Defense has to be embarrassed.

They are simply stronger up front. Shove our D line around like they’re pee wee players.

I give up

Does this D have any pride?

They have to change something on D now.

My daughter is there watching her first game ever at the Ralph and we are going to be embarrassed.

You and Brownnand Star need to accept things like facts and science.

No he’s right. It’s a team sport and they let their team down.

We can’t stop the run. Wonder why?

I really hope Brown and Star are feeling good about themselves because their absence has already hurt their team.

We get dominated in the run game because Star is an idiot.

Thanks Star. Hope you’re happy.

Ok boys, let’s matriculate the ball down the field!

Brown. His absence is going to cost us.

I said before the season started we will not win the Lombardi because of Covid and having players miss games because they would not obey protocols and logic. Unfortunately this seems like it will be the case. If we lose to the Colts and/or Saints because of our O line issues, or because we are weaker in the run game because Star is out against Taylor on Sunday, we could not just lose a shot at home field but at the division given how the Patriots are playing. I hope the players who miss games through no choice but their own are proud.

It's possible Ford plays at RT. They have to know he's not strong enough at the point of attack to play RG.

The rules are the rules and by not following them you put your team in more jeopardy. If you foolishly decide against vaccination you put your team in more jeopardy, not to mention the obvious positive benefits. I think they'll play Douglas at RT and leave Williams at RG. They can't play Ford, they know that.

They're good. We're better, but they're good. They won't be an easy out. And we all know it.

I went back and forth on Duby. Another guy that deserved mention was Bobby Chandler.

Allen I can buy as #2 behind Kelly, with Kemp third and Fergy 4th. White? He's in there with Byrd, Egerson, James - he's at least in the discussion Poyer and Hyde? Saimes, Tony Greene, Henry Jones - Poyer and Hyde are top 5 Dawkins? Way behind Wolford, Barber, Peters; behind Dave Foley and Fina WRs: You have to have Reed and Moulds in your top two, have to have that, then Lofton, then Jerry Butler who may have been the best of all if he didn't get hurt. Diggs could get into the top three. To suggest Beasley would is laughable. Bass could very well wind up #1 but right now is behind Gogolak, Christie, and others LBs: Edmunds and Milano would have to prove they are better long term than a whole host of guys including, in the middle, Fletcher, Harry Jacobs, Conlan, Haslett, Shane Nelson, eugene Marve. And outside Milano would have to beat out Stratton, John Tracy, Bennett. Talley, Paup, Spikes just to name a few

Yes. Next question.

Ok boys, let’s matriculate the ball down the field!

I would put Brown at LT; Dawkins looks like he never really got over his Covid infection. Then put Doyle at RT, Williams at RG, and either Douglas at LG or Move Dawkins inside where he doesn’t have to deal with the speed rushers coining from outside. They won’t start Bates because with Feliciano out he’s the only backup C if Morse gets hurt, and we know Morse is susceptible to concussion. They should cut Ford.

God forgive me but I want the Fish to win.

I think it’s actually pretty simple. Our guys are physically weaker than the guys they play against. You can see it in the run game; they can’t generate enough force to move guys. You see it in pass blocking when guys are getting pushed straight back into Josh. I understand with Dawkins; I don’t think he’s really recovered from Covid. But the other guys? Doesn’t matter what the play call is or how the coach coaches if you get manhandled by the opposing players.
