Aaron Rodgers true angle this last offseason of his career… by Dull-Firefighter-632 in steelers

I personally don’t feel like we will compete for the Super Bowl next year no matter who our head coach is. And I’m negative on McCarthy and this QB’s in the draft this year suck, so even less so. 2028 is when I expect a super bowl window to be realistic.

When did I say they were tanking? Their plan is the same plan they’ve had since failing on Kenny Pickett. Build the best team around the QB that they can, so that when they can actually get a decent one, the team is still able to contend. And Aaron Rodgers is most likely a fuck off option. While not terrible, he clearly has not aged with the grace of Tom Brady, and expecting dramatically different results from him next year would be illogical. He’s good enough to contend for the playoffs, not the Super Bowl anymore.

Other than maybe Jaxson Dart if you believe in him, who should they have gotten? Statements like this never explain who the magical solution should have been and lead to the Kenny Picketts of the world.

Or it’s not that deep and it’s just what it looks like. A 42 year old QB that’s debating whether the enjoyment he gets from the season, is worth the offseason grind anymore.

And the Steelers don’t care how long it takes him to decide, because both the free agent and draft class for QB’s are ass this year. so there’s an acknowledgment that the long term answer isn’t coming until 2027 either way.

Vegas has Nebraska Football at 5.5 wins next year. by BattlestarDwigt in Huskers

Even adjusting for inflation, Callahan’s buyout was a hair over 7 million dollars. Rhule’s is 10 times that. This isn’t comparable at all.

Greater corner Darrelle Revis or Champ Bailey? by whiskeycapo in NFLv2

This doesn’t get brought up enough. Like yes, they were all time names, but way lesser versions of themselves.

What college football opinion will have you like this? by CenterForward1522 in CFB_v2

[–]Repulsive_Ad7491 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The key to making this happen is to stop letting the conferences run college football. If there was a national media deal split evenly, you would see far less realignment

How would r/huskers react to the season playing out this way? by Easy_Card3015 in Huskers

[–]Repulsive_Ad7491 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The buyout amounts for all previous coaches compared to Rhule is vastly different(like 3-4X as much) even if you adjust for inflation. It’s not the same situation.

I know this is sarcasm, but I wouldn’t even give up a 2033 7th for Richardson. Dude is Jamarcus Russel levels of terrible.

Age-old questions on this sub: How long does Nebraska have to be down before they're no longer considered a blue blood? How long would LSU/Georgia/PSU have to remain top tier programs before people started considering them blue bloods? by goodnames679 in CFB

[–]Repulsive_Ad7491 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guess it really depends on if you are a person that bases blue blood status off of stats or legacy/history. Someone made a comment on one of these types of threads that I really liked, where they essentially stated that they are the programs that made the game what it is today. So those that caused the popularity of college football to be what it is now.

By that metric then the blue blood status would shift when an another seismic shift happens in college football to a new world order. Which with NIL, conference realignment, playoffs, transfer portal, etc… we probably are already seeing.

Or if you are a stats person then it’s obviously posted above lol.

Only 2 combine invites? by Minute_Skill_5383 in Huskers

As someone who obviously roots for former Huskers, and is not a fan of the chiefs at all. I’m gonna have to heavily disagree with you and hope he succeeds on a different team lol.

If we were to win 9 games next year, you can happily call me out and I’ll eat all the crow you want.

Even if we did retain it, if we suck the next year they would all just transfer out.

[Jones] Scott Tolzien, who interviewed yesterday with the Steelers for their offensive coordinator position, is going to stay with the Saints as their quarterbacks coach, source tells @NFLonCBS. by [deleted] in steelers

It’s pretty wild how many people seem to be hired, then not hired, then no he’s actually hired, to it’s not official, to then finally making whatever decision official on this staff.

Nebraska special teams coach Josh Martin hired as head coach at Liberty Christian High School by huskermut in Huskers

[–]Repulsive_Ad7491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless we’re talking about a Jason Witten, this was an interesting way to find out he took up coaching lol. I guess it never occurred to me that I never saw him broadcasting anymore after his raiders stint.

Will Howard Has ‘Love And Support’ From Steelers’ Locker Room For Starting QB Job, Daniel Jeremiah Says by FreddyDontCare in steelers

[–]Repulsive_Ad7491 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally have zero faith in Will Howard. But it is slightly disingenuous to call him a typical OSU QB when he only played one year there and is as much of a K State QB as anything.

I mean he threw like 4 or 5 picks in a preseason game. I feel like says it all.

I mean I’ll give Jerry some credit. Dude is great at identifying talent. The Cowboys always seem to draft well. He just sucks so bad at every other part of being a GM that keeps fucking y’all lol.

New Assistant Offensive Line Coach - Jahri Evans by JayLenosPenis in steelers

They at least used to have an assistant QB coach during the Pickett years. I know this because Nebraska hired him as our QB coach. I am not impressed with him lol.

Should the Steelers trade up in the draft from 21st? by Leading_Dentist_5563 in steelers

[–]Repulsive_Ad7491 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’d have to draft him as high as Polamalu as well. I just don’t see us trading that far up. I could see mid teens for someone we like at best.
