  1. Darby was on a hot streak at the beginning of the year (mostly out of fear of getting torched like he did all preseason) but his play quickly cooled off. I think he played really well for a rookie but he is highly overrated. He's no Gilmore, and Gilmore is not elite no matter what he thinks. Both are very solid corners but they are not in the elite all pro category

     

    Exactly. We have hot corners but they do get burned a couple times a game

  2.  

    You know who else comes with that package deal? Doug Marrone.

     

    That's what allegedly has been communicated to the Titans.

     

    I personally wouldn't purchase that package of people but the overall "concept" is a good one. The key is finding a combination that has "modern" talent, not talent from yesteryear if you go this route.

     

    Enough with the "old" school talent. Polian. Wolf. Holmgren. Policy. Savage. No. It didn't work with Marv, either.

     

    It's a young man's game.

     

    I agree with your whole post, but I'm not sure how much modern success correlates with new or old talent. Wade Phillips is still great, Chip Kelly still sucks.

  3. There will ALWAYS be injuries and every other team seems to get by just fine when it happens. The depth here sucks and that goes to Whaley specifically.

     

    Yep - look at other teams who have elite QBs. They still work every year to make sure their backup is ready to fill in. In the past 5 years, the Packers, Broncos, Patriots, etc. have all been to the playoffs despite their QB1 being injured for a couple games during the season. And somehow we are holding onto EJ with the hope that he becomes our franchise guy. He handed us two losses early in the season that quite frankly may have cost us playoffs. If we beat the Jags we would have played the Chiefs, Eagles, and Skins with a lot more heart knowing we were in the hunt.

  4. They already have Petty ridin' the pine. Bills > than Jets @ QB, RB, WR, DB, P *= When healthy.

     

    I think the Marshall/Decker duo is currently better than our squad but ours is younger with a higher ceiling in the next 5 years.

     

    But you're right, McCoy/Williams > Ivory/Ridley/Powell

     

    Our DBs are arguably similar, but again ours are probably headed in a better direction

     

     

    Bills might be good on paper but any argument sounds like a homer when they are 8-5 and we are 6-7

  5. INconceivable. Only losers tank.

     

     

    Imo

     

    Truth.

     

    However, I do believe that we should give some fliers a chance to play for roster spots next year. Once we're officially eliminated from contention, we should probably give EJ a start too. I've seen all I need to see from Taylor - unless we can get our hands on someone like Matt Stafford (which we won't) TT should be the starter next year with no "preseason battle".

  6. None of them.

     

    Go watch this year the Patriots, Broncos, Steelers, Cardinals, Seahawks, and Panthers. That is what a playoff team looks like.

     

    We don't, and haven't in a very long time. The defense in the late 90's was awesome, Everyone knows about the late 80's, early 90's. My dad tells me the mid 60's teams were fantastic to watch.

     

    We don't deserve the playoffs. Period. The sad thing is i have no hope Rex will change anything.

     

    Our league-wide standings don't always reflect the quality of our team. We have been playing perennial superbowl contenders twice a year for the last decade and a half, meanwhile Andrew Schmuck gets in every year playing against the Titans, Texans, and Jags.

     

    However I do agree that we would get our rear ends handed to us in a playoff game against some of these real contenders
