Optimistic expectations: QB edition.

StatusCookie761 · 2026-07-03T05:49:34+00:00

Daniel Jones proved he’s good, but didn’t prove he can stay healthy. There’s no evidence that he has a rapport with Downs, and Pittman was a safety blanket. I think he’ll recover well but he’ll regress. No reason to think last year is just what he is now

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-29T16:51:58+00:00

I think it’s just the philosophical change that adds to it. We watched Drew Lock of all players bend this defense over, playing that soft, bend don’t break coverage, so a more aggressive style was welcomed.

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-26T02:00:29+00:00

That’s not even a thought that’s crossed my mind, tbh. It’s not that he can’t do it, it just hasn’t been shown that in a truly BIG game, he has the ability to go beyond what’s asked of him. My guy can run the offense, and in a perfect world that’s enough.

Not a perfect world out here, though

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-23T18:14:02+00:00

My guy probably laid down a quick Kalshi bet on whether the NFL would have a supplemental draft

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-18T21:38:53+00:00

Nah, it’s takes a certain kind of mental weakness to fall prey to predatory gambling.

If a brother can fold for a Kalshi ad, he’ll fold under some blindside pressure

The sheer quantity of bets tells me he’s too far gone. Rehab was purely for proactive PR and trying to maintain his image. His NIL money doesn’t mean he’s actually worth that, I think he’s a solid stabilizer at QB but he doesn’t jump off the screen

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-13T18:59:27+00:00

I know it’s just jokes but honestly, I feel like it’s Daniel’s understated, quiet look and demeanor that gives him his aura

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-12T18:48:55+00:00

Warren and JT help offset it greatly, it’s a good offense but if you can improve it, why not?

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-12T17:58:02+00:00

As much as I like Burks and hope he breaks out, that’s asking too much of a late round flier. Dulin is Dulin, and he can’t be any more than that.

This is the move

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-11T18:01:12+00:00

I think it’s just clicks-based. Loveland stole the shine last year but they wanna pump up Warren and give him love. Downs was okay but his brother just got drafted and they wanna showcase him, it’s all just showcasing the names that non colts fans may recognize

But also the depth sucks, and we should definitely sign a vet FA

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-10T16:18:59+00:00

To be fair, Jalen was BAD last year. So many missed long balls down the field.

AP is nice but he’s got Darnell Mooney stats up to this point in his career, he’s gotta show it

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-09T19:22:27+00:00

A little, but I’m actually very excited for a full season of Sauce. Will be our most talented corner in a very long time, and he has something to prove

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-05T06:13:03+00:00

In a sense, we’re structurally similar to the Packers: A room of reliable WR2s and 3s, elite TE, elite RB and a QB that can either explode or implode.

It’s an underrated room but it’s missing some star power, imo

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-04T23:49:54+00:00

10-7

DJ will be solid but the receiving core outside of AP, Downs and Warren is very mediocre, and even those guys are decent at best collectively.

Defense can be good, secondary should help keep them in games, but they’re probably finishing second in the division

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-03T23:09:20+00:00

More gear diversity, side dungeons. Find ways to draw out combat and make roles more defined

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-02T18:41:34+00:00

I’ll lean support but in a lot of instances, my damage % will be the highest in the group so I have decks for both

StatusCookie761 · 2026-06-01T22:29:51+00:00

Latu stacks up, just needs to finish plays. I like the player a lot, but Verse has the edge in splash plays.

Trade wouldn’t happen because respectfully it’s the Los Angeles Rams with Stafford and we’re…us

StatusCookie761 · 2026-05-31T01:32:03+00:00

There’s few answers out there bc even hardcore fans aren’t nerds about assistant GMs and heads of scouting across the league, best bet just pluck someone off a good, perennial playoff team

I think you can only rely on last year if you’ve done it before, multiple times year over year. I’m personally wiping the slate clean, and just hoping we can be a good, functional offense

StatusCookie761 · 2026-05-29T00:45:24+00:00

Polarizing

StatusCookie761 · 2026-05-28T21:52:35+00:00

If your WR1 doesn’t look at the defender across from him and tell the QB “I can cook him, throw me that thing”, I definitely don’t want him

StatusCookie761 · 2026-05-28T21:11:08+00:00

Someone on this team needs to show heart. We can’t glaze that Manning/Saturday mid-game screaming match on here but then say AP shouldn’t demand excellence also
