Yeah, I think it makes sense to have Poyer in to set the secondary (at least at times), some of the plays I've seen leave me with the impression secondary assignments aren't being correctly set at times. McDermott's of course not going to give a decision until gametime to keep Carolina guessing. It gives us such a competitive advantage, lol. It'll be interesting to see how we do this. Don't know how much we use Hancock, but I'd rather see Poyer in with him at least to start.

https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/football/news/cowboys-kaiir-elam-demoted-to-bench-role/ He's been coming off the bench the last two games. Where are you getting he's played damn well? Special teams?

Thanks for the great writeup, totally agree with your points. Offense stagnation: against the Pats and Falcons, I feel like our O-line didn't bring their aggression, they seemed very passive and I don't know why. But Atlanta regularly brought 5 and 6 rushers, gambling our receivers couldn't get separation in time. Defensive stagnation: Our gap integrity zero-stunts mantra gives almost no creativity on our pass rush and it's painful. Undersized LB's seldom crowd and rush from the LOS. Better coaches are now planning and taking advantage of It. It was painfully clear in Atlanta that our secondary is not communicating and setting assignments properly. Sideline pass to Robinson late 4Q, Tre had zone coverage but inexplicably peeled off to cover the middle leaving Robinson wide open. Bottom line, better coaches have figured us out. It's adapt and be dynamic or die time for our coaches, especially on D. Great point about Josh, I don't agree that his fire is gone, just that he's going to be more judicious with it. I don't agree that his career is drawing to a close, but agree that he's tired of always wearing the superman cape to keep this team afloat. We'll see what that means. More welcome (IMO) pressure on this FO.

Kelvin Sheppard the D coordinator!

Right after the third time or so you've had sex, let it rip, pull the covers over her and ask if it smells. Great "is this built to last?" test.

Yeah, he's had 3 strong games with qbr over 110 too. Completely different styles, but consistency-wise he reminds me of Joe Ferguson.

They can't even develop who they have in house so I think it's a nonstarter. They blew Baker and blew it with Flacco this time around. At this point I seriously question if Stefanski has been a significant part of the problem with Watson? With Gabriel you can see it's half field reads and short to intermediate throws only. Is that helping or hurting him? I just don't trust Stefanski at this point.

They've also had a lot of injuries, though Berry has neglected it in the draft a bit. Getting Conklin back would help, stabilizing the quarterback with a more mobile one helps also. Would definitely take Berry over Beane for GM. The guy definitely pulls in stronger talent. Only big negative is how they handle their QB situation, especially with Shadeur this year. He should have got garbage time snaps yesterday. Rumor is Haslam had them draft Sanders and it feels like it because of the disdain those two have for him. Myles and Jeudy have both vouched for Sanders being first in last out and living in the OC's office to know every detail of every playcall. FO dysfunction.

Long shot, but going with Ewers might buy them a brief moment more. I think McDaniels has got the most out of Tua that anybody could, but he's just not good enough and that was apparent today. Terrible pocket awareness and choices at times. He should know better by now, just not good enough

Your philosophy of trying to equate everyone who enters this country illegally without a temporary visa as having the mindset of a violent criminal is truly ignorant and spineless. Why would people who come to this country for a better life including to make money, risk all that by exposing themselves before they could even place a vote? Why would they do this in large numbers? You are the one who posted on this issue. I would like you to present an argument on how this is a reasonable and significant (widespread) occurrence In Minnesota? Because all the social media crap you presented is outdated, ignorant, and mostly garbage.

Violent crime is too complex to really address. The rest of your examples are attempts to make money surreptitiously and not get caught. Why would an illegal go through the risk of getting caught first before committing the crime? Is there some evidence of a massive payoff if they successfully cast one vote?

This bill was passed in 2023 so you can review board of election reports of voter fraud and see how many Minnesota illegals committed the federal crime of voter fraud. Non-citizens are not allowed to vote and none of these laws gave them this right. It simply allowed illegals to obtain non-federal driver's licenses in hopes to prevent dangerous and illegal driving. There is a big difference between MN's automatic voter registration, which involves thorough vetting, and election day voter precinct registration. The weak point in election day precinct registration is that you must provide ID and proof of residency, but only sign a binding attestation form that you are a legal voter and not committing a federal crime. Ok. Let me ask you this. How does it make sense that an illegal, who is trying to make money, live, most often find a path to legal status and/or maintain residency, and most often has poor English skills (especially reading and writing), wants to risk exposing themselves to deportation by trying to fraudulently vote? In massive numbers?? Because the legal, non-citizen immigrants that I know hate having to submit to any government check of their identities. How are illegals driven in the opposite direction to shine a light on themselves while knowingly committing this federal crime? https://dps.mn.gov/divisions/dvs/license-and-id/dl-all The Driver’s License for All initiative expanded the accepted types of documentation required for Minnesotans to receive a standard driver’s license or identification (ID) card. Passed in 2023, Minnesota joined 18 other states, including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, to allow a standard driver’s license to be issued without proof of immigration status. Automatic Voter Registration: https://www.sos.mn.gov/elections-voting/register-to-vote/automatic-voter-registration/ Automatic voter registration is called automatic because of its convenience for applicants. In fact, the process of registering someone to vote under this new law is complex and involves multiple points of human verification. Since there is a 20-day opt-out period and a verification process, voter registration may take 4-6 weeks from when a person first applies for their state-issued ID. Minnesotans can check their voter registration status online. https://www.sos.mn.gov/elections-voting/register-to-vote/register-on-election-day/ https://www.sos.mn.gov/elections-voting/register-to-vote/ Who can vote in Minnesota: To vote you must be: A U.S. citizen At least 18 years old on Election Day (16 & 17 year olds can pre-register) A resident of Minnesota for 20 days Not currently incarcerated for a felony conviction Not under a court order that revokes your right to vote

I'm hoping him and Cignetti swap schools!😄

At this point in his career, Josh knows how to be smart with his running, and I highly doubt they're going to be overly critical when he chooses to do so. It's at least an equal choice on Allen's part IMO to save it for critical situations late. They're also not doing their tush push much with him this year. It's very possible that his body is taking too much punishment and everyone felt the need to scale it back, especially early in the season. WRT the flip pass, he was just about to be sacked.

The team had little fight or energy Monday. McDermott needs to first figure out if Babich's poor leadership is a significant part of that, then decide accordingly how to handle it. Different situation if the situation is bringing the entire team down.
