No_Matter_What

Anybody has an idea why he wasn't on the field at least some drives instead of Dane (or even White, for that matter)? Seems like a mystery to me.

Groot was an amazing pick. It's great to see him be this good in his 2nd year already. Epenesa quietly having 5.5 sacks despite limited playing time. He could have some more if he learned how to tackle though. Lawson was great FA signing. Hopefully he stays for next year under same conditions lol.

People will complain a lot but we keep winning. I don't care how it's done. And Jets are a good team.

Rousseau + whole front 7 Allen, Knox Bass

shoulda apply for OC job

Genius one. Josh needs to throw it little better and the game is over.

I think its White/Jackson only. And like I said it is really hard to understand from my armchair. Hard to believe Elam wouldn't be better.

I find it interesting that nobody complains that we don't run when passing play works

I have hard time believing that it wouldn't be better to play Elam instead of Dane.

I wasn't paying attention... was Elam playing opposite of White or was it all Jackson?

How many variations of hurdling this guys knows lol

Rams were 8-4 at this stage last year and were just coming from a 3 game losing streak. I wonder how they won the whole thing.

Not true. This is just you and others refusing to understand that even SB winners do not steamroll all opponents and do not play perfect game each week.

Lol Bills fans in GTD never dissappoint when things don't go well for the Bills for a while.

This is the time when elevations are announced, right?

Ok thanks haven't noticed. It sucks that Zimmer went to Miami. It should've been him.

Little offtopic, but look what I found when browsing for some mocks WalterFootbal.com

I think we've seen these reports before and they never materialized. I expect the same this year.

I appreciate the effort but you are just wrong. He was playing very good overall, but the point is that we got him to close games in PO, esp. against Chiefs. We played them already and he delivered. He stopped or was major reason we stopped at least 3 Chiefs drives in the 2nd half, including the last one. He'll be missed big time. Thing is that it doesn't help to replace Miller. If Rousseau plays great, then fine, we have one great DE. But if Miller was on the field, we would have two.

Yeah tankathon.com has us taking RB Jahmyr Gibbs for over a month now, maybe even two. Must be some kind of obsession. I am hoping for some kind of OL/WR/defense/OL combination early rounds.

Didn't see it posted anywhere and it probably doesn't deserve its own thread, but Sportrac has C.J. Brewer on our active 53-man roster.

Interesting.

Well put, mostly agree. Couple of notes only. No way that Beane keeps Hines under his current contract, so I would almost say that we have 34 players under contract with -$5M cap space. He either takes much less or is gone. I mention him since his case is really obvious, unlike others (high cap hit + no guaranteed money). I also hope/believe that Beane won't do all those restructures, since that would be the Saints way. Majority yes, we won't make it without it, but not all. That's what makes it even more tough. Let's hope cap will be closer to $225M. Agreed that we can't afford to tag Edmunds and keep him. It will be a lot of "fun". Anyway, like you said, let's not hijack this. Just good to have perspective when talking about Edmunds.

I know it sounds bizzare but my bold pick is that Commanders could make it. 49ers just lost Jimmy, I don't believe Hurts can handle being top favorite yet, Cousins won't string 3 good games, Dallas finds a way to lose, Brady is washed (and yes I saw MNF, it won't be enough to play good last two drives in the PO). Commanders have good defense with Young coming back, great WR and Heinecke has some balls. If he gets hot and lucky in PO I can see them pulling it off. Only to get killed by the Bills of course:)

I disagree. I don't know about other people but I am not forgetting cap going up ($220M for sure, $230M might be just your and mine dream). But the thing is that we have already calculated with that and spent that money. We are paying top QB, CB, WR, DE, LT, LB, C, S, NCB. We have 9 guys over $10M and two more over $8,5M. And yes I do know that you can restructure and make other things to work with cap, but there are limitations. So it's not like cap is $230M hooray suddenly we have a lot of space. We have used it already. Btw I do think we can make both Oliver and Edmunds work but it will be very complicated and require some other tough decisions. Like letting not only Poyer but also Taron Johnson go after this season.
