Damn Skippy

Ikr? I made the mistake of talking up Christiansen this week, so his injury is obviously on me. But I got to ask, is Michael freaking Jordan really the best replacement? I would have assumed Mays or erving.

God I hope Carolina rests their starters.

I agree though. Christensen overachieved at a new position.

They have been really good. Really really good. But they're not exactly "unheralded", they've gotten a lot of attention (for Carolina).The only one that may be unheralded would be Christensen, and he's done a hellova job at LG.

I'm going to move wide receiver to the end of that list. DJ is great, and I think Marshall is coming into his own. Shi it's pretty good and Shenault is a gadget guy. We could definitely use a couple of upgrades, but I don't think it says needy as the other positions you named

I agree with you, if Horn or even Jackson are available for this game, we win easily. Take away those three long touchdowns for Evans and we owned them. And that's with Darnald, who is a backup QB / game manager.

The only outrageously bad call by the refs that stood out to me was on the last kickoff where they backed us up even though it was obvious that there were multiple fouls on the bucs. I think part of Brady looking almost human this year, despite being a damned good quarterback, one of the best ever, is that he's not getting a roughing to pass or call every time someone comes close to him. BTW, I think our cornerbacks loses the game even if the refs hadn't tried to seal the deal there at the end.

I haven't watched any college ball and don't dig into the draft until the season is over, which I guess it is now. So I don't know actual players yet but we need help at cb, lb, and de more than quarterback at this point. Especially if we keep Wilkes as HC. He's a strong defense/good enough offense kind of coach like we've always had. BTW... I still think tremble can be a pass catching te.

You're right. And unfortunately, there aren't many nose guards like that.

I appreciate your support for our guy, you're a good fan. But... CJ is decent backup at best. He's been a liability all year, and his entire career. I don't even hate the trade, it was a Gamble on a former first rounder. But he hasn't shown me anything that makes me think he should be a starter in the NFL.

I had to poo you overall, but you are dead ass correct about this statement. Why the fug did Norman ride the pine when Evans was making everyone else his bitch? He couldn't have done any worse.

Henderson is decent depth, Jackson is good but too small to take the daily beating you get in the NFL, and Horn is elite but apparently fragile. At this point, I want us to go defensive end and CB with her first two picks. Donald looks to be a decent game manager if we keep the line elite and I still believe in Corral. If I'm wrong, 2024 QB class looks better than 2023.

at this point, I'd rather see what corral has. We desperately need a pass rusher, and a cornerback. Henderson should not be starting, and Taylor should not be on the team.

I miss Horn

Big loss. The guy was playing lights out. Entering Week 16, he had allowed the fewest receptions (23), the fewest receiving yards (216) and the lowest passer rating (39.4) amongst all starting corners.

As long as he can keep this stat up, I'm a fan.

No need to read the article, the title says it all!

If he'd take $8M, run don't walk to sign the contract. He worked his way through a cheap rookie contract with the Ravens and signed a cheap 1 year prove it deal with us, so he is definitely looking to get paid. He's not just some bum off the street though, he's a proven, 4 year starter. $12M seems a little high though, I expect the actual number to be around $10M, maybe with some incentive, high guaranteed money thrown in to entice him.

I was there. It was pitiful. I'm not exaggerating when I say that it was 3-1 steelers fans AT LEAST. At one point a Pitt player was pumping up the crowd during a 3rd down (for us)! WTF?

I wonder how Mays will look at backup Center.

This was a humdinger for me. We make the playoffs by winning our division, but every game the 9ers win affects our draft picks. The wildcard route is so astronomical, that I had to pull for the seahawks. BTW, I still love to see CMC run, even in that ugly jersey!
