bigduke6 replied to Freddie's Dead's topic in The Stadium Wall
Saints injuries are on offense, so far our D is doing just fine. Saints D is actually pretty decent. -

What players are true draft busts under Beane?
bigduke6 replied to Roundybout's topic in The Stadium Wall
and Taylor behind this current line would probably be crap. theres more to being a good productive RB than your own talent. u need a line to at least give u a chance. our current line cant do that. -
build from the trenches out, thats how id fix every team in the league. u dominate the trenches, doesnt matter much what else u have. Dilfer won a Super Bowl cuz his teams lines were crazy good. great Oline play can make a mediocre RB into a god. great DLine play can make mediocre back end players seem amazing. the premium positions are always the Lines, and of course QB. great QB cant do much if hes running for his life every snap tho.

every coach wants to go into every game with the best players he can. i think McD is just disappointed at the situation hes in, (he's not the only one) was only a matter of time before guys who chose to not get vaxxed start costing teams games and or playoff seeding etc. thats their choice, and whether u like it or not, it hurts their respective teams. McD is just being diplomatic when answering questions about this. im sure he respects their choices, but, im sure he'd rather have his full arsenal to compete in these games. its a sticky situation. best ability, is availability. at the same time, if u cant rely on these guys, u gotta make some decisions come next season. doesnt appear this virus is going away, and most likely the protocols wont either. so do u put your faith in hoping that these players dont get it again, or do u move on. this problem, not handled correctly, will absolutely split a lockeroom, just as easily as it has split our society. McD and management are in a tough place.

What are your expectations for the rest of the season?
bigduke6 replied to Success's topic in The Stadium Wall
i fully expect more highs, and lows. one thing thats consistent about this season is, its very inconsistent -
probably a bit of both tbh.

Time to bring out the pitchforks for Beane ?
bigduke6 replied to Teddy KGB's topic in The Stadium Wall
pitchforks for Beane? for what exactly? with what little he had this past offseason, yer lucky u got what u got. no GM is going to hit on 100% of his picks, or free agents. ya'll assume Beane didnt want to address O LIne or TE or whatever in the draft, mbe just mbe the draft didnt fall his way, and he took what he could get without reaching. theres no science here in evaluating players, there is no 100% yes, or 100% no, its grey, its muddy. How many peeps said Mahomes would be crap in the NFL cuz he came from an air raid offense? tons. tons of guys in the league that had decades of experience. tons. nobody really knows. look at Allen, mbe the people crapping on him are still right, even after last year. we dont really know. most of this stuff is extremely complicated and alot comes down to dumb luck. so in hindsight, as outsiders its really easy to say, hey we needed, this, that, or the other thing. Beane knows where and what our deficiencies are. that doesnt mean everything lines up so that he can easily fix them immediately every season. -
pretty much, no dominant teams atm, games being decided by inconsistent reffing and fluke plays. makes me wonder if this is something the NFL truly wants, nothing gets the gamblers salivating like parity and inconsistency.

ive been hesitant to declare anything about this team since week 1 tbh. i stated here many times that i didnt see what the guys in Vegas saw about this team being the Super Bowl favorites all season. i sincerely doubt they will be after this week. the offense has looked dreadful on more than one occasion this season, we have zero running game to open up cover 2 defenses. we arent really set up offensively for late Nov-Dec football. now onto the defense, the so called "Legendary" (stat wise until this week) defense. i posted the Legendary article earlier this week, and while the stats backed it up, the article didnt take into affect the fact we played so many garbage QBs. we got fat off terrible offenses. even the Chiefs were playing like crap when we finally beat them. not so much now. add these things all together and i think any rational person would be hesitant to expect Super Bowl at this point. we need some sort of running game, spread offenses dont work if your QB doesnt get time to throw. mbe this is fixed with missing players coming back. right now the trenches are the problems. also, u cant turn the ball over and expect to win consistently.

Many on this board deserve a pat on the back
bigduke6 replied to 78thealltimegreat's topic in The Stadium Wall
was a weak O LIne draft this year, and where we were picking i believe Beane thought it best to address the D Line due to its depth in the draft. plus, the guys we did have are getting old and will need to be decided upon when i comes to letting go, new contracts etc. drafting D LIne allowes Beane more flexibility this coming offseason. he couldnt foresee the injuries on the O Line. Mongo while being merely average is a huge upgrade over having to rely on Ford, and Brown was starting to play very well until u know what happened. Beane is no dummy, he will def address O Line this offseason. keep in mind that we were cap strapped this offseason so anybody who thinks we could have found something worthwhile for the O Line via free agency is dreaming. -

bigduke6 replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
look, we all have expectations for this team, nobody is playing well atm. u look around the league and this crap is happening to just about every team. seemingly good teams losing to garbage teams, players who are considered great or good looking like garbage. it happens, its not just us. -
