I agree. I do think TrubINTsky has more potential than Bortles, though. I expected this from the Bears next year, not this year. The Bears could be a legit contender for the title in 3 years, depending on what they do with the rest of the team.

Browns since firing Hue Jackson: 3-2

Bengals since hiring Hue Jackson: 0-4

Also, the Browns only have accrued 4 penalties since Jackson's firing.

Browns can still make the playoffs, and it isn't THAT far-fetched (win out against DEN/CIN/BAL, BAL loses to LAC, PIT loses out to NE/BAL/CIN.)

Not sure how I feel about this. I haven't been impressed by the play calling, but this seems pretty desperate. Also, I'm 100% certain it won't make a lick of difference.

There sure have been a large number of OCs since Zimmer took the HC job.

Their OL graded out measurably higher last year than they have so far this season. You can't fake talent but you can improve schemes, technique and teamwork.

This year's schedule has been murder's row, even including a Bears team that is nothing like what it was last year. Buffalo cannot be explained away, and you have to beat the best to be the best and all that. But it HAS been a tough schedule, and that deserves consideration when comparing this year's performance to last.

I know that Vegas took that into account. You had a team that won what, 13 games in the regular season last year, went to the NFC Championship game, then signed what many considered to be the top free agent QB out there, yet Vegas had them at maybe 10.5 wins for the season, iirc? I think a lot of fans understood that too.

But they have significantly underperformed. I think Keenum was a little more mobile and that masked some problems with pass protection last year.

If I were an NFL general manager, and certainly no one would ever entrust that job to me, every single first round pick I made, and a sizable number of second round picks I made, would be either offensive or defensive linemen. It continues to be a game of controlling the line of scrimmage, and I don't think that will ever change.

Call Dan Snyder. He will be looking for a GM soon.

The Vikings spend their top picks on skill players every year. I agree with you.
