Lewis will shine today 

Hope it’s not Lewis. Put bishop and Jackson out there

Doesn’t matter how average Hamlin and Rapp are. They’ve been in there getting reps all year in the scheme. The backups haven’t. It’s going to be very tough for them. Hopefully we can grab a turnover or two.

The pass rush will need to clock in today

I’m quite worried that Ingram is a headline.

There better not even be a 1% chance that a 36 year old washed up Kareem Jackson sees the field. I never for one second even considered it as a possibility…I really hope McDermott isn’t that dumb

Is our game on cbs or fox ?

I think Rapp is having a pretty good year 

He's been ok. But nothing spectacular that shouldn't be replaceable.

Considering he's one of only 3 Safety's active - I don't see how it's possible he won't see the field at least a little bit. Cole Bishop and Cam Lewis probably aren't both going to play 100% of the snaps on Defense and Special Teams.

Kareem Jackson is a headhunter and he's been stuck on the couch for months. If I was a Detroit fan I'd be a bit scared about injury.

agreed. Dude is itching for another big fine!

Might be pedantic but I think we’ve gotten more value than his contract by a pretty large amount. 

 

He’s getting (cap number) $1.6M (2024), $2.3M, and $2.575 this year and the next 2. He’s well out playing his contract. But there’s no real reason to move on, and upgrading will cost us at least 2x what we’re paying now.

if Ingram sucks today, I hope McDermott is pressed hard about it in the post game. He deserves every bit of the criticism. Obviously, I hope I’m completely wrong, but as of right now it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense

Agreed. I'm just saying I don't think we should see a huge drop off. Bishop is supposed to be good. He was a 2nd round pick. He's had plenty of time to learn the defense. Will be interesting to see how he does

Nothing about Elam's history here with McD suggests he gets the edge over anybody, good game or not.

Well, we might see the guys I peg as real athletes, elam and bishop starting today.  I hope they make some BIG strides towards fulfilling their potential today, cuz boy howdy are we gonna need it.

The Elam thing is so weird. I don’t get it. He’s played between “OK/Meh/Fine” and “Pretty Well” since being drafted. This camp he was reported to be playing as well as anybody.

 

I’m really high on Ingram and fairly low on Lewis, but Elam not getting the nod would be nutty to me.

Ref crew today is Adrian Hill's gang, they had the Hail Mary game at the Jets.

You're high in Ingram?  I'm meh on him, which is actually kinda positive for a back up corner.

 

I know it's hack at this point, but he shows good space and some skills, so I'd kinda like to see him at FS and bishop at SS, and elam at corner.

 

They are backups for a reason, but every one of them is a better athlete than the guy they would be replacing today

Mahomes hurt!
