I hate to say it but regardless of what they claim I don’t really think the front office cares as much about a title as the fans. They care about profit and making money. And that isn’t an issue. So I don’t think they really want to risk that ….

I think that's the key. Policy really needs to look at the front office though, unless he wants his legacy to be tied to mediocrity. I mean, I'm not saying Love is gonna be a Hall of Famer just yet, but 3 darn QBs in a row....need to show some titles

Agree with some of what you're sayibg but not so much this part. Gute has been pretty active in FA's early waves. There was the Smiths/Turner year that worked out well. Then in 2024 he hit early and well on Jacobs and McKinney. Gute has actually done pretty well on pro-player acquisition.

It's his drafting that's just so Jekyll and Hyde for me. He's not a disaster in the draft, but frustrating at times. He values athleticism too much. Yes you need good athletes, but get better football players.

Also, stop with the versatility stuff. A good center will win you more games than a guy who plays mediocre center and guard. Find me a left tackle, not a guy who can play both LT and RG.

I don't think their problems are as bad on depth as lacking in difference makers. Who has he drafted that's been a real all-pro quality difference maker. There was JA for a few years and Gary is almost there at times, but other than that, NADA. Yes he's gotten some quality guys, especially in that 2022 draft, and Kraft has that potential, but there are almost no guys a team needs to gameplan for. No field tilters.

that's okay. we can disagree. i think even with free agency he's very hit and miss. look at this year. we needed a starter at cb and left tackle, and he brings in hobbs and banks. these guys are not jacobs and mckinney caliber players. yes he got lucky on a few free agents, but a lot of misses too.
 


Worth a watch, confirms my initial view that’s that Love’s process and throws were pretty on point, few that they were, and they just suffered from some bad drops.

The analysis of the miss to Musgrave is worth watching. When I went back and looked at that play again my first thought was that Love saw Tom get beat and saw McDonald screaming around the edge and just thought “hell no I’m not getting injured in preseason” so took an extra hop to the side, the video does a good job of showing how it messed up the timing of the play based on how the S and LB were playing.

Agree about all the ridiculous versatility hopes regarding offensive line. Versatility is great for 2nds and 3rds, but our starters need to be good at their position.
