  1. I really don't think he sandbagged here. We were never in contention, and if we were, he would have suited up more than he did his last two years here. And he's hurt because he is used and worked more than anyone at the position. Dude has more mileage on his body than just about anyone else in the league not named Derek Henry. He's broken the 400 touches threshold twice, which is a death sentence for a RB's next season, and both seasons post 400 touches he was injured, imagine that. He's an elite talent but he's overworked.
  2. I prefer the one who didn't rape and or sexually assault anyone. But I seem to be an outlier when it comes to that standard around here.
  3. I honestly don't know what to think about Eddy. I don't hate him, he's pretty stable, but he doesn't have a strong leg compared to the rest of the league. We can and have had worse as a kicker, but we have also had better. Wish we would have taken a good hard look at bates coming out of the USFL but he's with detroit now. Hopefully there's some other good kicking prospects coming out this year, or someone who is finally putting it all together and we can pick them up.
  4. His route running has improved as the year has gone on, but the gator arms show up every week. From all accounts he works his ass off, so let's hope he continues to do so this offseason to improve his hands catching.
  5. This just makes me miss the mid 2000's NFL Prime. The music, the recap, the Berman "WHOOP"...
  6. Jake pre-Tommy Jone had a damn strong arm. Super Bowl TD to Moose is a great example. After the surgery his arm wasn't the same.
  7. I was going to post teh same thing. The passing charts are completely different. Teddy is alergic to throws between 10 and 20 yards throughout his career. Bryce, even though he hasn't been great and doesn't have a strong arm, consistently tries to throw the ball between 10 and 20 yards downfield.
  8. "Our O-Line is finally good, so we should get rid of the most consistent guy we've ever had at RT and roll the dice on a rookie in the draft because it's cheaper." -Idiots Ever heard the idiom "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"? Moton is a Pro Bowl level Tackle. Extend Moton 3 years with the ability to cut bait at 2 if decline in play happens due to age. Look at drafting a tackle in the mid-rounds who is raw but has potential, and let him learn under Moton for a season or two. If he shows progress and looks like he can be the heir apparent, then move on from either Moton or Icky and have the newest guy slide in to the vacant T spot. If Icky continues to play well (And he has played very well this year, people are being chuds about him based on last year) then extend him too. You can't sit here and bitch about how "We AlWaYs GeT rId Of OuR bEsT pLaYeRs" then turn around and bitch when we extend said best players. Who gives a poo if we have a ton of money tied up in the line? That's where you should invest the team's money. O-Line makes the offense run. Hell, draft an O-Lineman every draft. You can never have too many of them.
  9. Arguably the best IDL in the game now that Donald retired.
  10. It has yet to be seen if he can do it consistently so it's perfectly reasonable to not crown the kid, but it's not unfair to call a spade is a spade, and he played great yesterday.
  11. I'm encouraged with what I am seeing. And also, I know people don't believe it, but the defense has been improved recently as well. Getting healthy has helped a ton. Don't get me wrong, they still aren't great, but they look better than the beginning of the season. Hell we had 5 sacks today, Wonnum has been a big boon to our pass rush. We held the best offensive coach of the modern era to 10 points in the second half. Small victories and all, but that showed the ability to adapt and adjust as the game goes on. It was nice to see. I'm interested to see how the defense looks once we get the best player on our team back (Brown) and use our high draft pick on an edge or interior lineman to help the pass rush.
  12. 2 of those white dots were flat out drops and not Bryce's fault - Legette deep down the left sideline and Tremble over the middle in the endzone. 50% accuracy on deep throws is not a bad game.
  13. I'm not spending $100s in this economy to watch my favorite team be sub-par. Give me the better odds to actually watch a victory unfold with a good and competitive team and I'd gladly pay for a hit of that sweet dopamine.
