    The schadenfreude of watching this place burn itself to the ground after a loss is the only thing that helps me manage my own desire to drink bleach when it inevitably happens.

    Defense is nowhere near 2016 levels.

    I think the talent across the board is greater on 2016.

    Can Penix and the motivated fat Boner make up the difference?

    Stay tuned.

    QB and WR's are better this year. WR is much deeper beyond the top-2 guys. IMO, all three starters this year are better than Pettis. QB is light years better.
    OL is better too. Penix got hit a little bit last week but he has all day to throw very often.

    Considering no injuries for each team, I think 2016 was more talented top to bottom (2023 slightly better WRs, slightly better Oline, and, well, QB) but the level of difference in QB play gives 2023 the edge.

    I'll take 2023 at EDGE also even with a healthy Mathis but I agree here. I might take 2023's TE's too though that's a really strong group on both teams.

    2016's big advantage besides defense was in the return game.

    If Deboer and Grubb were coaching the '16 team I might take that roster over '23, but probably would just rather have Penix. With the Petersen offense, not a chance I would take '16.

    *sigh put Penix on the 2016 team throwing to Ross and Pettis...
    I honestly don’t think I would take Ross and Pettis over Rome, Polk, and Jalen.
    Nope, Ross is the best individually but 2023 is better at WR2, WR3, WR4, WR5, etc. Ross and Pettis were both small and got bullied by Bama, this receiving core would not get pushed around by that secondary.

    Penix throwing bombs to Ross would have been unfair though.
    Listen, you are all getting hung up on 2016 wr vs. 2023 wr.

    I just want to see the 2016 team without a noodle armed giraffe losing 20yds on a scramble play.

    Plus Penix throwing 60yd dimes to Ross would have been NFL level vs. College DB's. Would have been Culpepper to Moss levels of unfair.
