Blank Stare

Exactly. How many reports do we hear during training camp about Jerry Hughes wrecking practice? For years now. When has that translated to the regular season since when we had Kyle, Dareus, and Mario? Look, I’m not putting it all on him. He doesn’t have much help. But eventually the excuses need to stop. The great ones still find ways to make plays.

I actually really hate games in the elements. Sure, a snow game is a cool look on TV. Watching this Oakland vs. Houston game, I just like the thought of team vs. team. Man vs. man. Best team wins. No rain, snow, or wind preventing you from being who you really are or what you want to do that day. Yes, both teams play in it. Yes, the coaches should factor weather into their game plans, but call me crazy for wanting to see a good clean game free from the elements.

Hughes has basically been invisible on pass rush. He’s all we really have there. Don’t get consistent enough pressure and sacks on a QB to force turnovers.

Kyle Allen not the savior everyone thought he might be. Granted he’s on the road against SF, but talks of Cam being run out of town are crazy and premature IMO. Guy’s shoulder was wrecked last year and he played through it until they were out. When he’s on and healthy, Cam is a good starting QB in this league and should be appreciated in the current state of the league that’s starving for good QB play (moody personality aside).

The play calls where Daboll has Allen sprinting to right or left as frequently as he does are incredibly frustrating. You eliminate one half of the field immediately and on purpose. Essentially doing the defense a favor. I get that Josh is good on the run, but you know what’s more impactful? Calling an offense that makes the defense respect you and cover the entire field.

WTF was that?!

Agreed. I don’t think McKenzie should ever be inactive. At least until we have someone better. He’s a weapon in Daboll’s offense. If you sit anyone, it should be Duke (*ducks*).

I’ve been on the Bob Foster train and wondering why he hasn’t gotten more run lately. I realize some of that was due to injury, some to matchups. I realize he can’t call his own plays, but I’m starting to think he might just be mediocre. Hard to say because I pin most of this loss on coaching. McD has these games, at least a couple each year, where he’s totally outclassed. I really like the guy, but that’s becoming a concerning trend.

I’d be shocked if they ever moved Edmunds to OLB. Not saying they shouldn’t, but McD is incredibly stubborn. He values guys that do it “the right way”. I’m not saying it’s the best option, but I might try the following: 1. bring big vin up from the PS and cut Peko. 2. put Corey Thompson at MLB and move Tremaine to OLB. Milano, Thompson, and Edmunds are our best LBs. 3. move Lorenzo to defensive end more frequently to get Murphy out of there (more frequently). 4. give shaq a few more looks inside at DT. I like his aggression. 2 and 3 will never happen.

No ish Josh. You’ve said this enough. Eventually, it’d be nice to see it.

I haven’t been quick to throw in with the Star is awful crowd, but the dude has been invisible this year. Except when he’s being guided away from the play. I’m not real sure about the earlier games (wasn’t paying attention), but the guy has been pretty awful at least the last two games.

Of course. But if we’d have won we make up ground on the cheats. But of course...buffalo can’t do their part. Happens every year.

Watch the Browns win today too. Wouldn’t that just be salt in the wound.

Peko is not the answer. I’d like to get a look at Big Vinny on the practice squad. Supposedly his strength is against the run. Hated the the Peko call up at the time and I hate it now.

What do we do on run D? We don’t get that solved this will unravel quickly.

Allen has been terrible protecting the football with people around him this year.

So...when do we trash Orlando Scandrick for getting these guys amped up. ?

Time for Daboll to take that Skins head coaching job.

They’ve got to be averaging 5-6 yards per carry. Our defensive line is invisible.

Looks so unathletic.

The defense is awful today. Totally let the team down today.

Daboll has been schooled today. All day. Frazier too for that matter.

We’ve been exposed on Run D. Peko is not the answer. I’d like to get a look at the big fella sitting on practice squad. Have to get that fixed ASAP.

Whelp. Not looking good.

Bullied in our own house. Way to go D.
