says he is letting injured players ease back into the workload while preparing them for the season. says team must be multfaceted and use different fronts. says with these guys our defense will be very versatile and can run.

Tolbert is basically going to be an H-Back in this offense.

when we signed tolbert i thought he was insurance in case we lose stewart after this season, but the more i hear about his versatility & his ability to play special teams make me think he might be the best free agent siging we've had in a long time

On the topic of the NFL Network but related to the Carolina Panthers:

My wife and I just got home and happened to turn on the TV only to find NFL Network on and notice the topic at that moment was "What team should move to L.A.?" and I only caught bits and pieces but they were talking about Carolina and Cam Newton with that screen caption. Were they actually suggesting that the Panthers should move to L.A? If so, are they that brainless? I mean, we are not the Jags, we actually have fan support.

      Canes vs Bruins 7pm Halloween Edition!

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      As I said less than 10 minutes into the game, Boston looks nothing like we're used to seeing. Regardless, any curb-stomping of the Bruins is welcome.  The scorers all got the glory tonight, but all 6 D-men had excellent games. Across the board- Gost, Orlov, Chatty, Walker and, of course, Slavin & Burns.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      I just tried a few mock draft simulators and this is the only way lol. Nothing else makes sense.

      No, biggest weakness is pass rush, but I don't think there is a blue chip can't miss DE prospect to take at #1 this year, same as with QB.  But beyond that, moving forward, yea WR is a pretty damn big weakness. We have 1 game this season over 224 yards passing and just traded away our best WR (who wasn't going to re-sign here anyways).  That WR no longer on the team was also the only player we've had this year who had over 78 yards receiving in a game.  So again, yea, WR is one of our biggest weaknesses even right now, let alone moving into the future. As I just said in my other post, I love Legette, but he's not going to be a Top 5-10 WR type of guy, Top 15-20 I can see, I think he can be a good #1 WR or an elite #2. After that, what do we have for the future?  Thielen isn't part of it, sure as hell isn't going to be Mingo, and as much as we all like Coker, in no world is Coker as our #2 to Legette as the #1 going be considered as "having weapons" at WR, even with Brooks and Sanders. But put someone like T-Mac into that group, who I genuinely think is going to be a Top 5 WR in this league for a long time, and it changes things.  A Top 5 WR with Legette/Coker as the 2/3, along with Brooks and Sanders, has the potential to be one of the best set of offensive weapons in the league if they reach their potential.
