  1. Im talking about having confidence in Sira starting and it somehow ended with 9/11 , court of law and god knows what. i am officially throwing in the towel with this thread.
  2. congratulations ?
  3. Judging by the welcome Sira thread im not the only person who has confidence in the fella. I also have him start as a guard which is the position he played, have not endorsed him playing another position at all so i have no fking idea where you get this BS from and what it has to do with what i said. You are the one reaching by using what other people say against me. Also you do know Lewis was a 4th round pick right? Drafted as an OT who played G and will probably play OT this season. Did a pretty good job last season. Wagner was good when he got the start as a 5th round rookie at RT and never looked back. I dont expect flacco to do good either if we have injuries on the o-line which i already have said numerous times now. So im giving him the exact same treatment i gave Pees. That i would say i pretty objective. Also like i said i was praying from Young to start over wright sooner then later. So its pretty much inline with having Sira start as well , just Lewis did and proved it could work out. Actually as i said the numbers i gave was just an example. If you really want to go indepth then you should get to work. if you want me to be specific cause you dont grasp the concept of what an example is then say so. lets just say that the avg time to throw for a QB was 2.63 seconds. then there is also a difference between being blitzed and regular pass rush. also players with good footwork like a rodgers or wilson can move and step up which impact the amount of pressure they face compared to statues like palmer for instance. then you also have to consider that some QBs have a ridiculous fast release. someone like brady gets the ball out well below that 2.63 mark which is why he is not getting pressured much, but that does not mean his o-line where all all pro. Heck you also have to consider the dropback and if its a 3 step , 5 step or 7 step dropback , and if its from under center , pistol or shotgun. no dude you work has just begone if you want to understand the concept about what i consider as a pressure. Dont really feel like going indepth because boards are closing tommorow anyways but if you wanna keep going with this nonesense then by all means say so. I am not the only person who believes Sira can start so i have no idea what makes you think that this is something radical or whatever.
  4. billion dollar company cant afford official team forum. guess we finally have some money to get that high priced receiver in FA. seriously wonder who where those geniuses who made this decision. usually companies cherish/reward those who are loyal , rather then tell them to piss off and find somewhere else cause they aint worth the cost.
  5. ill take your word as the residential o-line guru for it lol
  6. true my bad. does not change much though. they can tag and trade him next season or work on a new deal . his health will pretty much decide what they will do and what his price will be.
  7. good thing there are not the only one rushing the passer on any given play? not sure how credible profootballfocus is but according to them kessler when he played was pressured almost 50 % of the time. https://www.profootballfocus.com/pro-top-five-nfl-qbs-under-pressure/ it was also just an example though.
  8. i compared the 3 season you mentioned to last season which you mentioned as well. Croyell is more based on power running. West Coast is more based on zone blocking. Hope this awnser your question and if not just use whatever reason you had to bring up zorn back ground cause it should matter even less what back ground a QB coach has. Castillo experience with zone blocking and the west coast offense is far superior then that of moeller. Makes sense i guess that he was brought in to replace Moeller in 2013 since the team planned to go that route. Castillo was actually installing this during the season and even promised things would improve after the bye. it was highly reported and discussed pretty heavily on the boards during and after the season. not sure why you are pretending like this is new to you.
  9. You can draft a guy in round 1 and he sucks while you draft a guy in round 6 that becomes 1 of the best players in the game. The draft is a lottery. Sira can be a guy who can be as bust like gino , or he can be decend like lewis was last season or become a stud like wagner or heck maybe he is even the next yanda. Only way to find that out is to have confidence in the guy and let him proof you right or wrong. Who says that if we drafted a guy higher that he would be better? Who says if we bring in dunlap or mangold that they have enough left to be an upgrade? Who says if we trade for thomas that he wont injure himself before TC? You cant predict the future so rather then burning these young fellas to the ground before even a freaking week has past , how about you put some confidence in the fella and see how he does in TC. If he is good then no issues. If he sucks and there is no back up plan then shame on the FO. If Flacco gets good protection and his footwork still sucks then i will criticize him. If he is under pressure all the time then i will give him a pass. If the o-line is 2013 bad then he gets a pass. if the o-line is like 2014 i expect him to show proper footwork in the pocket. in others words as an example i will evaluate the protection of the o-line first and then based on that i will look at the footwork of the QB when attempting to make a pass. but on 1 thing i will evaluate the other. at no point have i said that i will look at flacco footwork only and ignore everything else. so drop the zeroing with purpose to criticize BS please let me even be more specific. if flacco drops back to pass 10 times and: he is under pressure lets say half of the time or more , im not going to bash the fella for his footwork. but if he is under pressure only about 3 times or less , i will expect him to show good footwork the times he has no pressure. PS there seems to be quite a few people that have confidence in Sira when reading his welcome thread.
