  1. He SHOULD be feeling pressure. Therefore he IS feeling pressure. I’ve said before that we don’t want McD to be our generation’s Marty Schottenheimer, God rest his soul. Great regular season records…nothing in the postseason.
  2. Championship squads are built on left tackles, edge rushers, and lockdown corners. And of course quarterbacks. I have zero problem with Beane zeroing in on edge rushers consistently, and nor should you.
  3. Every position is important and signing Trubisky at the amount we did is perfectly fine. Coach is very good at drafting and developing DB’s. We have a DB friendly system - except for the safeties. Damar is a shining example of someone being incapable of developing at S. In short, we must have 2-3 more safeties brought to camp, hoping that 1 is capable of starting and maybe two backups. This is the most concerning problem going into the rest of the offseason.
  4. What’s McGovern’s contract? We overpaid for Morse because we had to overpay for Morse. Morse is a good center but nothing special, especially when considering his concussion history. He’s on borrowed time. We moved on at the right time and got lucky this past season.
  5. There’s no pipeline to fill. The OL has 9 spots on the opening day roster. Guys we pick, when we don’t have a spot open, are just picked up on the waiver wire at cut down day. Just look at the last 4 final cuts.
  6. Not happening. Edward’s was re-signed to start. We are not investing early-round draft capital on a position of strength. Bates was traded for draft capital, he was the heir apparent at C and became expendable when Edwards signed, because Edwards signed. Edwards is a more-than-capable G and McGovern will do fine at C. End of story. No IOL in rounds 1-3 and probably until the sixth round. (Unless they’re true to the board in Rd 5.) And God I hope I’m right. Let Kromer develop like he is now. He’s a very underrated/highly regarded positional coach, if that’s even possible. I think it may be more of him wanting to do his stuff his way and some HC’s get bothered by it. I say let him work his magic. Sorry for the ramble…
  7. Thank you for the clarification. I was not aware of this.
  8. Allen is in Paris. He would have to be present to sign an extension. Odd timing on Allen’s part and I hope it’s not a sign of trouble ahead.
  9. I have in my possession a game-worn Carl Byrum jockstrap and I refuse to speak any further about how it came into my possession.
  10. Do not be surprised if DeJean is who they covet. Just a hunch…and flame away.
  11. He’s a piece of garbage. But the NFL loves the little SOB because he’s a walking highlight reel. Screw the Dolphins for keeping such a POS on their squad. Because he’s a scumbag. He ain’t normal at all. He’s a damned thug. A freaking knuckle dragging troglodyte. Screw the ‘phins.
  12. I’d say his spending weekends in jail for his previous conviction proves otherwise. As a Texan, I’d ask you to reconsider your generalizations.
  13. You understand professional football. Great post. It’s all about exploiting mismatches, usually ones that are created by an effective coach. It sounds too simple, yes, but it really boils down to this. I liken it to British Fighting Squares when it’s boiled down to its simplest form. Basically, win your matchup when able or consolidate onto the next opponent. This concept is especially important when you judge an offensive line as a unit.
  14. Exactly. He’s such a nice guy that he’d have a hard time bus-rolling someone.
  15. Roster spots. That’s why we won’t. An edge defender can play as a rookie, many receivers take a season to develop.
  16. Vet minimum with a compounding $million bonus for each sack. Ex: sack 1 - $1mil…sack 2…$2mil…sack 3 $4mil…sack 4 $8mil. The kicker? They ALL have to be wins. Every game, if we lose, he’s got his vet minimum. It would be absolutely legendary for this offer and a real jerk assassin like Suh to have the story be about him.
  17. I’m not gonna post a link, because I don’t want that smarmy SOB to get clicks, but he believes the offensive Offside shouldn’t have been called. This is from a freaking lawyer! Pattie Cakes is upset because he thinks that flags shouldn’t affect the outcomes of games. Well, which cave has that moron been living in, since his career began? Unfreakingreal.
  18. Holy crap that’s funny. It took waaay too long to get Fischer out. It’s like he had some spell on the NFL to keep his job.
  19. And we now see why arm length is really important at DT.
