Miyagi-Do Karate

would like to see both brown and AJE sit this one out— Brown because we need his calf to get right and AJE so we can see more of Solomon and Landon Jackson out there in real game action.

In a weird way, I dislike the saints. When we were in the drought, they would basically sign every free agent out there and kick their cap obligations way down the road. I remember feeling particularly annoyed when they signed Jairus Byrd. well, after years of financial irresponsibility, the chickens have come home to roost. I will be glad to absolutely stomp these guys.

I wonder what the rationale for that rule is. Is the concern that it is almost like an onsides kick?

had two guys wide open too. Their slot guy was basically wide open right over the middle and Murray had time to throw it. Too jittery.

Bet Murray is looking to run here.

totally agree. That dude was a beast in college. Really surprising. If I had to guess, I think it’s mostly on him. I know he tried to bulk up to get stronger, but not sure that is the answer. I don’t get it.

Agree. I don’t get what is going on there. Watching this prime vision though, I don’t love the routes Harrison runs.

also eye opening how Marvin Harrison isn’t very good.

Especially for a crappy game like this, it’s perfect. Can watch the plays develop really nicely.

Watch this game on “prime vision.” It’s much more interesting.

especially the NFC west!

how could I forget Kyle— that walking ball of butcher knives!!!??

just amazing how even seeing Fred Jackson there makes me so happy!! Some of those guys on those drought teams were probably some of my all-time favorites— Fred Jackson, McGee, Moorman, Fitz.

I agree with all of this. I definitely think the ravens are way better. Mahomes though is clutch, and the ravens seem to choke down the stretch. I am just picturing some late Mahomes magic.

Mahomes isn’t losing in a must-win game at home.

Was going to be hard enough to get the rookie in there. But forget about it now. He’s not playing this year.

tough for Solomon to do anything if he only gets to play 9 snaps!!

Now this announcing crew feels like the good ole drought days!!

line him up next to Rapp, and Rapp will knock all that crap right out of him.

I am not saying you are wrong. I would prefer cutting from another position group.

No way he clears. He will be snatched up.

you may be right, but I hope not. one of the “good problems” with having a really good team is we end up losing late-round diamonds in the rough because they never get a chance to play and develop. People are dying to pay big bucks to guys like Hendrickson and Crosby, who were developmental later round picks who only developed because they got to play. It took Hendrickson until his 4th year to really breakout.

Agreed. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s like a 42-10 type score.

Solomon needs way more snaps, and the saints game is perfect for it! I don’t know how we can knock Solomon for lack of production when he only got 9 snaps (and I am guessing some of those plays were probably runs too).

Haha— yup, gotta tuck the ball to preserve those stats!
