He wasn't very good either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants to return, he will be able to find a doctor who will clear him. If he wants to medically retire due to injury, he will definitely be able to find a doctor who will say he needs to retire.

Also, if the Dolphins were inclined to exercise their right to recover paid but unearned signing bonus money, they could seek $8.4 million for each year remaining on the contract (through 2028), along with $466,667 for each game left in 2024 after he’s cleared. … The Dolphins meanwhile face the prospect of paying more than $167 million over the next three years, if Tua isn’t cleared to play. The real dollars also become cap dollars that the Dolphins wouldn’t have for other players. It sets up an awkward dance. In the end, there could be a negotiated compromise, with for example Tua retiring and Miami retaining half of the $167 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted Tuesday at 12:21 AM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 12:21 AM The Bryce Young benching See, I think it was the Panthers who screwed up, not Young. You took a kid who was totally green and put him on a team with NO weapons and a terrible line. How is he going to succeed This rush to put rookies in at QB right away is foolish. They usually get drafted by awful teams. Look how good Sam Darnold looks with an actual decent team around him. I don't think Zack Wilson was that bad either, but they threw him to the wolves. C.J. Stroud is the exception for rookie QBs, but Stroud had a good team around him. I think Caleb Williams has an okay team around him, but he shouldn't be starting right away. I think the Panthers broke this kid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carolina not only didn't do that but they gutted their roster the season before drafting him and THEN traded a ton of capital for the rights to him. Just complete negligence. Yeah if you build up your team first you probably will have a good enough team where you won't be picking 1st or maybe even in the top 3 but if you have a good supporting cast but are playing a terrible veteran QB chances are you are still going to be losing a ton and still be in position to draft in the top 5-10 where you can still get a premium QB prospect to put with your good cast.

Yeah, this has all the potential to be a "decade of despair" sort of thing. Whiffing on a high 1st round pick can really hurt your team for a while. But whiffing on a high 1st round pick that you paid heavy future assets to acquire can REALLY damage your production for a long time. At least they should have a high pick for the 2025 draft.

If I'm bored sometime maybe I'll actually listen to the podcast, but unlikely. Anyway, the Lions offensive line: Decker: Drafted by Quinn in '16. At best Patricia can claim to having coached him for 2.5 years. (18, 19, part of 20) Glasgow: Drafted by Quinn in '16. Patricia allowed him to walk away after coaching him for two years. Ragnow: Drafted by Quinn in '18. At best Patricia can claim to having coached him for 2.5 years. (18, 19, part of 20) Zeitler: Obviously no Patricia connection here, but let's sub in Jackson from last year: Jackson: Drafted by Quinn in '20. At best Patricia can claim to having coached him for half a season. Sewell: Obviously no Patricia connection here. OL Coach: Hank Fraley - join the Lions as an assistant OL coach in 18, promoted to head OL coach in '20. So if we look at the 2023 Lions OL: Patricia, who was supposed to be a defensive guru, can claim to be the head coach for four of those guys. Two of them for 2.5 season, one he left walk away and didn't try to resign, and the four he was head coach of for .5 seasons. He was also the head coach when our current OL coach was hired. To me that's a pretty massive stretch to say that Patricia helped build the OL. I don't recall ever hearing even something remotely like Patricia being directly involved in coaching, assisting, mentoring the OL at all. In fact much of the OL probably underperformed when he was HC. And the super duper dumb thing here is that if Belicheck names a different underling of his, it actually makes sense! If He's said: Quinn was involved in helping build the OL... he'd have been right! Quinn was the one who drafted 4 of the '23 OL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
