Maine-iac

We have faced Lamar, Fields, Tua, and Rattler. Minus Tua, who only had 10 yards, the rest of those QB's are running QB's and ran for 170 yards. If you take out the QB yardage we'd be right there with KC, Philly, or the Vikings. That's a very general statement but my guess is after playing King Henry and a slew of running QB's things should even out a little. I don't think we built this defense to stuff the run but I'd guess we will settle in to the middle of the pack instead of 2nd to last.

Trying to understand the numbers but if I got it right we'd still eat over 7 million in dead cap if we move on from Knox and we'd need another TE. Probably resign him to a lesser contract and kick the dead money down the road into it.

If I wanted a big slot to play behind Shakir I'd steal Nash off Atlanta's practice squad. Former QB with 6'3" size and enough quickness and size to be a problem out of the slot.

There's 4 DB who I wanted in a Bills uniform. I was really high on Amos but that didn't happen. I was really high on Mukuba who is now starting in Philly. The next two i wanted were Nohl Williams and Zy Alexander. Nohl is getting significant playing time in KC and looking really good. For some head scratching reason Alexander, as far as I know, isn't with anyone. Like you said he was here 2 or 3 days and played one preseason game. Looked as good in coverage as Strong did at the time and even forced a turnover.

Taylor has had some decent seasons. Last year was not one of them. I could see maybe a fourth if the coaches really thought they could coach him up. I'd much rather bring back Zy Alexander. As Far as Meyers, unless you thought he'd unseat Palmer I don't see the point of using a draft pick on him. I wouldn't mind poaching Nash off Atlanta's practice squad to play big slot behind Shakir. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/T/TaylAl01.htm#all_adv_defense

just the DT's. He also likes big DE's who aren't known for being bendy.

I'll own it. My rant draft night. Was posting this before we drafted Jackson.

Separation metrics might be one of the dumbest stats out there. Tons of great WR's have terrible separation metrics because they are X WR's who catch passes in tight coverage. Slot WR's and TE's routinely have great separation metrics because they have a two way run with routes and run tons of crossing routes and go in motion. I also had a nice chuckle reading about 2 pages back about how there was no way the offense could continue on like it did last year and here we are 4 weeks in and probably doing even a little better.

We stopped the run but our tackling is still suspect at best.

Did we still get charged a time out with that injury or did we use one before that?

Maybe we'll be on punter #3 by next week.

Why did we stop running the ball?

Denver 2023 4th quarter ..........

Walker and Strong (on defense) will be our best picks in this draft. Hawes looks good also but other side of the ball.

Groot getting fiesty.

At least Andreesen can tackle.

It will be Andreesen and Ciarlo before we know it.

Didn't think that was a penalty but if that was our DB it would have been a penalty, just saying.

Was just there last week for the Miami game, then drove up to Lewiston and Brickyard Brewing .......... miss it already.

Teams want us throwing into double coverage on 50/50 balls. So do a sect of the posters on here. This why we take the profit on 6 and 7 yard gains and run the ball and end up with 30 points being patient.

Anyone remember the Saints thrashing early in McDermotts career? Ingram and Kamara both went over 100 yards.

Bosa getting shoved in the back ........ flag is on us in the secondary.

Fake to nobody for a nice gain should not be a thing .......................

This is just too easy.

I know we need to get snaps for all the DT's but I'd have Walker in there the lion's share. I'm not sure he's a run stopping plug but he is the most disruptive guy we have on the interior.
