Chuba to IR

I’m ok with it just be competitive 

Honestly, I am not sure that is likely to happen minus Chuba. I suspect the coaching staff will compensate by going hardcore passing(60+%) over these last two contests and that is really not our identity as a team yet. IMO.

I hope we at least see them battle like they did against Dallas versus some of the early season stompings. 

I also hope we don't kill all Bryce's momentum in these last two games.

I won't lie, very nervous about these last two games now.

Speaking of draft position, this was curious to me--Any background information that would justify a 4-point swing in the line (making New Orleans the home dog against the 3-win Raiders)?

My guess would be whether or not Kamara plays, they are like an entirely different team without him

It's not all on Bryce in that regard. When our coaching staff goes heavy passing attack, across Dalton and Bryce, it is rarely a recipe for success. We just don't have the personnel for it. 

Our pass catchers lack elite talent and our OL is solid in pass blocking but dominant in run blocking. Without a credible run threat, the whole offense is substantially less capable.

We just have to hope Boone and Blackshear can hit these holes that OL is making enough to keep the offensive playcallers from utterly abandoning the run or starting to get too gimmicky with the playcalling to compensate.

I just saw him being listed as questionable as of Friday. I(and I guess a lot of people) must have missed that. Damn.

Yeah he has been listed as questionable since Tuesday or Wednesday if I remember correctly. This game will get ugly by the 2nd quarter if we have no run game at all.

I guess he must have gotten banged up against Arizona. Or these just could be nagging injuries that they finally said "fug it" to.

I certainly hope so. We're going to find out. This to me is the biggest test of the season for Bryce. He doesn't even need to win. But we need to look competent and at least vaguely formidable. He's a first overall pick.

He came up limping at one point during the game but I cannot remember the exact play. He seemed to have shook it off and finished the game. I guess it caught up with him or as you say it's probably just shutting him down to avoid making it worse.

    • I see it this way--what if you play Hubbard and he blows a knee?  I would not be surprised to see Horn benched.  I would not be surprised to see veterans like Jewell, Wonnum, Clowney, and maybe even Bryce benched at some point to prevent some injury that might impact the offseason/camp etc.  In addition, it would assure a top 6 or so pick.  In addition, you get to see how players like Plummer and a few others look when the bullets are real (unlike in preseason.)  I realize that some of you think this is lunacy, but it happens and it is smart, actually.  I think you try to win, you just try to win with developmental players while protecting your core for 2025.
    • Also, look up the number of times Jake and Cam had the 32nd-ranked defense. Young's ceiling is below theirs, no doubt at all (I'd like a QB in this draft personally and not in the 6th-7th round) but those teams had strong defenses and weapons like Steve Smith and Muhsin Muhammad or Steve Smith, Greg Olsen and Jeremy Shockey (who'd probably trump Thielen now).
    • This is truly one of the most retarded takes I've ever seen. Young has underachieved (other than the last couple months) but you don't even look at the numbers when you throw out crap like this. Josh Rosen's best QB rating ever was 88.9 in a 30-10 loss. Young's surpassed that twice in the last month. Hell, Rosen's career QB rating is low 60s -- a hell of a lot lower than Young's mid-70s rating. Now, Young will play like crap the last two games in large part because he has no weapons, no run game, absolutely no defense and a crap OL, but he'll be expected to be 1984 Dan Marino by the people who consider him 2019 Josh Rosen. Makes no sense. Kinda like those comparisons.
