So we admit it is shabby at the very least.

So Donte Whitner?

I’ve been told that was in reference to the McRib being back

Yesterday felt like a drought game for sure. The opponent making the right halftime adjustments, us sticking to our guns, waiting for our QB to seal the deal but instead throwing mystery picks, the D who carried us all game getting gassed from being out there all day falling behind and watching the game slip away. Back when field goal deficits were insurmountable. Vintage Fitzpatrick/Tyrod years.

It's hard to be Edmunds agnostic. He's got a very evangelical fanbase.

Between the CBS cameraman and Josh's caterpillar lip, idk what was more infuriating.

But what everyone isn't thinking about is all the plays Edmunds took away just by being tall. Then there's all the plays he took away by having a wingspan. Then he gets credit for being the defensive captain. That's worth $20 million a year, right?

If I'm the jets I'd go for 2

should have just pushed them in the end zone

Edmunds misses a game, no big deal. Milano is out, disaster

Good play for Cook

that mustache needs to go. been nothing but bad juju

Kareem Hunt’d rolls off the tongue better.

Not really. Earlier in his career was a pro bowler. His play made it clear. Now it must be explained in a debriefing every week how his size did something, but wouldn't allow him to wrap up a tackle or escape a block. Yes, he clearly has weaknesses. The staff has made peace with his deficiencies and shuffled the defense to compensate. Thus the "he only does what's asked of him" line that we get so often. If what was asked of him was to take one side of the field while Milano took the other, this wouldn't be a topic. Also we traded up to get him. So of course he would get every opportunity to prove McBeane right. And early on, it looked like a home run. My main issue with Edmunds, is that he doesn't seem to have progressed or gained instinct. I want him to succeed. Perhaps it's the Baker Mayfield scenario where he came into the league at his ceiling and I'm just being unreasonable. But that's why I bristle at calls for him to be resigned at some crippling cap number or downplaying his whiffs. In the end, one can only be so upset with a Top 2 defense on a 6-1 team.

We should all be as lucky as Edmunds. I wish that any time my performance was called into question, people just referenced my height/length and it counted as a valid point. Or better yet, my boss said "think of all the accidents he doesn't have." His height/length is only an asset if he uses it. When he's sucked into blocks, over pursues, or doesn't use his pteranodon wingspan to wrap up Aaron Jones, he could be 8 feet tall and it doesn't help. The worst indictment of that argument is that Milano is considered undersized and yet his contributions are never in doubt.

That old chestnut. Everyone is so worked up over nothing. Every year there's a preseason star. Nobody wants our PS players like Blackshear and Hodgins.

If we were really concerned about the moral integrity of the rich, we'd keep a closer on Congress. But he did the most unconscionably bad thing we couldn't possibly ignore: which was field a subpar football product.

Love how Beane waits until the end like an Ebay auction

Two cups of

Did i miss Josh throwing an ugly pick on the knee down?

Edmunds with a tackle and a pass breakup. Credit

WTF did their DBs say to get in their heads all game. It worked so well and it’s infuriating

Poyer out and suddenly Rodgers wants to sling it
