Lol, I don't care what DC we get, he's not magically going to make the JAGs we have on defense magically become the Texans/Seahawks D unless we somehow draft / sign a lot of talent

Can't remember the last time we had a decent coverage safety. Maybe Kurt Coleman. I think overall Nick Scott played pretty solid the back half of the season. But he definitely got exposed and picked on in the Rams game. Rams also knew that Cover 3 is weak against the seams and targeted that area a lot. Evero needs to mix in some Cover 4 with his zone (especially when it's 3rd and long). That will help take away the seams and should only allow short routes to be open (if everybody is in their zone). Getting linebackers and safeties that can actually cover some would also help him to run some man defense (if he ever plans to).

NFL has been setting up the Josh Allen super bowl narrative for a while. It will either be bills Rams or bills Seahawks in the super bowl.

Or in the Saint's case (when they had Brees) - Dead cap and cap space don't exist...

Good, now let the falcons hire some turd similar to Raheem Morris

I think it was one of his better games this year. The problem with Bryce isn't his performance in the playoff game, it's the many other games during the regular season that he looked embarrassingly bad...

That will be a very pricy contract. Would love to have him, but can't have more money tied up in our oline than our entire defense

The Steelers without Roethlisberger have also been pretty ass talent-wise. Guy has somehow continued to make the playoffs with the likes of tiny hands Pickett, Rudolph, Russ, washed up Rodgers, and whoever else I forgot. What hurt Tomlin most is that his team always going 8-8/9-8 has meant they never got a top 10 pick

I remember hearing rumors that Tepper was one of the guys for the Steelers brass that hated Tomlin the most and wanted him fired. I highly doubt we hire Tomlin (as long as Tepper is our owner).

Tough to let Mays walk, especially if we don't resign Corbett. Tough to just throw a day 3 C out there week 1 and expect our oline to not fall apart... Resign: 1 year deals: Christensen, JJ, Martin, Evans, Scott, Curhan, Yosh, Simmons, Cherelus, Incoom. JJ, Martin, Evans, Simmons, and Incoom for special teams purposes. 2 year deal for Mays - Doubt Mays takes a 1 year deal. I definitely see a few teams being interested in him. 2 year deal for Tremayne - good #4 receiver (should be #3 ahead of XL imo) 2 year deal for Coker

Yeah, I liked what Robertson had on tape last season & earlier this year and was one of the QBs I most wanted us to draft day 3. But he sure as hell fell off a cliff the last half of the season and seemed like his fundamentals broke down

Cool, so you are saying we might get 1 half of football out of him next year before he blows his knee again?

So you are saying to trust the Matt Rhule 7 year plan with Bryce?

Really? He seems like the opposite of Alex Smith... Bad enough to keep you out of the playoffs, but when you do make it, he plays one of his better games and might steal a win for you

I saw plenty of Princely this year not rushing his gap or keeping contain and teams targeting him to run at. Scourton is more of a 3 down lineman, Princely is a Brian Burns type of edge that can only rush the passer. Princely is raw and needs time to develop, but he also needs to shut his mouth.

Good news for us is that we pretty much need every position on defense... There should be a good player available for us at 19

Guy has the brain of JaMarcus Russell. I'll pass since I don't think that's something that gets fixed in the NFL

Horn needs to learn how to tackle instead of just randomly diving head first at people and not wrapping up 90% of the time he tries to tackle somebody... The concussion he got was more Cherelus' fault, but tackling recklessly like he does will continue to put him at risk for concussions

Wonder how much money Icky lost off this injury. Sucks because it didn't even look bad when the injury happened. Would be nice if he came recovered well and somehow could get a multiyear dear with him that is much cheaper than what he would have gotten pre-injury

Yes, but outside of Chubb with Denver and Burns (lol) with us, he hasn't had good pass rushers. He, like many DCs, tends to value limiting big plays and making a team string together 10-15 plays to score a TD. Outside of DB and Scourton, we are just trotting out JAGs with zilcho pass rush skills. Whether we blitzed or rushed 4, the QB usually had plenty of time. Even in the Rams game when Stafford struggled to throw completions against the blitz, he still had 5-7 seconds to throw the ball and just had bad throws. We also lucked out with Puka dropping that easy TD before the half when we blitzed also.

This right here... If DB or Nick says it, fine. A guy that looks completely lost on the field probably should shut his mouth and learn some pass rushing techniques and how to play his gap assignment

Of all people, Princely probably shouldn't be talking... He has raw talent and potential, but he was out there screwing up a lot on the field this year

I'll be shocked if Brooks makes it two games before having another season ending injury...

Sucks because I think he played good for us (obviously great in the dolphins and cowboys games). But we were never going to give him anything beyond a one-year deal with the contract we gave Chuba. Still don't understand why we pretty much stopped running the ball off tackle the entire rest of the year after like week 12... I was pissed we didn't do it one time against the Bucs week 18 when the week prior the dolphins did it many times and ran it all over the Bucs D
