LABILLBACKER

Josh again "as usual" will be asked to be Superman and outscore teams with a marginal wr room and a RB who drops half his passes. Yay....we ask so much every year from this McDermott defense, yet they constantly get injured or underperform. We must have the worst conditioning staff on the face of the earth.

When the dust settles, McB will look back a realize how stupid it was to not draft at least one more wr last april.

He can't be any worse than our last Davis.

Pefivetfiveman....you know

Yup, they had every opportunity to draft a 2nd wr and they chose not to. No one to blame but themselves. Claypool is gone. MVS looks like a joke. Who knows what the hell we have in Shavers/Shorter? It's basically Kincaid and 3 wrs. Sign him to a cheap 1 yr deal and see what happens?

Yup....inside the 5, I'm targeting Kincaid or Coleman every time. This obvious long term issue is why we rely on Josh running it in so much.

You're right...if he continues to make focus mistakes, he won't even have that role. He'll be lucky to be a change of pace RB2. I'm hoping to be wrong but he's trending that way with Davis's play.

I think in the near future Cook will be relegated to a 3rd down RB. He's talented but lacks focus. Davis will be the #1RB down the road.

Too bad...he came in with a decent attitude. Now with him gone and MVS looking like stone hands again, we're starting to get a little thin at WR? This is why I wanted that 2nd drafted wr (Franklin) last April.

Shut him down until 9/8...let him rest and pray he doesn't get hurt against the Cardinals....

Tyreek might beat him in the 40 but would get smoked in the 100.

I won't deny it would've been real helpful to have better overall coaches from top to bottom during that 90's run. No excuse not getting at least 1 with all these HOFers. Chuck was an idiot and an extreme buffoon, but Marv's incessant war stories and mottos could've been replaced with actual strategy. It's no different now with McD's process/ culture overwhelming any semblance of a strategic advantage.

Yup, I'd sign Wilson over Trubisky/ Beuchele combined.

That was his one and only good season(2018). He put up decent numbers in 2020 but way below 18'. Like many here have said, if we need him for more than a couple games, then the season is already over. I thought Milton would've been a very cheap player you could develop as a solid backup to Josh. But we keep signing these vet "retreads" like Barkley, Keenum, Kyle A or Trubisky. When in theory we should've already drafted a good 5th/6th round backup. Oh well?

I think after watching Trubisky, it's officially time to land a young, promising #2.

LB's- slight improvement if Milano & Bernard stay healthy. QB, RB, TE, CB - all the same as I don't see any drastic drop off or improvement in any of these groups. DLine, S, Wrs- of these 3 the safety room is my biggest concern. Not sold on Hamlin at all and hoping Bishop can get up to speed soon. Von will not achieve what Floyd did last season. AJE still drips of mediocrity. The DLine will be the teams 2nd biggest issue. I think there will be a small drop in receiving efficiency, BUT I can see Josh eventually developing very good chemistry with Samuel, Shakir & Coleman. OL- TBD?

A lot of good our safety leadership did us in the playoffs v KC/ Cincy. I want athleticism, speed and the ability to make splash plays.

Coleman....speed & winter wardrobe.

I'm actually good with your top 6 wrs. Keep MVS and unleash him in the playoffs. Stick Claypool on the PS. I think Hamler will be our returner. We'll have plenty of reliable possession receivers.

Relax guys...we're hardly doomed. I used the term snakebit because we've run into a little bad luck. I know we have depth but it's also alot of unproven "new player" depth. We need all hands on deck so McD can determine the best 53.

Way to take the term snakebit and exaggerate it into doom. Jesus, get a grip.

Well so much for Claypool & Bishop having an impact this year. I swear this team is snakebit.

When is Claypool's toe going to heal. This kids NFL clock is about to expire.

Josh is so incredibly smart and polished when it comes to media "bait" questions. Just another part of him that makes him legendary.

Did Tremaine make any splash plays 😁
