Yes. They have issues. We call these issues "injuries". Both starting probowl safeties, our 1st round CB and an all pro CB all riding the pine. Last year's #1 pick at DE who's having a breakout season also unavailable. There's 5 big issues right there. It's one thing to have a couple guys nursing bumps and bruises, but that's a devastating injury toll that would sidetrack ANY team. Even the other guys that came back probably aren't 100%. What's the mystery here?

I can't get too mad at Motor. Any time a defender gets his helmet on the ball like that, it's going to come loose 90% of the time or some such number.

The decision to go for 4th and 2 cost us the game.

Because our OL isn't very good. We are a passing team, but there's no question that we'd be so much better if we ran more to keep defenses honest. You don't need an excuse or a garbage QB to run. We've just neglected it.

And yet another injury. Rousseau was playing well too. I hope itwon't take too long.

1. The entire OL 2. Kaiir Elam 3. The Injury Bug

He's a hair's width above average for a NFL starting DT. He won't be selling insurance any time soon and I doubt he'll ever be invited to a probowl. We need to focus more on the OL.

No.

I don't see how adding WR's is going to improve the awful blocking up front.

If the OL had not played like cheerleaders, we would have won. Having all 3 all pro candidates in our secondary sidelined by injury is also taking a big toll. Milano sat too. The secondary will be fine when everyone is healthy again. The OL is our achilles heel and a lot of opposing DC's are going to be exploiting that in the 2nd half of the season. The DL didn't play as well as they could have, but they are still solid. It wasn't their best game, but they still weren't as awful as the OL. If Beane isn't all in on upgrading the right side of that OL for '23, it will be a lost opportunity. Brown's bad ankle is no excuse either because he's pretty bad too. Yes Josh could have played much, much better, but he had pressure on him nearly every time he dropped back. I can't overstate how poorly our OL played.

Our OL is so bad today. This has to be our top priority in 2023. Josh is playing poorly, but the OL isn't helping at all.

Gilliam has become a top 5 FB. I know that's a low bar, but it still helps.

Well Pat Mcafee says I'll love him. I hope so. I think they are not impressed with J Cook. I'll trust Beane on this.

Overall average RB with very good speed. Not sure why we need a J Cook clone, though.

He's a below average box S with little pass defending skill. I suspect we'll only see him in run situations.

If they want to get pass happy, that's ok with me.

No it isn't. Fans are often unrealistic. He's not going to sell out the future to suit your fantasies.

No we don't. We need OL help. That's our Achilles heel. A veteran S if Poyer is going to miss time. We don't need anyone to takes snaps from Davis. The OP suggests otherwise while ignoring the fact that he missed time and wasn't 100% for much of the season so far. Allen wasn't at his best, but he was harrassed by the pass rush all night.

The Meathead Award goes to fans who hate on players for making mistakes while trying their best.

But they're good, neighborly alchoholics and they share. What goes around, comes around. It's not automatic, but it improves the odds when you treat others right.

Derek Carr is going to be traded this offsdason. Wow the Raiders are AWFUL!!! Just goes to show you that you have to build through the draft or you get the 'dream team' that can't get out of their own way. 24-0 loss to the Aints? I know NO has talent, but they have no QB. Will Nathaniel Hackett save his job? I don't think he will. Bad hire IMO. I thought he was terrible here too and Marrone even fired him in JAX.

Thanks for reminding us that Kareem Hunt is a name and the title of this thread.

Singletary and the entire defense. This game features 2 very good defenses and Singletary's success will set up enough game changing plays to tilt the final score in our favor. GB will play with determination, but the Bills will show that they are made of sterner stuff. This Bills team has heart.

No one. Don't you folks have anything better to do?

Maybe OL help or depth at TE and RB. Maybe a veteran S on a 1 year deal? I'd say the OL is still our biggest weakness. I don't see OBJ coming here unless there is an injury and he is the replacement. Just don't give up any serious draft capital at this point.
