You have mastered time travel? Do tell!!!

….and been grateful.

Maybe they will consolidate into a magnificent palace in LA when Josh insists upon a trade there to accommodate his wife’s career! Don’t blame me, I read it here first.

They have to account for him regardless, I appreciate having more flexibility. But I agree I want to get him the ball where he can use his vision and speed to make the BIG splash plays.

I’m not sure if the problem is the talent of players, or the quality of depth. When we get to the playoffs it seems our defense is decimated by injuries. Part of that may come from being fast but “smallish”, but we seem to run out of “guys”. We should not be interrupting AJ Klein’s vacations to help us in the playoffs. Maybe going so deep on defense in this year’s draft helps that, because I’m as sick of it as anyone.

I don’t want him blocking all the time, but he has to at least be adequate enough so as not to tip off the D regarding what we are running. If he’s a blocking liability he hurts us, and if the D knows he’s sneaking out into the flats it makes it easier on them. I don’t want any “tells” because he’s not competent at an important aspect of the game. He doesn’t have to be great, but at least adequate to keep the opponents honest.

Yes, they suck so badly we are tied with the Ravens as SB favorites for the upcoming season (FanDuel), just ahead of the Eagles then the Chiefs. You can be unhappy with various things, but I think when you say they suck, you lose credibility. Just because it’s not what you want does not mean anything sucks. We are fortunate to be so close as a team, but it seems to anger some of the natives that we haven’t gotten over the hump….yet. We have some weak spots, but we do not suck.

I think I get it just fine, but I’m also ready to move on.

Philosophical? I see it as right and wrong, which is pretty simple.

It was something like that, but I’m not going looking for it. For what it’s worth, multiple people got the same impression, so why might that be? EDIT: It was too easy. “Ugh. No …it’s not! Think of this discussion like the deliberations we’d be having in the jury room. The question I’m asking you, my fellow jury member, is who should receive the proceeds from those damages? ” Why should there be ANY question who should receive the funds? That was just one post from a 2 second search. .

Well, I believe you said it would be easier to swallow if the money went to a charity, or something like that. For some reason….

I think he’s just upset that he got in line for the pitch forks, but the torch line moved much faster. He’s disenchanted by the process we use, and he seems to be giving up. Letting the process play out is not part of our typical process. It can be confusing.

Why would you assume any of that? The first 3 guys in the 2024 draft got hurt (Keon and Carter showed flashes pre-injury), the 4th contributed and there is other talent being developed. The 2025 class has yet to play a down. Did I miss the sarcasm font?

I doubt that’s what they call it on the brochure, but….yeah, I think that might be what he means. 🤷‍♂️

You never fail to meet expectations, I’ll give you that, sadly.
