Brian Winters Case Study

Coming from a background of playing defensive back for Yale, coaching college football for nine years, and coaching high school for the last five years, Linta has developed an impressive eye for talent. To find these players, Linta has built a network around him who sends him film of players he might be interested in. What he is looking for, he cannot describe, he says he just knows football and knows how to pick out players with high potential.

What makes Bowles’ defense most effective is when both safeties have the ability to play in coverage and in the box. Which, the Jets have struggled to find in recent years. But, hopefully that will change with the Jets recent draft selections in Jamal Adams and Marcus Maye. The Jets are in the midst of a rebuild and are trying to get younger, faster and stronger on defense. In an ideal world Bowles would love to deploy 3 safeties in this game plan and hopefully he has that ability with Pryor, Adams and Maye on the roster now. Bowles defense also relies on a NT that can take on blockers and free up the ends and linebackers to get after the quarterback. Damon Harrison thrived in this role in 2015 and it showed with the Jets defensive numbers. In 2016 Steve McClendon was suppose to fill Harrison’s void, but he struggled to occupy blockers. Deon Simon has shown promise as a player that can play the NT position in Bowles defense. Which should help the Jets get more pressure on the quarterback at a more consistent

Some fans are ready to cut or trade Jameis because he is not leading the Buccaneers to the promise land this year. Im not sure but I am certain that Jameis can not run the ball on running downs. Block on passing plays and play defense. Lets not just put all the blame on Jameis when it is a team game. He is the only quaterback that gets the critism when the team plays bad and get hit with a but when the team is playing well.

I believe that Barber is the new Sherriff in town, and I have faith that he will step up to the plate and be the back we need. He is more than capable. Allowing Barber the chance to start next season leaves the option to trade Doug Martin. If anyone is willing to risk the

As of right now, the Bucs have Z-E-R-O players with any ability to pass rush. Sure, Robert Ayers is good at what he does, but don't expect more than 6 sacks out of him. William Gholston is a great “run stopping” left DE but don't expect him to get to the opposing QB very often. Last year we drafted Noah Spence and he has shown flashes of his skills, but he has been injured most of the year.

Any team in need of a defensive end or linebacker would benefit from adding Neal. Not only would a team get a prolific run stopper, but they would also get a “great team guy”. His former Packers’ teammates held Neal in high regard, and if it were up to them Neal would still be on the Packers roster.

The New York Jets 2017 starting quarterback needs to be named now. Head coach Todd Bowles has been handling Josh McCown with kid gloves. The gloves need to come off if this Jets team will have any chance of succeeding and Bowles wishes to keep his job.

This is may be an unpopular signing but I think Mike Glennon joins the Jets. Right now, the only quarterbacks on the roster are Bryce Petty and Christian Hackenberg. Petty played admirably last season as the starter, while Hackenberg is nowhere near ready.

Entering 2017, Flacco loses yet another weapon in Steve Smith, and he’ll need Mike Wallace and free agency pickup Jeremy Maclin to pick up the slack. For a team that loves to pound the rock, the Ravens are fairly thin in the backfield; but they picked up Danny Woodhead in the offseason, who should help if he can stay healthy.

Every Sunday during football season, there is one place I will always be, no matter what. As I drive down Lake Cook Road, I feel a sudden excitement. Sundays are my favorite day of the week because I get to not only spend time with my grandparents, but also watch our favorite Chicago sports team play for three hours. I have watched every single Bears game with my grandparents since I was eight. We have been through it all, from Rex Grossman as our quarterback to Marc Trestman as our head coach. However, recently, I have noticed something about our conversations during the games. We always debate whether the Bears should keep Jay Cutler next season. He has always proven to be turnover-prone, but has been clutch throughout the season. The Chicago Bears should keep Jay Cutler next season because he has proven to be one of the better quarterbacks in the NFL.

With the departure of McDaniel, the team will look to rely more on Ahtyba Rubin, their 29-year old free agent signee, to anchor their defense. Jordan Hill, a third-year player, is also an option. Other defensive players in the Seahawks include Jesse Williams, Jimmy Staten, T.Y. McGill and D’Anthony Smith.

First, the (limited) amount of bad news. Quarterback has not changed much, and keeping Tony Romo healthy is job one. He does come into the season in better shape than he has been in the past three years or so. The team has to hope he does not miss any significant time. There are good reviews for Brandon Weeden, but they don't sound all that different from last year's reports on him, and we all painfully remember how that turned out the one game they tried to rely on him. Dustin Vaughan may or may not be an answer, but right now he does not look to be an answer this year.

He also has the record for most wins by a single goaltender in one season in Islanders history. Sadly, his stats have quickly gone down ever since 2015. Halak is 32, an old age for NHL standards. The Islanders can afford to resign Jaro, but it must come at the right price. Like Seidenberg and Kulemin, the best years are behind him. The organization will be able to see whether or not Halak should remain an Islander throughout the remainder of the season. It is probable that Halak will ask for 2.5 million dollars per year, due to the fact that no team attempted to sign him last season when he was waived by the Islanders. It is likely Halak will not be on the team next year because the Isles are searching for a long term answer, plus Thomas Greiss is signed for the upcoming season.

He was a free agent since then and he may soon find a new team in Minnesota.

Also GSA cofounder Clint Harris was concerned about their abilities. With a call to CEO of GM, conclude that due diligence of Ray Turner is a key to drive this team. As well need time to calibrate on their judgment and skill (no track record).
