t96

yeah I haven't dug in too deep but it looks that way to me too. He's not bad against the easier low and medium danger chances, but he does about what is expected. He's way better than expected against the high danger chances, in fact he's significantly better against high danger chances than any other goalie in the league and it's not even remotely close. That's why I think he will still improve a ton as he settles in and gets more comfortable playing in North America and just settling into the league -- you'll see those improvements in the low/medium danger chances save%.

with QBs the in between is pretty much worse than "sucks ass"

I agree but the main reasons are Corbett and Icky... Boze has been great and we should lock him up as this group has great chemistry and talent but Elf was also playing well with this group. Center is usually the least important position to have a great player at on OL, you need an adequate center as a bad one can be disastrous but the difference between average C and elite C is much less significant than between average G/T and elite G/T.

Some advanced stats https://www.moneypuck.com/goalies.htm In Goals Saved Above Expected per 60 (5+ games), a very legitimate measure of how well a goalie is playing taking into account the team defense in front of him, Pyotr is #2 behind only Ilya Sorokin (a Vezina favorite for best goalie in the league). I couldn't be more excited about this kid, his play is even better than his raw numbers which are solid as is. Such a stud. Small sample size so far but I think he'll keep it up and even get better as he gets more comfortable facing NHL shooters.

I liked him before he sucked this season. He’s a Pats fan too so fug him, let him bust somewhere else

I mean dude look at that injury list and our roster for last night's game lol. I think we're fully embracing the tank at this point, which is the right call. Come back next year healthy with Miles back and hopefully Wemby but if not him another top pick to add to the group. Develop the young guys this year.

Lamar is looking for a fully guaranteed contract like Watson got. If it's truly fully guaranteed there's not a lot more to it than total $ and years on the deal. Others have negotiated their own contracts in the past. I completely agree he should have some help from contract lawyer(s) and/or an agent but I also kinda get not wanting to give the agent their 5% or whatever the going rate is.

Agreed and a healthy Star with Hardy in 2014 may get us past the Seahawks and to the SB too honestly

FWIW we are winless on the road (only team in the NFL). I don't see us winning any of these 3 road games to close out the season either.

Picking 6 right now. Bears, Rams, Steelers, Broncos all ahead of us but would drop below us with 1 more win than us the rest of the year. Texans aren't dropping out of 1st overall. Rams and Broncos really have zero incentive to lose games as they traded away their picks so despite how bad they've been I still think they can 1 or 2 more down the stretch. Steelers suck but they have some winnable games on there, including our game. Bears have Packers and Lions but don't see any other winnable games on their schedule. Of course if we win more meaningless games we'll drop, but if we don't win any more games I see us still picking top 2-3.

Went dirt biking and shot some sporting clays all day, just tuning in now… what’d I miss? Also first time I’ve intentionally skipped watching the Panthers on Sunday, thanks Tepper. But it was much more enjoyable than watching this crappy team ruin the tank when the season is already lost.

Well at least he has proven himself as a college coach

We should interview him. But we shouldn’t focus or hone in on him.

Not really as simple as this. The Falcons had one of the luckiest paths to the SB I've ever seen; got a bye with just 11 wins, had easy opponents. Also, Shanahan was really the reason for their success, their D was only good because of an insane number of takeaways which wasn't sustainable. Quinn is not SB winning HC material. Wilks isn't either in my opinion but I actually would like him more than Quinn if we had to pick between the 2. Agree though I don't want either. Grab the Eagles OC, Harbaugh or Payton.

Which in turn does lead to good things for the Panthers. This is an important game for us to lose, along with the Steelers game. Lions should beat us.

No chance this dude is literally worse than Sam and Baker

we could bring him back easily

fug it just roll with Eason I never want to see Baker or Sam play for us again. Eason should guarantee the tank train rolls on for the next 6 games.

Mahomes’ peak is already the best in NFL history among QBs, I truly believe that. We’ll see about his longevity but this dude is just absurd. He has no wide receivers and still dominates.

2nd overall pick baby!

Please let us never see Baker at QB for this team again. No reason to play him and a ton of reason not to (pick going to Browns based on snaps played).

These refs are fuging beyond incompetent. Blow it dead and then change their mind without the Ravens needing to challenge? And on that earlier non-challenge they should not have given the Ravens' their challenge back. That's Harbaugh's fault for not knowing what you can and can't challenge. fuging stupid

and they've scored 3 points, lol. Mac Jones sucks

That is a trash call, clearly should’ve been roughing

Man, Miles is gonna wind up playing somewhere and probably doing very well. It'd be a mistake competitively to just let him go. If we can try to trade him for something great but you can't just get rid of him for nothing. Too big of a setback on the court when we have the ability to keep him. Especially when we'll likely be able to keep him at least for a few years at a HUGE discount compared to what his play on the court deserves.
