  1. I think Josh making strides as a pocket passer, reading the field and making good, quick decisions vs. the blitz, is going to determine whether we can become legit superbowl contenders or not. Right now he's so dynamic if/when he escapes the pocket but games like today show where he's at when he doesn't. We can draft/sign all the good players we want but until the pocket passing improves there's a hard ceiling for this team.
  2. Our defense is certainly legit. Feel like we already knew that though.
  3. Great effort by the defense today. They had poor field position a bunch and only gave up 257 total yards, 61 of which came on one play.
  4. Give Lamar credit. He's a very cool customer in the face of a pass rush.
  5. Our receivers are all smurfs. Why are we throwing it up for grabs there??
  6. Josh has been awful today but think we need to put the ball in his hands and live with the results. We're not getting push in the run game and Ravens are basically stacking the line on us. Go shot gun. Go early so Daboll can read the field.
  7. A little OT but this 49ers vs. Saints game is lit!!
  8. If I was opposing OC I'd only run WR screens against us. It's our kryptonite.
  9. Hauschka responding with the only statement that matters after the failed waiver claim this week.
  10. For those keeping score that was Knox's 437th drop that would have led to a first down this year. Edit: at least we responded with points. Need another turnover from the D.
  11. My options weren't very good. Came down to Houston at home or Pittsburgh on the road. I didn't see Denver being able to throw all over the field like this.
  12. They're about to boot me out my eliminator pool. They could have picked a better week to be better than I think ?
  13. They're second overall in yards and first in points by a mile. There hasn't been a whole lot of struggling.
  14. Defense has been really good so far,. Keeping us in it. Ravens offense is no joke.
  15. If they're blitzing six that means there's someone open on a hot route.
  16. The pass was terrible but the decision to throw that up for grabs into double coverage was worse
  17. This start is eerily similar to the NE game. When Josh is bad he's really freaking bad.
  18. Love to have Rivera on our coaching staff. That man would bring a lifetime's worth of knowledge and relationships for us to leverage. I wouldn't be surprised if McD has already called him to let him know there'd be a place for him next year if he wanted it.
  19. Anyone else not really that concerned about it? I agree he's probably not a RT and given how often we scheme help for him the coaching staff seems unsure about the situation too. Spain is UFA this off season. We can still get value out of the pick shifting him inside, and he can still play T in a pinch. I'd rather let Spain walk and find a decent RT in FA. Edit: plus we still have Nsekhe under contract next year.
  20. To clarify, I meant career game one Murray was a better player than career game one Allen. I don't think it would have mattered what offense you put them in -- Murray was just a little more NFL ready. Today Josh looks like the better player though I know an Arizona fan who would debate that.
  21. McD isn't running the offense, Daboll is. Before that it was Dennison. Our team philosophy is to establish a running game, play mistake free and let the defense do their job which has frequently kept the opposition score down and meant we didn't need to abandon the run. There's part of your answer. Josh being raw last year isn't revisionist history it's generally accepted opinion. You're on an island on this one. Most people thought he was raw coming into the draft. He looked very raw in camp and preseason, and it wasn't until after returning from injury that he started showing consistent ability as a passer, and even then he did a lot of his damage on the ground. It wasn't until this year, and really, post NE that he's started to look like a good NFL QB. Clearly there's something about Peterman. McD got swindled and then Gruden did the same. McD has done so much else right. Pretty sure we can forgive him for missing on a 5th round pick.
