Yeah, it was pretty damn funny since it was preseason but damn if it wouldn't have been infuriating in a regular season game.

 

Considering it would be our starters  of course we all would be pissed.  These guys are fighting for a roster spot so it means nothing about the team as a whole.   I assumed most people that follow football would know that.

Scott is a potential starter and he was probably the worst offender. So bad he got yanked for Greg Little.

Scott is a backup and until proven otherwise that's all he will be.  Obviously he didn't get off to a good start.

If he doesn't get his poo together he won't make the team.

If Erving stays banged up and they don't move Moton to LT, he was in the driver's seat. Erving staying healthy seems about as likely as Denzel Perryman staying healthy. Our MASH unit FA signings are going predictably so far.

I'm not going to worry about what if's.  There's just too many variables to consider.  The fact that they are trying to cover as many of those "what if" as the can gives me some hope there's a plan at least.

      D. Morgan on T-Mac: “I made the decision pretty early [January]

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I wrote a long dissertation on who they would pick, breaking down the draft by needs and player availability and concluded (at that time) that we would go WR in the first.  Being right is humbling and dignifying.  I predicted that the Panthers would draft Matthew Golden.

      First of all, DJ had 788 yards as a rookie And second, KB was playing with Cam the year before he won MVP, and while Olsen had the exact same 1,008 yards as KB that year, next on the list was Cotchery with 580 and then 4th was Philly Brown with 296. KB had 73 receptions on 146 targets that year, THAT'S why he had 1k+ yards, not because he was some dominant WR, there were no other WR options on that team at all. If you say Thielen and Olsen are somewhat equal, particularly in role and ability, then XL/Coker >>>>>> Cotchery/Brown. Yes, T-Mac very well could get there, and this isn't me hedging on the ability of my guy.  It's that we should in theory have a lot of good receiving options and in his rookie year, I can see how T-Mac can have a good season but still not get to 1k this year because of it. In year 2 when we lose Thielen and he has that year under his belt, then yea, I'll say right now, I'm expecting a 1,200 yard season at minimum from him in 2026.  But I just think expecting 1k this first year given the weapons we have and being a run first offense, isn't fair to T-Mac. Again, just look at MHJ for what an uber talented rookie is likely to do when there is another legit receiving option there.  Nabers and BTJ were the only games in town for them last year, Puka the year before had a lot of time as the only option there while Kupp was hurt. If that happens to us next year with Thielen/XL/Coker, then yea, I'll then say T-Mac should get that 1k mark, but I'm not going to make my expectations based on expecting injuries.
