We're still top seed in the AFC

Beane will draft a linebacker in the first and give Allen another late rounders “playmaker”. We will be “fine”…


DE in the 2nd, a slow RB in the 3rd, and a raw OT in the 6th sounds about right

I was thinking they'd go for a DT again.

 

 

It’s insane. Enough is enough. We have a generational qb and stick him with JAGs outside of Diggs. It’s criminal…

Yeah…an OT that gets picked up by another team off our practice squad. Meanwhile…our 2nd round DE can’t even make the box score in year 3…

None of this has to do with the thread topic.  There are other, appropriate, threads to complain in.

 

It's like somebody posting a thread "Stadium traffic lighter then expected today", and people replying "Not as many people there because we didn't draft an o-line." and "Less reason to watch because we don't have a #2 wideout!".  Please, keep it on-topic, peeps.

So explain to me how Is leading the AFCE with 4 division games left behind the eight ball again. 

Probably because any one loss to any team at this point, including the NFC's 6-2 Vikings next week, puts us in 3rd place in our division? It's not that hard man. We have completely squandered any margin for error we had at this point

I'll feel a lot better about us going on a run to lock up the #1 seed if the following things happen, in order of importance:

 

1) Get Tre White back in the lineup. We cannot run the defense we want without our #1 CB on an island.

 

2) Sign OBJ. I don't care if we have to restructure contracts and sacrifice the future a bit. We need a true all around #2 WR. Get him here and ramp him up to hopefully be fully integrated into the offense by December.

 

3) Defense needs to get healthy. We're already undermanned without Hyde, losing Milano and Poyer and Rousseau is too much attrition to make up for when our offense has an off day.

 

4) Get Hines acclimated and start punishing defenses for backing off. We started doing this with Cook more today and it was working. Hines has elite speed so that brings another plus factor to that part of our offense.

 

If we aren't able to make some of those changes fast then the #1 seed, possibly even the division, will slip away from us.

We're 0 and 2 in the division.  I don't like that even if we are still the to seed in the AFC.  

It wouldn't matter as much if our division was sub par. But every team in it currently has a winning record. So yes, you are correct and it does absolutely matter

This thread was only to point out where we stand right now.  I've seen some people talk like we lost homefield today and wanted to set the record straight.  Think of it as a PSA.  This isn't the thread to discuss how they played today, or concerns going forward.  Already another thread for that.

So the thread is just to put out a statement...and then no replies?
