It seems like our standards for QB continue to grow to HOF transcending levels while our standards for OL play have dropped down to hoping Mike McGlinchey plays so Colton McKivitz doesn't. And we all know he probably will at some point given our annual trends.

Oh well...welcome to the WZ.

Too bad. We had stellar standards at both when we were winning ships.

You misremember the 94 season then. Or was Steve Young crawling across the Silverdome because he liked the feel of turf on his body?

The record breaking season? It was bad early. I do remember that. And Steve still had a tendency to hold it too long too.

No they do not. Cleveland and Philly are literally the only ones with abundance. Other teams are cutting disappointing young players or vets that got beat out. Don't expect anyone other than depth pieces.

Yeah, that ship sailed a couple months ago to upgrade. It'll all just be depth at this point. Although it can't be too difficult to upgrade over McKivitz. That said they like him because he knows the system. He just sucks at it.

I'd be for getting a guy like Leatherwood and keep him inactive while you work with him.

s**t the KC game the week prior was even worse
I wonder if Joe had a tendency to hold onto the ball too long here and that's why he got wrecked as well
