CB still being in the protocol is expected. I do not think him missing practice today for personal reasons has any impact on the protocol. Personally, I think he will go, but we will likely not know until around 5pm on Sunday.

He literally says in the Yankees video "we fly out tonight". The flight time from NYC to Buffalo is ~1.5 hours. The game ended at around 11:30pm, assuming he stayed the entire time, he was likely home and in bed by 2:30am. If one of the guys said in a presser today that "Yeah, Josh and a few of the guys were up til almost 3am playing Call Of Duty last night" half the board would be saying "this team is so tight, the league better watch out". Let the man enjoy his life and hard-earned cash without assuming it means doom and gloom for the game this weekend.

Metcalf listed as Doubtful for the game

I think people are forgetting that Mike White and his knowledge of the Dolphin's offensive scheme is now employed by OBD. Sure PO is going to help their defense, but I'd be willing to bet Mike White has brought extremely valuable information as well.

Allen will almost assuredly be extended/sign a new deal in the offseason. First to get him back in line with the top QBs, and second to reduce this hit

Fake account

The edge defender coming off of Allen's blindside and knocking him out for the year... *edit spelling

he absolutely cannot say no. It’s a mechanism in the contract that converts money, it doesn’t take it away. They do not need Allen’s approval or signature. A restructure is not a new contract.

You're right, he was elite pre-injuries.

I think Joe Brady as OC is going to be an interesting one. There are quite a few OC jobs open and you have to figure he is going to be on the list for several of them. Most notably, I think Cincy is the biggest threat to poach him if we decide to take our time on the decision. Brady was the passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach at LSU in 2019 when they won the National Championship with Burrow and Chase. One would assume he has a good relationship with both players and that opening would be appealing.

I was thinking about this. We are already a day behind in prep work/rest. It’s going to really suck if because of the weather the team can’t get to the facility tomorrow and get treatment and begin practice for Sunday.

It really didn’t though. It was pretty doom and gloom leading up to that Buccaneers loss. We went embarrassing loss to the Jags, killed the jets, got demolished by the colts, killed the saints, wind game, loss to the Bucs. Luckily they figured something out as a team during that bucs comeback attempt and rode it the rest of the year. But prior to that, they looked inconsistent and tight, much like they do now

Good on Beane for making a push but having other forks in the fire as well. Would Jaylon have been awesome? Absolutely! Am I thrilled that we didn't get left at the alter and went ahead and made a play for a pretty good player in Douglas when it became apparent Johnson wasn't happening? You better believe it

Good on Beane for having multiple forks in the fire and being able to pivot when he realized Jaylon wasn't happening https://x.com/Schultz_Report/status/1719443222185799811?s=20

He will absolutely start. He is currently the 12-rated CB this season and on a deal that we can easily extend. A pretty damn good commodity versus an unknown 3rd round pick is a good trade-off to me, especially considering we get a 5 back and will likely recoup the 3 as a comp pick from Edmunds

This is exactly what I was going to say! Definitely more of a reflection on them. Great move

If the rumors of Suh are legit, then it leads me to believe (hope) that Beane is targeting CB or LB via trade. He is dealing with limited resources so as much as we would all love for him to make big splash trades to fill the holes left by injury, it's just not feasible. My hope is that he has identified his target, and is attempting to plug/patch some of the other holes with cheap vet signings so he can commit what resources he does have to land his preferred target.

Norman being up doesn't mean he is going to start. It means if push comes to shove, they don't trust Elam and would rather put Norman into the lineup. Fingers crossed, he doesn't even see the field tonight

If it is true Isabella is up, who is he replacing at WR? Sherfield? Harty? Or do we go with 2 running backs and sit down Ty?

For Thursday night games, teams do not have to announce until 4pm on the day of the game I believe

Cook missed due to personal reasons. No game designations have been given yet. IMO nothing to worry about unless he misses again tomorrow. EDIT: James Cook had a baby today per Katherine Fitzgerald

The 49ers have done this in the past. They stay in Youngstown, Ohio where their owner was raised and still has family in the area. They last did it in 2019, coincidentally when Jimmy G was the QB.

YouTube TV offers a free trial. I subscribed on Thursday and have been extremely impressed. You can cancel the free trial right away and still have access for the entire trial period.

Beane said in his presser that they will have a qb finalized tomorrow. So someone from the PS will likely be let go
