The only way we win against NO, in NO, is if they tank.  With that said, there is no way Wilks comes back next year.  Tepper don't give a crap about what they (the players) think.  Wilks' only shot was a deep playoff run.

Tepper should have stayed with Rhule. Wilks taking over gave the team enough mojo to win a few games knocking us out of a top 3 pick. Granted I couldn’t stand Rhule but the roadmap was set.

Yeah sure hope all those that wanted to win are happy with themselves. All we did was hurt our draft position when the smarter ones knew what was up.

These people will be the first ones saying trade up for a QB now.

In terms of a top 3 pick, if we could use it to trade back, I would see it as more valuable.  I thought this year would be a great QB class, but not so much now.  I'm not a believer in CJ Stroud, and the Alabama QB is too small.  Overall, I'm good with wherever we end up. (late top 10 or top 15).  Where we really screwed up was not trading away Brian Burns.

Should be interesting to see how we rebound. The mark of a good head coach is getting the best out of his players and getting them to rebound back from a loss rather than start a losing streak.

Why is it important to the players to win next week? Do you want to go out a loser or a winner? I know that ending your season with a loss leaves a bad taste in your mouth in the offseason versus going out on a good note.

Plus it is the Saints. We need to beat them because we don't like them.....

Have you noticed many of the posters here's remarks regarding this next game?

They're more concerned with Draft position (as if we're going to win the offseason or something) than anything else.

If they could, they would have the Panthers just forfeit the game and move right on into the offseason without losing draft position.

 

Of course that's not going to happen and I can safely say the team will 100% next week.

I mean....Sam himself is basically auditioning for a job (he's made a great accounting of himself thus far) either with us or another team so I wouldn't be shocked to see him play well next game.

That is a good point his passer rating since starting is averaging 104. If we don't want him he has earned a spot on someone's roster heading into the offseason.

Considering how there are many teams out there that are QB-starved, he may turn out to be the most sought-after QB in the Free Agent market.    Go figure.  lol

      DONOVAN EZEIRUAKU at 8?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      While we're talking a fresh prospect that I happen to be a fan of, might as well get on a soapbox: Point 1 - He is not undersized by any means, his length is far above the mean His wingspan is in like the 85th percentile. An interesting note - his wingspan is 5 inches over Khalil Mack, 2 inches over Will Anderson's.  Only 1/2 inch away from the no-production yet size hyped 6'5 267 Shemar Stewart's. For comp - Ez's is around 83", arm length 34".  For NFL comp, the mean for wingspan is 80" and arms 33.5" at for starting EDGE defenders.  So it's not just my isolated comparisons. Point 2 - He isn't just a flashy "pass rush specialist" His film (and testing) shows elite quickness, hand work, and ability to play with the heads of OTs that normal prospects don't grasp. (see my prior post) Testing wise, one of the fastest 3-cones and short shuttles for an edge in years.  Fastest this year for both -- and those two drills are the ones teams look at for pass rushers, usually very indicative of success.  His quickness is off the charts. He's a guy that played well, showed well to those casually watching and those film-studying.  Then he goes out and tests well to back it up.  Apparently interviews super well.  So, I think it's all about his capacity/potential as a run defender.  That's really what it comes down to.  Can he be a 3-down guy or is he a specialist?  I see a 3-downer, his run defense is better than given credit for. A breakdown Ez vs. the NFL mean Arm Length: 34" vs. 33.5" (over) Wingspan: 83" vs. 80" (over) 3-Cone: 6.94 sec vs. 7.23 (WELL over, 95 percentile) Short Shuttle: 4.19 vs. 4.424 (over) Height: 6'2 1/2 vs. 6'3 (slight under) People look at the height a smidge under 6'3 and take that without considering the rest.   I think with Ez, it all comes down to what teams think his run defense upside is.  All it takes is one team - if they think he can become more that a passing down guy, then he could go high.  But if guys like Nik Bonitto and Haason Reddick can turn into these all-arounders, I don't see why this kid can't either who has higher pedigree and better measurables. Now, I prefer Graham, Walker inside, Will Johnson, Barron, and some others over him, but once we're in this tier outside of the top guys, I find the argument way more compelling for Ez over a Mykel Williams or Shemar Stewart.

      Well if we’re bringing this guy with character issues in for a visit why not consider Mike Green at 8!?
