OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: Ploff wins?!? Fire Tomlin

[Goalie_Bob]

ehh, there's like zero chance higgins chooses to sign with us. our passing offense is not nfl quality

I think he either stays in Cincinnati or goes to New England because they can afford to throw a crapload of money his way and they have a young QB.

He can be the alpha dog there and get tons of targets and receptions.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Aren't you all tired of the hamster wheel of flawed quarterbacks? Which a lower round pick almost certainly would be again.

The only choice sitting at 21 is to go with Fields.

In the unlikely event that he finally gets it together, great. If not, please crash and burn.

The Steelers are stuck, and so are we, until they can have a more reasonable chance at a quarterback at the top of the draft. Top ten pick for sure.

The pats will be extremely busy in free agency rebuilding the o line and the roster
I don’t think Cincinnati can afford Higgins and Chase plus retool the defense

I wonder whether the Chargers might make a play for him. Don't know their cap situation, but there's a team that needs some results now that are short of weapons.

Most of the teams who are interested in Higgins have bad o line and don’t have great passing games either

which teams are those, i haven't seen any articles yet.

if he was smart, he'd go to a team with a good QB in place. OLs are much easier to fix than a QB problem/offensive scheme problem that we have

they are 6th in most cap space going into next year.

Mconkey looks good, i think he's a great #2.
that quintin guy hasn't lived up to his draft status.
i can see them making a play

Bears are 5th in cap space. and now have a HC who knows the importance of the passing game. allen is just about washed, they could give caleb a couple of huge weapons on the outside with higgins and rome

Bears will invest heavily on the o line. Johnson coming over from the lions and they have 4 1st rounders on that o line. They already have DJ Moore
The chargers probably bring back Allen cheap and bring in Kupp cheap. They are still a run heavy team Slater is getting paid
