Why was Kalil even active?

It seemed obvious he wasn’t going to play this week, especially when Rivera basically flat out said during the week he wouldn’t play. We had Larsen and Van Roten active. Would’ve been better off having Armah active over Kalil to provide a boost to our offense, even if just because of his energy, toughness and demeanor on the field.

    My guess? Matt practiced this week, he traveled with the team, it was probably a game time decision. It just didn't work out. Although, it could mean he is close to coming back. 

 

   As for Armageddon. Some one posted the fact that when he plays, we are only averaging 3.7 ypc. So I don't believe his contributions are a big a deal as what was thought. 

 

    Been trying to think of who I would have activated had Matt not been active. I just can't think of anyone. So I guess, to me. This isn't a big deal.

You would have thought that the coaching staff would have realized after the last 2 games, that having Armah in as FB is a big boost for our run game.  Kalil doesnt make much sense and neither does Fozzy.  

 

    Someone posted the stat earlier, that we are only averaging 3.7 ypc with Armah. So he seems to not be making the difference folks are wanting to credit him with.

 

    Would have to think they were hoping Matt would be able to go. He is obviously getting close.

other than the 40 yard break out by CMC, what did our RBs average yesterday?

    You can't just wipe out his 40 yarder. That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works. lol

 

    That said. I don't know. No a whole lot is my guess.

    I don't think it was much worse. Something like 3.1, or somewhere in there. Slightly over 3 anyway. He made a difference. Just not enough to call it an qualified success.

Before week 12 , the team is averaging 3.9 yards per carry . Both McCaffrey and Stew averaging below 4 ypc is bad. Cam and all of the end arounds we did skewing the ypc pretty bad too.

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
