Meh.
You can play this game with every D lineman in the league. Every one pick up garbage and coverage sacks. That being said I wouldn't break the bank on him. He is a very good fit in this D.
1. OL. Even with the improvements on the OL this past off season they still came up lame when it mattered. Ford is a Guard in the NFL and we to accept and embrace it. Dawkins is an adequate Tackle but nowhere near Pro Bowl caliber. RT is in his future as we need to acquire a true LT.
2. Knox is a lock. Rookie contract with potential upside and can also block well.
3. Cant argue this point. Trade for Green or sign Cooper and draft a stud.
4. Also, Gore has to go. I appreciate his mentoring Motor and his vet leadership but he's done.
I enjoy a bottle of Yuengling during a game like a lot of folks.
But something tells me these idiots were drinking harder and more frequently than I ever could.
Remember Cody, tough times don't last.
Tough SOB's do!! Head up Rook, we support you!
I really like Josh but I'll admit when you have accuracy issues as a QB a WR with height, size and hands is a best friend in waiting. DK would've been a great fit and I'm sure McBeane won't make the same mistake this off season. You have to be Brees/Rodgers accurate when you have smallish receivers like Smoke and Sauce.
I thought this as well. I felt the D played more than well enough to win. If you can hold a playoff team with that type of star power to 18 points in their house, what more do you want? The coaches did not trust Josh more than the D. They should've let him ball like the half but decided to protect instead of increase point production.
They pitched a shut out the first half? If Daboll didn't go conservative it should've been 24-0 instead of 16-0. The D could've pinned their ears back and teed off on Watson. 16 points is nothing in the NFL. You're on the road with a 16 point lead and you go conservative? Totally on McD and Daboll.
Those blaming Josh are clueless. McD and Daboll put training wheels on him and neuter the offense with conservative play calling all 2nd half assuming the D would keep the ship afloat, WRONG! Josh played well enough to win. If you have no faith in him why the hell did you draft him.
And why the hell did you not kick the FG? It wasn't like it was a 60 yarder! Total implosion! So pissed right now.
This is on Daboll, McDermott or whoever decided to play it ***** foot allowing them life instead of choking them out. This is the NFL, playing it safe at this stage will only burn you.
Need to score here and show them they will not go away.
We'll see how much you guys like us after we sign Derrick Henry in the off season. ?
Jk, no way you let that beast get away.
Looking forward to the rematch,..................... in Buffalo!
