You're right, of course.  I'm just displaying my anxieties.

this post was meant to be a reply to Happy post re Kincaid going to give hell. 
 

I think this will be great for our red zone efficiency. Interestingly  enough in 2022 we were at 60 percent..(Good for ninth)  The Chiefs who led  were  about 71 percent.

 

In 2021 we led the league at around 66. I’m hoping we can get back within that range!

I know it is early yet, but LB is a pretty big concern for me.  I don’t know that there is any good option as a starting LB at the NFL level among Dodson, Bernard , Klein and Spector.

 

I am also somewhat disappointed that Elam hasn’t yet claimed the top CB spot opposite White.  The competition that he must beat out in Jackson and Benford were both late round draftees for a reason and it doesn’t look good that Elam isn’t clearly a better player than either of them.  Now, I’m not saying that Elam should get the job if he doesn’t win it, but it would be another early round draft miss if he doesn’t.

big gripe of mine with McD. i dont think u hand the #2 spot to him, but Danes a vet at this point. we invested heavily in a guy with elite traits, get him the freaking reps and develop him!!

Especially since we have evidence of Elam performing in the biggest moments.  

 

Two playoff games.  He stepped up and played well in both.

This is unfortunately becoming a theme. Davis can't hold onto the ball if he's contested at all.

 

The good news is that unlike last training camp, Davis is experiencing this now.  So hopefully he and his coaches/trainers can work to remedy.

Taron is lucky that’s Josh if this was Bengals camp with how fragile Burrow is he’d be unemployed right now 

 

I don't think you see the Bengals practicing "Philly Special" on the first day of pads with Burrow

Well, OK.  But then when Josh runs or catches for-real and lets go for a drop or fumble, will you be in the crowd complaining about his fumbling tendencies?

 

If he's gonna play it, he's gotta practice it

Doesn’t show a lot of thinking on behalf of the OC, silly azs play call, to much potential to get your Franchise in a word of hurt, such a Billsy thing to do,  glad it ended up being no big deal,  Don’t do it again! 😁

so defense should be open to hit Allen so he learns to not fumble? lol  what are we even talking about here???

Taron laid a hit on Josh as he was catching the ball.  yes if josh not being hit in practice leads to him dropping a pass during a game, ill be fine with it

I’m not sure how it’s possible. I have read many times on here that Beane cannot draft.

I'd be fine with them not practicing it, taking that page out of the playbook, and lighting it on fire.

 

But if they're gonna practice it, then practice it.

This might end up being our best draft year since 2018

 

I would hope so as the drafts have been pretty poor (at least in the arly rounds)

[Beck Water]

 

So...anyone there? Was it "accidental contact" or Taron Johnson laying the lumber?
