  1. I doubt it happens because he knows it would be a practice squad job, maybe he can get the permanent call if he makes an impact but its not a ton of money for a guy who made like 30 million in his career. However... at one point with Kumerow and Crowder this team had 6 WR on the active roster. Moving Benford to IR sort of opens up a spot there (i assume he only comes off if someone gets hurt). Lewis probably can come off.
  2. I suppose we could and probably will a bit... thats not exactly our forte though.
  3. They were 13-3 with Rex Grossman, and 11-5 the year before with Orton. Those are Lovie Smith teams though. Both Jaurons 13-3 team, and Smiths 11-5 team had 5 defensive scores. The 11-5 team had a crappier offense, but I'd say both were really lucky in many ways. As for great players... Urlacher, Mike Brown, Colvin. The 05 team had Briggs who was really solid as a SAM, Vasher/Tillman who were really good.
  4. Spector and Lewis are the ones most likely to move off the roster for me. Adding Klein pushes Spector into 7th on depth chart. Lewis is behind rhodes elam jackson and white, and now behind marlowe at S as well. I see both going to PS for Stevenson/Boettger. After that: Kumerow comes back - Murray comes off for oline assuming you're comfortable with boettger. Benford probably just stays on IR unless a DB gets hurt. You have white, elam, rhodes, Jackson. He won't play so I'd keep him on IR unless someone gets hurt. Wildcard is john brown. If he can make an impact from the practice squad call-ups i could see them bringing him to active roster like rhodes. Likely also injury insurance though for someone going out.
  5. Yeah, if you want to buy tickets it says date: TBD.
  6. I also like to eat with my family and not have to plan around football games that traditionally don't matter to me.
  7. Yeah, he never had very good ball skills either. He had 15 picks in 9 years which isn't terrible and he improved at breaking up passes, but he was often there and surrendering catches from what i remember.
  8. I don't think we run enough RPOs tbh. The issue is every RPO is a slant.
  9. Not to mention... you have to negotiate someone else on your teams contract with said agent who now has a pretty poor opinion of your organization.
  10. He needs work in man coverage - He struggles when his eyes arent on the QB. He was drafted as a zone corner. His man coverage skills aren't terrible, he's usually in the right place, hes just late getting his head around. Id even say his ball skills aren't terrible as he's usually trying to disrupt the catch point - but it's always been after the receiver catches it, not before. At this point I think he needs the bench for a minute for a confidence boost.
  11. Yeah. You can't get caught as far up field or you create rushing lanes so it's harder to bait the linemen too far up field.
  12. Wasn't this a 0 blitz? That's sort of a tough throw to ask of Goff since he probably isn't stepping up into it.
  13. it's speculative, but definitely was more of an issue around the time it occurred. It was major enough that he missed a game, but likely minor enough that he practices.
  14. Nice thing about the gimmicky stuff too is that instead of allen in the pocket scanning the field, its read a single guy. Hand off or pass. Pitch or hand off.
  15. I think it impacts his route running. And even when he ran a TD for 98 yards it was still clearly bothering him.
  16. Beasley doesn't fix our recent red zone problems. We act like we need him on 3rd downs. We are converting at a higher rate in 2022 vs. 2021 - 50% vs 46.4%. We are worse in the red zone at 51.3% vs 62.3%, but having beasley doesn't impact that as he had 0 RZ TDs in 2021.
  17. Position-less. Run those linebackers and nickel backs ragged moving them around the formation, force them into zone adjustments that you can pick apart.
  18. He was money on hitches in the browns game. Is that one of the 3? lol Playing through a bum ankle most of the season is always going to make jumping out of cuts etc more difficult.
  19. I'm not seeing him targeted much at all for whatever reason. I'd buy all-22 but i dont even know what i'd be looking at. Play design has a lot to do with things, route spacing, is he primary, was the play checked... etc.
  20. We're so strapped for WRs at the moment with Kumerow/Crowder/Stevenson all on IR. I can't imagine making him inactive, but I could see decreasing the snap count and being more selective about his usage. The goal having both Hines and Cook is a personnel grouping that is almost position-less. Add Mckenzie and Knox and you basically have 4 players who you can line up in the backfield or at WR, several of which are matchup issues. Ideally you try to run a no huddle type of offense with that grouping for a drive or something.
  21. ARTICLE 5. FREE KICK CROSSES GOAL LINE It is a touchback, if a free kick: is not touched by the receiving team, and the ball touches the ground in the end zone.
  22. That is an exaggeration. He hasn't been everything Buffalo needs of him, but as i understand hes a good teammate and has made plenty of plays for the team. Why don't you want Davis off the roster if we're looking at players making mental mistakes? He has 4 TDs all in the RZ as of today, and our team is struggling in the red zone... You can give some of his snaps to Shakir, but hes faster and more dynamic than him as a runner after the catch. You can give some others to hines and cook.
  23. Usually it means angle routes. You can do a flare too where if they're in zone they're basically forced to play off of it, in which case you get 1x1s and with good blocking it can be a pretty big play with little to no complicated play design.
  24. Mckenzie in some jet motion too. Baltimore does some pistol stuff where they will have backs on either side and the motion man jetting behind QB. It's all weird eye candy but if you aren't prepared for it, it can be difficult to defend.
