PostGame Thread 2025 AFCCG OFFICIAL POSTGAME THREAD: We're on to the Super Bowl!!!

[UrbanCowboy]

I can’t believe we only gave up seven points since some in the GDT said our defense sucked, they were pathetic, the coaches sucked and were totally getting out coached. How is this possible?

That's the beauty of the GDT ... appreciating the absurdity ... makes it fun in a weird way. Someone just said .. I'd like to think even the people saying the craziest things know they're over-reacting.

How many "meh" playcalls did McDaniels call through the years that Brady either successfully executed anyways or changed on the fly? I ask myself this because sans Brady, he seems to really struggle when it comes to adjusting against great or elite defenses.

 

[bormio]

lol at New York... never ever thought I'd see them take on an inferior complex towards us.

That’s the Jets’ job - oh wait

 

[Lagaffe_07]

Oh, I didn't know Hooper played in one.

Thanks for replying and not making me feel stupid.

He played for Atlanta in SB 51. He caught a TD actually in that game

I thought it was crazy the way people were ripping apart Gonzalez and the defense after one mistake. Especially after they carried the offense the previous two games. If anyone deserved a break, they did lol.

How many folks are gonna inevitably say?…

-Lowe at LT/or draft another young LT with longer arms
-Campbell to LG
-Slide Wilson to his natural position at C or sign Linderbaum in FA
-Let Onwenu walk/draft another RG/Try Wilson at RG
-Draft RT

The morons can say it all they want, but Campbell's arms aren't an issue, and Vrabel isn't looking for a new left tackle. He will however continue to build their offensive line this offseason. Hopefully that starts with signing Lindebaum, which I think got a boost from Harbaugh s firing. Then they can go RT in the draft if they want to, or interior OL, or both. Moses and Bradbury were signed as band aids, not long term solutions, and Vrabel will be looking to start bringing their long term replacements along.

Well they will keep Campbell at LT next year no question. They will let the guy develop. But depending on how it goes a switch to guard after his second or third year isn’t out of the question.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I didn't think they gave Campbell much help yesterday and it wasn't a big problem.

He handled Bonitto just fine yesterday.

I am far more concerned about Jared Wilson than I am Will Campbell.

People said the same thing about Matt Light..

Before he got hurt he was graded in the top ~15-20 in run and pass blocking at LT. He needs strength. He needs a full offseason of training at an NFL level. He needs to continue to learn technique.

No question hes had some problems at LT in the playoffs but need to be patient with the kid.

If he sucks monkey balls next year then there is a conversation to be had about moving him to LG no question.

Yeah, Drake had…was it Rhamondre…open heading to the back corner of the end zone and Drake had to let it go early. Campbell is rook. Communication and split second decisions need to be made in the moment. As a line….collectively…if they work hard on this in the upcoming two weeks and give Drake some time, that gives this offense a better chance to make a play either Drakes arm and his wideouts or with his legs. Again, we go as our O-line goes. Need a big game from him.

 

[SlowGettingUp]

Even Orlovsky (One of the few knowledgeable ESPN talents) was commenting on his poor play. Maybe two weeks off does help. Or, maybe he is not someone who should be taking on the best DL's and will eventually get kicked to guard.

 

[NFL Mystique]

Idk why different analysts are saying different things.

Because some (Taylor Kyles) actually watched the game, and didn't wait for Felger to get their talking points.

That’s all I was saying.

Campbell has been fine this year. I don’t know if he is 100% healthy in these playoffs and that would explained some of his struggles. I think he lost some confidence too.

The entirety of the offense seem to have lost confidence. They played with such swagger in the regular season. Drake was so calm and poised in the pocket. Even against good fronts like the Browns. Being sacks 6 times by Myles Garrett didn’t seem to bother him one bit.

But in these playoffs I find Maye not so calm, indecisive at times. It’s weird.

 

[bormio]

Which was the clip someone posted here yesterday and then claimed he was awful

 

[bormio]

A Denver site said Bonitto had 30 snaps yesterday but does not appear on the game stat sheet. Campbell must have been horrible
