@NFLosophy It was so insanely clear even at the time that Coens offense carried the squad the whole year.

Obviously it was a projection, but it was also OBVIOUSLY a risk worth taking. Zero downside to moving on from a mediocre HC for a possible next McVay 🤷‍♂️

@Corner3_JC @Fulkr75 @StevenCheah You're welcome to believe what you want, but both watching it on all 22 and all of the charting services disagree with you.

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@Fulkr75 @StevenCheah To be fair it did play well, Baker is just a goon and held the ball forever.

You're completely correct about Gesicki. A Todd Bowles masterclass

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@LedyardNFLDraft Wasn't very good and fumbled 3 times... and he just got paid 110 million. Really hate to see it

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@CrazySicilian07 @FTFonFS1 @kevinwildes I love the show, but a big downside was the Chiefs homer aspect.

I get why because it added some running narrative and was fun at times. I don't think the show functions well with there being 3 homers and every bit and topic is just them glazing their respective team sadly

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@ProFootballTalk I'm no expert but I believe, generally speaking, people buy things that they want

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@BarryOnHere You can do whatever you want, but it's boring and I scroll past it

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@PFF Hard to say, they all give you a really good shot at the number 1 pick.

Only thing Browns fans should be worried about

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@SadCLTSportsFan @SharpFootball Especially considering injuries, Bucs have a better QB, DL, OL, S and RB rooms. CB is a question mark for both and TE is probably a wash. Panthers have WR as long as they stay fully healthy and LB is slightly better. Overall it's not close at this point imo. Coach is better

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@SharpFootball Offensively it's close, but Atlanta defense without Jalon and Pearce are gonna struggle

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@SharpFootball Bucs have the best roster by a country mile.

Bowles is easily the worst coach though, so we'll see.

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@PFF Gotta be careful stat watching. Got absolutely burned off the line twice and horrible throws saved him.

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@SharpFBAnalysis Is it?

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@LedyardNFLDraft It's more they don't get talked about. Absolutely no one close to a team will poor cold water on the young guys.

Bad for access, and people don't want to read it.

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@gregauman Hope he's right!

Probably means Bowles is out and I'm feeling good for 2027!

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@gregauman They also probably overpaid for the guard tbh

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@gregauman I love your reporting Greg, but this is incorrect.

It will be extremely easy for them to move the cap around and because of they way they've structured deals recently in terms of cash spending, it would be more of if they want to add more than if they can.

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@VondyP @TBFan613 @LedyardNFLDraft Good, rather pay 10 more a year after a good season 🙏

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@VondyP @TBFan613 @LedyardNFLDraft He played at a really high level 1 year with Liam Coen. Year 1 and 3 he had a like 15th-20th best QB type season.

I think not paying him the same as a Lamar Jackson, or within a couple million of Josh Allen is good business (unless he shows another top 10 QB season)

[Ian @PatMahomer]

@TBFan613 @LedyardNFLDraft Except that they have the franchise tag. The "worst" that could happen next year is he has an MVP level season, he gets tagged and no deal done.

If he doesn't play well or gets hurt they saved themselves 100+ million guaranteed
