what are they doing? what are 1st downs?

How did this become a drought year?

We no longer have the personnel to run the same defense that featured Hyde and Edmunds. I would have greater respect for Frazier if he was able to adapt the scheme to the personnel than trying to do the opposite.

Which team is that? The one that lost to Arizona on a hail mary from a 5'7" baseball player? Maybe the one who lost with a lead and 13 seconds left? Or the one who made the Mona Lisa of crapping the bed on Sunday?

We don't deserve the Jigsaw-level ingenius ways this team has come up with to shoot itself in the foot and kick its fanbase in the testes.

just one game, i’d like to run every time there is a light box. for fun

edmunds took away a play!

Why can’t we give Josh the Gronkowski elbow weapon? Or did they change those rules after the Pats used it just like the no substitution plays they banned?

So we admit it is shabby at the very least.

So Donte Whitner?

I’ve been told that was in reference to the McRib being back

Yesterday felt like a drought game for sure. The opponent making the right halftime adjustments, us sticking to our guns, waiting for our QB to seal the deal but instead throwing mystery picks, the D who carried us all game getting gassed from being out there all day falling behind and watching the game slip away. Back when field goal deficits were insurmountable. Vintage Fitzpatrick/Tyrod years.

It's hard to be Edmunds agnostic. He's got a very evangelical fanbase.

Between the CBS cameraman and Josh's caterpillar lip, idk what was more infuriating.

But what everyone isn't thinking about is all the plays Edmunds took away just by being tall. Then there's all the plays he took away by having a wingspan. Then he gets credit for being the defensive captain. That's worth $20 million a year, right?

If I'm the jets I'd go for 2

should have just pushed them in the end zone

Edmunds misses a game, no big deal. Milano is out, disaster

Good play for Cook

that mustache needs to go. been nothing but bad juju

Kareem Hunt’d rolls off the tongue better.

Not really. Earlier in his career was a pro bowler. His play made it clear. Now it must be explained in a debriefing every week how his size did something, but wouldn't allow him to wrap up a tackle or escape a block. Yes, he clearly has weaknesses. The staff has made peace with his deficiencies and shuffled the defense to compensate. Thus the "he only does what's asked of him" line that we get so often. If what was asked of him was to take one side of the field while Milano took the other, this wouldn't be a topic. Also we traded up to get him. So of course he would get every opportunity to prove McBeane right. And early on, it looked like a home run. My main issue with Edmunds, is that he doesn't seem to have progressed or gained instinct. I want him to succeed. Perhaps it's the Baker Mayfield scenario where he came into the league at his ceiling and I'm just being unreasonable. But that's why I bristle at calls for him to be resigned at some crippling cap number or downplaying his whiffs. In the end, one can only be so upset with a Top 2 defense on a 6-1 team.
