Calling it now: You're all about to witness the arrival of Shakir
NewEra replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’m not trying to get you agree with me. I made a statement- you disagreed with it. I’m ok with that 👍🏻 -
Lattimore to the commanders for a “premium pick” 3rd round and more

Calling it now: You're all about to witness the arrival of Shakir
NewEra replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
But being consistent for 14 seasons has nothing to do with my comment. If Shakir got hurt and his yac ability took a huge hit then my take on the matter would change. But as it stands, Shakir’s yac skills are better than Hines ward. And it doesn’t matter how long he’s done it or will do. I’m talking about Shakir’s current ability -

It’s my eyes, not my heart. Shakir is a more explosive athlete with better burst and natural make you miss ability. Think what you like. Shakir is special with the ball in his hands in the open field. -

NewEra replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
You’re confusing particular skills with overall ability based on total body of work. That’s fine- I just know what my eyes tell me. Shakir is better yac (much better imo) than Hines Ward. John Brown is a better vertical WR than Anquan Boldin. It doesn’t matter if Boldin is a fringe hall of famer or not. Blind homerism, if you say so. I disagree. -
Kansas City/Tampa Bay on Monday Night Football
NewEra replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
The logical conclusion after watching the chiefs OTs hold in the playoffs and never get called for ONE is that there’s something fishy going on -
Oh well. Smith would’ve been amazing- great trade for Detroit. Glad he’s not in the afc

No clue what wards yac average was. That’s fine, you don’t have to. I have no problem saying what my eyes tell me. If stats say something different, so be it. Shakir is special with the ball in his hands -

NewEra replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
I didn’t compare him to anyone. All I said was that his yac ability is better than both mentioned -

Walker and ward didn’t have nearly the yac game that Shakir has -
Kansas City/Tampa Bay on Monday Night Football
NewEra replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
We watched him hold Bosa relentlessly in the Super Bowl. And get zero calls. The tackle tandems that held relentlessly all season didn’t get flagged for one holding in the playoffs? Any idea how many holding calls they’ve had in the playoffs? the facemask on wirfs last night was the worst yet. Bucs get 7 on a run, in KC territory- no. 15 yard face mask when there was clearly no face mask. Bucs have to settle for 3. -
Because pass rush wins super bowls. Without a good one, you aren’t beating KC. Our pass rush is average. We lost Smoot. We lost Carter. Trading for pass rusher is always a good idea.

NewEra replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
One terrible penalty and the drive is over -
I don’t think he has less except at WR and we haven’t really seen what kind of an impact Cooper will have once he and Josh get some chemistry. He has more at TE. More at RB and a better OL. I would take past defenses over this one, but none of them were close to healthy or good enough come playoffs.
-
Taron is all pro. It’s tough for boundary corners but benford will probably get one at some point. Bernard has a chance if he can stay healthy for a year but I don’t know if that’s possible. bit that’s about it unless Rousseau continues to improve

The decision to go for the FG - right or wrong?
NewEra replied to Matt_In_NH's topic in The Stadium Wall
Just the type of play that happens to the Bills. Just never against Miami with Josh Allen under center -
Huge loss. He’s been a great FA value. I hope he’s available and 💯 come playoffs
-
Zadarius Smith would really give any of the current contenders the edge. And he’s under contract next year at a decent rate. Similar to the Douglas trade last year. He’s the guy I want. Not sure if it’s possible, but I think he would make a biggest Impact of anyone attainable. Armstead Ojulari C Campbell Chase young sebastion Joseph day J simmons dremont Jones Dexter Lawrence (yeah I know) Not sure other DTs on the block Slayton Mathieu
-
You’re using 40 time as evidence that Elam should be playing over Douglas and/or Benford? Both Douglas and Benford have been great. Elam sits because they are better.
-
Agreed. Love me some James Cook but paying a RB would be a bad idea. Even worse idea knowing we have Ray Davis.
-
Could be a great trade for Az. Before he got hurt last season he was really impressive as a pass rusher. Haven’t seen him play since the injury. Glad he went to the NFC
-
Agreed- but I would flip flop Shakir and Bernard if Bernard goes down with another injury. I love the dude. Helluva LB, leader and person. Just seems like he’s always going to be injured. That said, I don’t think there’s much chance that McD would let him go
-
I think we’d probably address defense before adding another WR, but man…. I’d LOVE to land Slayton. Some will and they’ll get a great addition.