  10. true true hahahah
  11. last year he attempted 118 more passes and completed 92 more passes then he did under kubiak. he attempted 141 more passes and completed 119 more passes then he did in 2012. attempted 183 more passes and completed 130 more passes then he did 2010. so 1.0 yard and 1.7 yard less is a significant downgrade. Also you know what else speaks volumes: Croyell : 5 play off appearences couple of championship games 1 SB title , missed the play offs 1 time Westcoast: 1 play off season , 2 times not making the play offs and the franchise QB landing on IR. I would expected only guys like wisdom and rayray to actively be in favor of the west coast offense quite frankly.... Ow btw you might wanna look up why Marty version of the west coast goes by ``Marty Ball``. Also another thing that speaks volumes. 2013 was the first season we went with a different run game coordinator/o-line coach. His name was Castillo who is from the Any Reid coaching who runs............ the West coast offense. So the first season our run game went to hell is also the first season we had an o-line coach with a west coast back ground. The other 2 seasons where our run game was nowhere to be found was also the same seasons we had the same guy with the same background in charge of the o-line. the only season in between when we had succes running the ball was when we brought in kubiak who came with his own scheme and staff.
  12. we sure butt hell agree on that lol. might mean judgement day is around the corner hahahhaa
  13. bills could always tag watkins if he manages to stay healthy. they could already be discussing an extension at a lesser price instead of waiting till he has a healthy season and his price going up. they could also do what the pats did with butler by tagging him and have him look for a team that is willing to trade for him and sign him to what he is looking for. picking up his option guarantees his contract for next season. tagging only becomes guaranteed when he signs it which should buy both sides more time to figure things out. deadline for signing the tag is somewhere in april i think
  14. to clarify im talking about adjusted yards gained per attempt. even still its freaking absurd lol. think only montana 1989 play off run was better
  15. im wondering how good his footwork is. as a former soccer player he should be pretty nimble moving around.
  16. id wait for cuts to me made. if we go for a trade i want Joe Thomas to play RT if possible
  17. flacco best seasons came when he was pushing the ball downfield. just look at adjusted yards gained per pass attempt and yards gained per completion for every season and compare them to how he did the past 2 seasons in the traditional west coast. ( kubiak runs his own version) i urge you to pay a lot of attention to that 10.8 yards gained per pass attempt in the 2012 play offs. its a highly ridiculous number tbh. there is no way you get that by throwing short passes.
  18. nothing crazy about this at all. Flacco fits the coryell offense more then the west coast and the players we have at the moment fit that offense more. norv turner is teamless i think
  19. pretty much. not sure why people think this is something new. Reed played single high alot after moving to FS for us covering the deep ball even with poor corners.
  20. Id take a pylon/tackling dummy over wright. in regards to the o-line. He might get pressured and he might not get pressured. If he gets pressured because of a bad o-line i already blame ozzie and the coaches like i said. if he does not get pressured and he still has the same shitty footwork throwing off his back foot then i will blame him what of this dont you guys understand? pressure and bad footwork is not his fault. no pressure and bad footwork i will blame him.
  21. Yes i would be fine with starting a 4th round rookie at CB. was actually advocating that just last freaking season.... does the name tavon young ring any bells? wanted him to start over wright and powers. want him to start over carr this season and until humphrey shows he is better. want him then to become the starting nickle corner. Also calling me out? Same people that complain when a defender misses a tackle or when a receiver drops a pass are making excuses when the QB displays bad footwork when he gets good pass protection. catching ,tackling are just as fundamental to their position as is proper footwork for the QB. So who is actually unfair and showing bias when complaining about the former 2 and make excuses for the latter?
  22. not really. he is on a better team with better players so he should be able to be in the position to make more plays. id could see garrett facing double teams a lot more then williams and with their secondary he might not even have enough time to get close to the QB lol
  23. so Thomas could not cover nor rush the passer because he was to heavy?
  24. a bad play? flacco has been throwing off his back foot since he was drafted. with zorn and later kubiak it seemed he got rid off it and worked on his footwork but as soon as they left he was back to doing this crap. not throwing off your back foot is a fundamental for any QB. for the amount of money and cap space he is taking up , it should be a no brainer for him to work on getting the basics of being a QB down. i already said i wont blame him if is he is under pressure within a second of snapping the ball because the o-line sucks but if their is no pressure then as a professional franchise QB he should at least show proper fundamentals when attempting a pass. as for the o-line itself. FO just drafted 2 starters last season with 1 being a stud LT. FO already kept the best and HOF worthy o-liners in baltimore. FO just drafted a G in the 4th round who should be capable of starting. That is 4 out of 5 positions filled already with 2 being manned by 2 of the best at their position. Then their are 3 guys with starting experience on the roster to fill the last spot and there are 2 promising players the coaching staff is high on. There is also a new o-line coach as well who could get more out of these guys. And if we need to their is still FA and later in the year teams will have to make cuts and who knows a guy like sitton comes available again. Its really sad you are already throwing these young guys under the buss and acting like they will be 2013 bad before TC even started. i dont see the skyfalling with the o-line at this moment. if stanley and/or yanda gets injured then it would be time to really panick.
  25. A.Thomas probably a good comp as well for bowser.
