins because he has an elite team around him, last year alone he had arguably the best RB in the league, the clear best OL in the league and a top 3 WR duo in the league. And an elite defense of course. He's the definition of a bus driver who brings added value because he's basically a...

Not really, he barely did anything of note in the playoffs last year.

He's just parroting the company line, knows he has a job for life that way, and I'm guessing that's also why he's never left for an actual GM job. He's also basically the de facto GM when it comes to the draft in my opinion, the other stuff probably either doesn't interest him as much or he...

Every team overexaggerates their own history, even the non-Super Bowl stuff, so whatever. And that team was borderline Super Bowl caliber to begin with. Unlike the 2009, 2016 and 2021-23 teams, that team didn't choke like a fucking dog in the playoffs, although they sure tried against the...

Yep.

Yea I think the simplest explanation is that he's a cheap old man who also likes the negative attention that these protracted contract situations bring.

This is almost certainly wild speculation that means nothing, but I appreciate the balls of a team-affiliated media entity in bringing up a topic like this. I wouldn't be completely shocked if Jerry was one of these ultra-rich types who can't stop rolling the dice, and who shifts around debt to...

I don't think there's any chance Mafah gets cut, they'll keep 4 RB's first (5 if you count Luepke). They'll just go a bit lighter at OL or something.

Schott has made a point to praise him several times.

I think he's ok but I wouldn't take his opinion too seriously, I also think there's a decent chance he's trying to suck up to the team so that they hire him as a mouthpiece like the dumbass Walker guy. Ultimately I trust myself 500X more than anything I hear come out of the mouth of these half...

Yea it just seems relatively unlikely when there's 1-2 per year who go in the first compared to the 5-7 OT's.

Yea, it's a combination of strength, balance and technique, Thomas just looks way more centered.

If Thomas impresses enough I think the easy answer is leave him at LT and move Guyton to RT. But even if Thomas just looks like a good backup, if Steele plays like he has the past few years again I think you have to get rid of him and then prioritize OT in the draft. It's not ideal to go OL in...

Steele getting his ass whipped left and right, as per usual. Can't wait until they get rid of this fucking gump.

This is just another permutation of the ever-present root cause of the dysfunction: this organization's top priority is not winning football games. That's all there is to it.

Maybe, but he was one of the best players on their defense his last year though, Graham was a freshman and Hutchinson was gone. It was a very good college defense of course but it's not like it was littered with high round picks. You had a few guys but he was definitely one of the top guys his...
