Jaguars getting scary

Ian Rapoport @rapsheet.bsky.social · 10h

Sources: The Jaguars and Browns are making a trade.

It's CB Tyson Campbell to Cleveland for Greg Newsome II, who lands in Jax, per me and @tompelissero.bsky.social

Another day, another Cleveland trade.

Using recruit violations to knock down a coach's buyout has become a standard practice. If Belichick cannot find a landing spot to trigger his own buyout, he’s expected to accept a greatly reduced, compromised rate

Members of Belichick’s coaching staff have already spoken to other schools that are expected to be in CFB Playoff about taking on roles during the postseason. From one coach: “the rats are leaving the ship”.

Some staffers believe a change will come within two weeks

Adjusted EPA suggests Bo Nix is among the worst starting QBs in the league.

It accounts for supporting cast and opponents.

Fourth quarter vs. the Eagles was great, but Nix needs to continue to improve if the Broncos are serious Dark Horse Super Bowl contenders.

Adjusted EPA Per Play Through Week 5

Did the Seahawks upgrade from the worst to the best QB in the league over the offseason? Many are asking this question

I've seen some in Broncos Country criticizing PFF grades, but they actually like Bo Nix more than Adjusted EPA does.

Adjusted EPA accounts for supporting cast and defenses faced.

Bo Nix is decent short, still poor intermediate and good deep according to SIS.

Riley Moss is allowing a passer rating of 83.5 when targeted

83.5 would rank 26th among starting QBs this season

Moss has given up some big plays, but he's been a very good CB2 in a man heavy scheme.

Last year, it was all about the blitz for the Broncos.

In 2025, Vance Joseph is leaning into his talented defensive line and letting them win their one-on-ones.

👉 It's about manipulation instead of brute force.

Eagles running a Tex Stunt for a sack vs. the Broncos.

👉 TEX = DT 1st / DE 2nd (loop)

The Double Tex stunt occupies the Center, who slides away from the RB.

"Our season needs saving -- let's go get Joe Flacco!"

Color me dubious.

Joe Rowles @justjoro.bsky.social · 1d

Bengals look hopeless without Joe Burrow, but rather than race to the bottom for a good pick and chance at a blue chip prospect, trade for Joe Flacco.

Broncos big MNF win could be worth a lot more later this year if Cinci can become relevant if ol' Joe is still elite.

The Ben Powers injury not only costs the Broncos a good left guard, but likely spells the end for Payton's 6 OL sets being a staple.

The good news is more reps for Alex Palczewski should aid in his long term development.

Joe Rowles @justjoro.bsky.social · 2d

Broncos OL has been a strength of the team and beacon of health for most of the Payton era. Remarkably healthy last year.

Alas, injury luck is just that. Ben Powers headed to IR is gonna hurt the whole offense too. Hope Powers can come back strong for a playoff run.
