Joe Alt, OT, Notre Dame

[powderblueboy]

Right. He wasn't any better than Herbert. Except for throwing fewer Ints.

You may, or may not recall that was a truly awful Chargers team when he replaced Herbert. and it certainly didn't get worse.

Truly awful meaning Charger starters game #17 worse than KC's backups?

Stick didn't throw an interception that game and still they lost.

Consistently not being clutch on 3rd downs has a debilitating effect on a team that goes beyond tossing a few interceptions.

Again,

I'm ready to compete against Stick to start opening game,
if Herbert can't go.

I just need that phone call.

You’re firing me up PBB!!! Get the fuck in there and compete! I believe in you …

Stay by the phone. I'm sure it's coming

That's all very nice for Nabers. Maybe we should at least wait to see Nabers do so in an actual regular-season game before we can begin to say Joe Alt HAS to be one of the five greatest offensive tackles in NFL history in order to justify Hortiz's first pick. Neither has played even an NFL preseason game yet, and people are acting like Malik Nabers is already a lock to make the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Everybody is freaking out about the Herbert injury.
And THAT is why Joe Alt is here... instead of Malik Nabers.
Run the ball... protect the QB.

Drafting a WR that can get open in 4 steps will help. if DK stays healthy, another insurance rider ...

And yet he is injured while Joe Alt is here

I saw Andy Reid and Spagnuolo vs Brandon Staley and Kellen Moore. We were clearly out coached. And yes, I believe the KC depth was better than our "starters" that played.

Hence, the McConkey pick.

And yet, Herbert won't be injured forever. It will be nice to keep him protected during the regular season... especially since he won't be rolling out as much.

Pad level is everything.

Let's compare team W-L results after the 2024 season is done. I'll take LAC over NYG. For me it will be who made their team better.

Who or what is "DK"?
