Sojourner

Good question. If the rumors are false about Daboll & McD then if he gets canned in NY, which I doubt, I wouldn’t put it past him returning. Realistically that’s a tough call. Maybe they promote within and give Lubrick a shot? He’s been on the team since Sean’s arrival. Personally, I wouldn’t be opposed to Klint Kubiak if he isn’t retained by the new HC in NOLA. Ben Johnson, the ultimate hope, is a pipe dream.

Probably the same as that other thread that was on its way to 100 pages before trade deadline…

There’s a few in the practice squad that I’d like to see. Cine and the combination of his time at Georgia and a very recent first rounder that’s been given up on. The other guys are Logue, Hardy and Gore Jr.

Well he’s been healthy the past 2 years. 100% he played in all the games for 2024. Great run defender and relentless effort. The numbers aren’t eye popping elite but his best games this year did come against the better teams on the RBacks schedule

I don’t disagree but I do feel those 3 would easily put up 1100 yards, 40 receptions and 400 receiving yards in todays game. Lynch>Henry>Cook>McGahee Henry had his best year as a receiver in tandem with his rushing high, 2002. Marshawn would easily thrive. He’s not far removed. That dude was no slouch as a receiver. Especially during that 3 year prime Seattle had during their NFCC and back to back super bowls. Now while I don’t think they’d excell as much in the passing game as cook, you give them 6 man fronts like Cook and the guys see regularly because of Josh? Those guys would eat. Handsomely too. Again, I like cook. A lot. But having Josh in comparison to Bledsoe/Van Pelt/Johnson/Losman/Edwards that the others had is rough. Literal difference between night and day.

lmao that’s a rough argument though my friend. None of those backs had a guy like Josh where you worry about the pass. The best was probably Travis when he had Bledsoe but Bledsoe was on the downward trend of his career. His first year with the aging Moulds and Peerless was it. Put Cook on those teams and he isn’t as productive. Certainly not to the tune of 1400 yards that Henry was. Don’t think he puts up the same numbers as the other guys either. Close but he’s not replicating his in an era with no real QB threat and punishing tackling. I like cook, a lot. But you can’t compare the situations given who the QBs were and Josh.

Crash Half Full. Never heard of it? Yeah, me neither.

“If Dion Dawkins is free… if Dion Dawkins is free… if Dion Dawkins is free…” Is he free?!? Seriously thought it was skipping or glitching out. Clicked on the video and was getting something out of the desk drawer when he started that part 😂

Someone at work made a statement when we were watching the Michigan/Bama game. Now, not verbatim but it went something along the lines of: Mahomes is no longer head and shoulders above the other guys in the league; Allen/Jackson/Burrow/Hurts (lol@hurts). He had one of the best peaks you’ll see at the footbal position (‘18-‘22) but has come back to “normal”. Whilst I don’t agree with it entirely, I do feel his point about those 5 years were incredible. It was Pat and everyone else. Josh was the only one close. I’ll give it another year before agreeing with the rest as he’s barely in the prime of his career but looking at this year and last year, super bowls removed, he’s not exactly TB12 territory where he’s taking subpar players and elevating the offense to insane proportions. The only guy I’ve seen do that on Brady levels was Cam Newton, love him or hate him, on that Super Bowl 50 run. It was Greg Olsen and pretty much nothing else to throw to. Ted Ginn, Cotchery, Funchess & Corey Brown. Yeesh. These last two season the Chiefs have had great, not elite, play by Mahomes. The difference is the defense has made it easier for them in crunch time situations. Can you lean on Mahomes? Absolutely. He’s still one of, if not the best to play the game right now but winning another, record setting, Super Bowl will be an absolute team effort from the Chiefs; as it is any team. The Bills? Josh has taken a backseat by design in comparison to other years. That’s the difference. The other one being if we get a Lombardi I hate to say it but it will be a likely be an effort by Josh and the Bills.

This should be the game day 48 and rotation. Great job brother!

Think you might be right. However, Hamlin is still the better player right now. Not as gifted physically as Cole but he certainly doesn’t appear to have the mental lapses that Bishop does. That could be the difference between going home or making the Super Bowl. All it takes is one busted play. Personally, I have no problem with either dude playing as you can advocate reasons for and against each.

Im not a huge fan and feel that team isn’t that great collectively. They have some solid players across the board on both sides of the field but it doesn’t seem to come together like years past. I’d rather skip them than any other team. If they get their ground game rolling, you’re in trouble more than Lamar & the Raven and like @Warriorspikes51 said above, if their defense has a good game it might seal the deal. In terms of passing, Burrow is in elite territory. Partly because he’s had to be but the execution still has to take place. I’d pick Josh and the gang over any team but opponent wise, Cinci and Baltimore are a no thanks. Ironically, we may have to play them both lol

Yardage so far: OSU: 390 Oregon: 64 Thats f-ing absurd lol

The Jackson kid from Arkansas is a monster of a human being. Groot size but way more polished rusher. If not him Scourton or his counterpart @ A&M, Stewart, wouldn’t be a bad choice. For where it stands right now they’re the guys that are higher talent available at our pick.

Seems they matched the uniforms to the on field play ahead of time. That’s quite impressive if I do say so myself lol

Absolutely. They don’t look the part like they have been at all let alone the #1 team in the nation. This game has turned into a pretty awful watch in terms of what was anticipated. Unless you’re a OSU fan of course lol

If he wasn’t playing to win or try and get another assessment of his best players he shouldn’t be a head coach. That whole team should be doing their best to try and beat the best the division, conference and league has to offer. I know we did during Tommy and Billy’s days. Even if we weren’t successful lol To our guys. Hopefully starters on both sides of the field play a solid amount of drives. If not the whole first half. Unlikely, but you never know.

Happy New Year to you and yours and everyone else around the globe. May this year be bountiful, merry and kind in every way possible. Stay safe, stay blessed ❤️

Cine, Hardy and Logue for me. Just a head start on game reps for next year.

Yeah, I think it’s simply the weather and the fact it’s not a “big city” that out people off. You’re not far from Toronto if you’re missing out on that life. Plus, the cold weather can add a beauty you miss in hotter climates. Plus, Lake Erie is awesome for all kinds of activities.

No different than before. They’re ok. And that’s all we really need for Josh and the gang. As long as they can get some stops 20% of the game, we’ll be good.

Who ya gonna call?!? LINEBACKERS!!!!

Unless you’re a football fan who’s in their late 20’s. Grew up a Pats fan, followed Tom to the Bucs and now has transitioned to a Chiefs fan lol Sad thing is, I know 2 people like that. No surprise their father is the same.

Oddly enough, the guys we have on the roster seem to be best suited at playing the strong position. However, if you’ve got one who’s physically best suited to play the free then that would be Cole imo. I don’t think it’ll happen but it won’t surprise me if they add a guy in the off-season if things aren’t solid during the playoffs.

Dan Campbell and his boys looked to bite the wrong kneecaps there…
