@Mikie2timesyou can disagree- doesn’t make you less wrong. Von was a very good run defender throughout his career. That is a fact.

I’d rather go with Browning. He might actually be the better QB at this point. He kept them in the mix 2 years ago. He’s proven to be a gamer and pretty solid in the 4th qtr of game. Kirk was pretty terrible last season coming off injury

It’s be fun to watch the ravens trot out Lamar to pad his MVP stats in weeks 17-18 with a 3 game division lead and no chance at home field.

Von Miller was great vs the run. Don’t equate size vs ability

@Solomon Grundy James Cook >> Breece Hall yet?

I can recall some here that wanted him gone when he decided to sit out practice in training camp. Trade him! 🤣 good thing that didn’t happen. He’s a bad man. I think there’s only a handful of RBs could’ve gotten into the end zone on his breakaway run today.

He’s a force and the difference maker this defense needed. A healthy Bosa in the playoffs and we win the Super Bowl.

I usually avoid game day threads, but wtf! We have Josh Allen….why run cook on 3rd and long unless you planned on going for it on 4th?

Plus the fact that the odds of Tre being healthy come playoffs are slim and Hairston may not ever be up to speed this season, he may very well be our CB2 when it matters most

If he does that, I think we’ll have our WR1. I would be happy with 1 and very happy with 2.

Correct- their expectations are to win the Super Bowl either way. If you don’t win one with him, then you failed. If they had not made the trade- we’ll never know what would have happened. They may have drafted and signed players that could’ve gotten them a SB. Maybe not. What the trade does is put an expiration date (while parsons is on the team) on winning a SB. Without the trade, it’s much more difficult to put an expiration date on it as we’ll never know how long the assets would’ve contributed to the team.

IMO- it’s different based on the possible outcomes- which we will never know how it would’ve turned out. They could have used those assets on players and not won a SB too- that also would’ve been a failure. But then again- they may have landed the right players and won a SB. It’s very possible/likely that they don’t win a Super Bowl in either way, trade or no trade. grading a trade is based on results imo. If they don’t win the SB with Micah- then can be viewed as a failure and I would understand why. They failed in their end goal. That’s just how I see things. You see differently- all good

We’re talking about something subjective- whether a team “won a trade”. imo- It all depends on how high a bar the teams sets their bar. When the Bills traded for Diggs- we’re all fairly confidant that their main goal was to help Josh Allen become the best QB he can become. We weren’t a Super Bowl contender yet. Sure, they’d have liked to win a SB too, but supporting Josh was goal #1 imo. They accomplished that. When the Bills drafted Bruce- they were garbage and just adding building blocks for the franchises future was the goal. The packers have their QB and have paid him top dollar. They have some solid weapons under contract for the next few years and a HC they believe is their long term guy. I don’t believe that they gave up those picks and mortgaged that much cap in order to just get better on D. They could’ve signed several players this offseason if they just wanted to improve and would have lots more cap space and multiple draft picks to continue to add to their talent level regarding the bolded- the draft picks and salary cap space wouldn’t be used to get “a” player. They would be used to get several players. The cowboys had a mini dynasty because they hit on those assets acquired for “a” player. if they don’t win a Super Bowl with parsons- then they failed at achieving the goal that they have set for themselves. They have their QB and HC. Once you have them, you have one goal build to win a SB. No one will know what the assets traded away would’ve yielded had they held onto the them- but not winning a SB with him is an L in terms of their build. I get your points though and I don’t think that you’re wrong due to this being subjective. If I were the packers GM- and the team didn’t win a SB with parsons- I’d view that as a failure in my eyes.

It was a calculated tackle as well. He waited until Henry started to extend for the stiff arm and then batted it away to secure the tackle. Heady play

Based on the opponent, I’d prefer Strong start this week vs the Jets. He’s a better tackler and I expect the Jets to focus on the run, screens and short pass game vs our D. I also think strong would be more effective getting Fields down on his scrambles. The Jets WRs look to be Wilson, Tyler Johnson (who I like more than most) and Lazard. Stick Benford on Wilson and I don’t think those guys would be able to take consistent advantage of Strong in the pass game. On top of that, after missing 3 weeks of practice, I don’t think 3 days of limited practice is enough to get Tre back right. That said- I believe McD will start Tre if he dresses

How ironic And his uplifting brigade of sadness

Sad, but this has been the story of Ethan’s career at TBD.

Might be a smart move due to the Jets lack of WR talent. I thought Williams was a plus starter vs the run last season. Not so much vs the ravens though

Don’t be eating no wings with that on!! clean look and wish I could wear that one but I don’t trust myself!

Would be a waste of a promotion imo. Each player gets 3

It does so far- but they also faced 2 of the best pass rushes in the league. his OL is definitely resembling the Houston OL.

Just wait for the injury report a week from now
