📬 AlbertBreer’s mailbag: Why the next six weeks are so important for Deshaun Watson and the Browns
There’s a parallel here that I think can help illustrate the challenge ahead for Watson on the field. After the 2000 college season, then Yankees owner George Steinbrenner backed up the Brinks truck to pry prized prospect Drew Henson from his football pursuits. To that point, Henson had juggled being a Michigan quarterback and a minor-league third baseman.
The question really will be whether these teams are willing to pay up. Payton walked away from a five-year deal that was worth, all told, $80 million in New Orleans. He said no to. So I really don’t think he’s going to go somewhere just because he likes the scenery and a bunch of the players. Whoever gets him is going to have to pony up to do it.
There’s also an interesting way to illustrate it, and that’s to explain how McDaniel’s unique role in San Francisco worked. Shanahan would entrust the run-game plan to McDaniel each week to the point where he’d let McDaniel disappear into his office on Monday and Tuesday to work over whatever the 49ers would do that week on the ground. He’d often come out with something that’d confound others in the building, but would make sense to everyone by the end of the week.
This, to be sure, was never a one-year rebuild. That said, signs of progress are important as Caserio looks to his third year in charge, when his job could well be on the line. Does he want to tie a season with those sorts of stakes to Lovie? We’ll see.Joey, presuming they have the first pick, and they hold a game-and-a-half “lead” in that race, I’m not sure there’s going to be one worth taking there. The best one, in my opinion, and the opinion of a lot of evaluators, is Alabama’s Bryce Young.
All of it’s complicated, and even more so with the prospect of Caleb Williams and Drake Maye continuing their ascents and entering the 2024 draft.Why were you so salty about Michigan fans celebrating on Saturday as if you don’t try to rub everything in michigan fans face every chance you get? David, I’m with you on the run game. It hasn’t gotten enough attention, but Ron Rivera’s built the kind of physically imposing offense he had in Carolina, with a two-back rotation and a very real edge., here are their rushing totals over the last seven games: 128, 166, 96, 137, 152, 153, 176. It’s good for a lot of people to get there, from Brian Robinson and Antonio Gibson to the line to coordinator Scott Turner.
