  1. I think he was okay. I thought he was slow to react at times, especially in coverage, I don't think he will ever be a starter but I do think he can carve out a career as a key backup type player. He has the athleticism but seemed a little overmatched physically IMO and was chasing the play a bit. I am excited to watch his growth.
  2. Some here really liked Milton. Some also loved Polk and Baker.
  3. Alright so who makes a Rob Johnson trade for Milton?
  4. Came here to say the same thing. Joe Brady is also from the Sean Payton tree, so aside from his relationships already in the building, Davis Webb likely provides a good amount of continuity as well.
  5. He’s going to be okay. But He does scare me going into the playoffs. He is better than Damar, way more athletic, but he can be easily manipulated. On Von’s sack this week, it looked like he bit hard on a sluggo to Davante Adams, he was wide open for a likely TD if Rodgers isn’t sacked there. And it’s those coverage breakdowns that don’t typically happen with McD’s defensive scheme that is worrisome to me.
  6. This probably says more about the Bills than it does the Rams, unfortunately
  7. Mathis makes a good amount of sense for us. We were on him pre draft on some level. He also seems to be getting pushed out of the scheme there, but remember that he was drafted for Ron Rivera’s defense, so he should be a good fit here. Zeurlines pre draft comp was DaQuan Jones.
  8. Should just go to Tampa where he has been an impact player for Todd Bowles in the past.
  9. Jets for sure. I don’t think the Pats do. They are trying to build something and there are people who seem to be down on Mayo as HC. So he still has something to prove. Jets need a lobotomy.
  10. Don’t draft right tackles in the first round! Anyway they have tried to build the O line but have struck out with the players they chose. Have to keep trying, just find a top left tackle at the top of the draft and don’t waste your time on Rts and guards. Bears need a hard reset.
  11. Freaking Patriots. Cheating bastards
  12. As many assumed, Toohill back
  13. I dunno. I am ready for Kirk Cousins, New York Jet
  14. I thought Bishop looked really good in run support, but still needs some work in coverage for sure. But his athleticism is a huge upgrade on what we typically have out there. Elam I thought was okay. He's like an enigma miscast in this defensive scheme. Bishop is 100% the guy next year. I let both Hamlin and Douglas walk in the off-season.
  15. And won because of it.! That team was all about Brady, as we are all about Allen.
  16. I pile on McDermott quite a bit for his in game decisions, but I will say that creating a culture in which guys just want to win and do what it takes is actually pretty amazing. The receiver room guys have stepped up when their number was called. Look at what happened in SF when Greenlaw came back and Campbell threw a fit. Milano came back and Williams got demoted and just kept on grinding. That's a testament to coach and the culture he created. Diggs was a culture killer. What you are seeing here, as many have said, is addition by subtraction. Credit goes to McDermott and Beane for making those moves, drafting and bringing in culture guys. We may be on the precipice of something special.
  17. I feel like Brady will be offered that NO job because of his ability, familiarity and connections to Sean Payton. But, I will say that it would make sense for him to hang around Allen for a couple of more years and drive up the price for his services. The truth is that he has bounced around the league for awhile now and he was in the Trash heap after his time in Carolina. He is doing a tremendous job here. I could see him going the Ben Johnson way and being picky about opportunities out there. I hope he stays.
  18. The counter-bash stuff they were running is just absolutely filthy and linebackers and DEs had their heads spinning.
  19. This is a classic trap game. Bills struggled against the Pats last year and they are better this year. I feel good about it, but I think it is very difficult to play the same team twice in like 3 weeks, especially if it is a division opponent. That said, rookie QBs have no looked good against McDermott, so I think Maye could struggle.
  20. I could see him wanting to return to the Rams for another ride with them. He knows the offense and playing with Puka and Kupp could make him effective again.
  21. See for me it's that they aren't prepared for the moment. As a high school coach, we practice and walk through all scenarios throughout the year. So we know if we get the ball on the 1 yard line and time is of the essence, this is the play we are running. Again, I can't fathom how they are not prepared. They should NOT be stressed in those situations because they should be prepared for that situation all year. They get paid a lot of money to do this stuff. It's literally their livelihood. It's absurd that they aren't practicing in-game scenarios and specific game situations. Every person on that sideline should have been in lockstep in how they were going to handle the end of the game. They are not and it is a major problem. That's the difference between McDermott and great coaches who win Super Bowls.
  22. I work with a person of authority who can not do his job. Once the powers that be saw how inept he was, instead of firing him, they hired a secretary to take a bunch of the job off his plate. Once that wasn't enough they hired an assistant to take more off his plate. Then finally they took some of his responsibilities off of him and moved it to another department. And you know the rest, he still sucks at his job and makes more money than most. The powers that be are clutching to the idea that they hired the right guy instead of admitting their failure. This can't be where we are headed. At a certain point, things are just not working. So for coach, he doesn't call offensive or defensive plays, he doesn't coach a position, he has a specialist up top who tells him when to challenge, so now let's add a specialist to help him make critical decisions with time management? Seriously? So what does he actually do and what is the point of having him? Shades of office space Bob meetings.
  23. If I were optimistic this guy would change, this is a great outlook to have. I just don't see it. Two dud games this year, Rams and Ravens, and a game lost from boneheaded coaching, the Texans game. All three of those games are huge indictments on McDermott to go along with with his history of bad decision-making and his team showing up unprepared. The odds that this team will now lock-in and the coach will learn to make good decisions are very very low. He is who he is. Sometimes things get stale. Teams who make these mistakes and get out-physicaled weekly just do not win Super Bowls.
  24. I could see the Jets doing this 100% and it's not going to matter because they don't have a quarterback to make him look good. I would not hate this either.
